Are you someone who always chooses the strain with the highest percentage of THCa? If you answered yes, I'm here to tell you that percentage isn't everything! Now I know what you're thinking: THCa percentage matters because it can determine how potent the high will be. A strain testing at 12% THCa may feel different than a strain testing at 35% THCa as it is a big difference in strength.

Delta 8:
Delta 8 THC is a minor cannabinoid, occurring in the plant in very small concentrations. Delta 8 THC is also known to be a degraded form of THC, and is not directly produced by cannabinoid-synthesizing enzymes within the plant. When THC is stored for a period of time, it degrades into delta 8 THC.
Possible Benefits of Delta 8:
Pain relief: Delta-8 THC has been shown to have pain-relieving properties, which can be helpful for those suffering from chronic pain conditions.
Reduced anxiety: Delta-8 THC may help to reduce anxiety and promote relaxation.
