In this article, we’re gonna break down some of the facts and figures of what’s in the various hemp products on the market and help point you in the right direction to get the one that’s going to deliver the blazin’ THC effects you desire. So, let’s begin with a quick primer on the dankest of delta compounds, delta 9 THC.

What Is Delta 9 THC?

Delta-9 THC is a psychoactive compound that can be naturally found in cannabis marijuana (weed) and legal cannabis hemp. In addition to its well-known party properties, delta 9 delivers health benefits, as well, including stress relief, sleep support, and taking the edge off of pain. THC can help stimulate appetite, as well (munchies, anyone?). When someone says “THC,” they’re usually talking about delta-9. When someone says “tetrahydrocannabinol” they’re also usually talking about delta-9 (they’re probably just using extra syllables to impress you). 

Delta-9 products can come in a variety of forms, from delta 9 gummies and delta 9 syrups to delta 9 vape pens and flower. The variety of ways to get that dank delta-9 into your system means that you’ve got a sometimes staggering amount of products to choose from. But don’t let that stop you! What it really means is that there’s a delta-9 product for every person, and for every situation. We’re going to walk through some product options in this post, but if there’s one thing to remember, it’s this: there’s never been a better time to find something to suit your own personal needs.

How Long Does Delta 9 Take to Work?

Let’s use gummies as an example: You’ll usually start feeling the effects of these edibles around 30 to 120 minutes after eating one, as it takes time for the various hemp compounds to make their way into your bloodstream. That means they’re perfect for the beginning of a night out, or on the front side of a chill weekend with friends. Going to a festival? In for a movie marathon? Got a long, slow roll of a dinner? Delta-9’s got your back in every situation you can think of and more. 

Everyone reacts to different products and different dosages a little differently, so find a dank delta darling that sounds fun and give it a try! After all, the road to finding the perfect treat to help you chill out starts with a single gummy or vape puff. Keep an eye on the clock, so you have the best possible understanding of what feels right, and have fun with having fun. 

How Long Does It Take for Delta 9 Effects to Wear Off?

It’s no fun getting on a ride when you don’t know how long it’s going to last, right? One of the great things about delta-9-THC is knowing how long it’ll take to start working, and knowing how long it’ll take to wear off. For most folks, a delta-9 edible will last between six and eight hours (depending on the strength of your product and personal bioavailability factors). But remember: if you take more than the recommended dosage, the effects can last longer and/or end up being more intense than intended, which can potentially harsh your mellow. Let it be a marathon and not a sprint, know what you’re getting into, and have a fantastic time in the groove of these products. 

Cannabis Cousins: THC vs CBD

You may have heard about THC and CBD, and how these hemp heroes have some things in common, but also have a lot of differences. Looking for a quick breakdown on what’s what when it comes to these cannabis cousins? We got you. 

CBD (or “cannabidiol,” if we’re being formal about it) is a molecular compound produced by the cannabis plant. While the cannabis plant makes over one hundred different types of these compounds (known as “cannabinoids”), CBD and THC are the best known—and for good reason! CBD’s main differentiation is that it’s not a psychoactive compound, which means that it doesn’t get you baked. CBD’s effects on the body are more health and wellness oriented. The human body’s got something called the endocannabinoid system, a cell-signaling system wired into the organs and systems of your body, helping them to maintain balance. CBD boosts the performance of this system, delivering several wellness benefits in the process. CBD has calming effects, as well, which make it great for easing stress and for use in natural sleep aids. 

If you’re looking for something to take the edge off and get you a little baked, THC is gonna be your boi. If you’re looking for something that’s not going to get you baked, but will help achieve a stronger balance and wellness in your body, CBD may be the answer.

What Is the Difference Between Delta 9 and Delta 8 THC?

Delta 8 is a minor cannabinoid that’s related delta-9 THC. Delta-8 is a psychoactive compound, and the simplest way to think of it is a gentler buzz than you’ll find with delta-9 THC. It’ll still get you baked, but not quite as much. But just because something’s a little less potent doesn’t mean it’s not a substance with some kick. 

There’s a lot of research and work still being done on delta-8 THC, but the biggest takeaway is that it’s still a regulated substance, even though it’s one that’s a bit more mellow in terms of mind-melting effects. Some people have talked about delta-8 as a great way to take it easy—it can be nice to put it in a lower gear for a little while. But whether you’ve tried lots of cannabinoids and you’re experimenting with a gentler dosage; or you’re swimming up the delta for the first time, getting delta-8 can be an easier way into the world of THC. 

It’s never a bad time for a little experimentation, so don’t hesitate to check out a product like our high-potency Blue Raspberry Delta 8 Gummies, and see what works best for you. You may just end up finding a new favorite party pal! 

Kickin’ Cannabinoid Effects: How Potent Are Delta 9 Gummies?

Delta 9 gummies are super-potent, last a long time, taste amazing, and deliver a space-worthy buzz. Pay close attention to the dosage in what you’re eating. As you might guess, 10mg of THC is going to have a stronger kick than 5mg of THC. It’ll take anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours for the effects to kick in, so be patient when you pop one of these bad bois. And remember, THC-infused gummies (and other edibles) stick in your system for a while, so you’ll be feeling super-lifted for upwards of six to eight hours off of a single dose! Not bad for such a little guy. 

If you’re ready to climb about the Starship THC, we have a variety of legal edibles to get you to the next galaxy: Blue Raspberry Delta 9 Gummies, Mango Delta 9 Gummies, and Strawberry Delta 9 Gummies. Each of these dank delights delivers 10mg of dank D9 THC per serving!
