What is HHC?
HHC is a THC relative that has long been popular in science but has been largely ignored by cannabis users. Commercial production of HHC has only just begun, so it is not widely known.
Hemp-derived HHC has gained popularity in recent years. What makes HHC special is how it is processed. HHC doesn’t occur naturally in the hemp plant but can be synthesized in a lab from existing cannabinoids. This is a great alternative to delta 8 and delta 10 because of its legality.
How is HHC produced?
In the 1940s, Roger Adams synthesized the first molecule of HHC. To make it, he added hydrogen to THC and altered its physical properties. HHC is the perfect choice for individuals looking to consume less THC and still get the same psychoactive effects as smoking marijuana.
HHC (Hydrogenated Hydrocarbon Compound) is the new delta-9 THC distillate, achieved through state-of-the-art molecular hydrogenation. HHC is about a decade ahead of its time and provides us with the ability to formulate without the thermal instabilities or degradation that affect other extraction methods. HHC is fully decarboxylated and 100% activated THC.
Does HHC get you high? Does it have side effects?
HHC is a kind of tricky cannabinoid. Although it’s chemically similar to THC, it doesn’t produce the same effects on the body. If it’s produced in the lab, an HHC batch is a mix of active and inactive molecules. The active molecules bind well with your body’s cannabinoid receptors; the others don’t have much effect. When your body produces HHC, it makes only “mildly active” HHC.
HHC is the most abundant form in the cannabis plant and is a THC isomer. However, while delta 9 binding produces more psychoactive effects than delta 8, HHC is approximately 3x the potency of both of them combined. Users generally describe the HHC high as somewhere between delta 8 and delta 9 THC.
HHC (also known as Hybrid Hybrid) is wack. Although users report similar side effects to delta 9 THC users: anxiety, paranoia, dry mouth, dry and red eyes, hunger, and insomnia. Buy HHC Products online from the most trusted brand Wild Orchard Hemp.
Is HHC detectable in a drug test?
HHC is a pharmacologically active metabolite of THCA. There is some evidence that HHC does not metabolize into 11-hydroxy-THC, which is the breakdown substance that many drug panels test for.
Does HHC have medical benefits?
Hexahydrocannabinol (HHC) is a minor cannabinoid present in the Cannabis plant. While it’s not as widely studied as some of the other cannabinoids, initial research reveals that HHC may be a powerful therapeutic agent with potential applications as an analgesic and anti-cancer treatment.
How long will HHC remain legal?
It is unclear whether or not HHC is legal under federal law. The 2018 Farm Bill legalized hemp and all its derivatives. But HHC technically isn’t THC at all, so it should skirt federal scrutiny—right? Maybe.
Commercial HHC is not found naturally in the cannabis plant. The product is made by hydrogenating hemp-derived cannabinoids under pressure with a palladium catalyst. National Cannabis Industry Association scientists describe the result as a “semi-synthetic” cannabis compound.
HHC might be a new kind of potent marijuana. One company thinks that it falls under the Federal Analogue Act, which automatically classifies analogs of Schedule 1 drugs, like heroin and marijuana, as Schedule 1 drugs themselves.
This is how it has been so far, until now. States can also ban HHC. This is likely to happen if HHC becomes popular, especially if it threatens the legal cannabis market, as delta 8 THC did. The HHC is probably too niche to get the attention of state lawmakers at this point.
