seeing these advertised for sale locally. ads say "THCa converts to Delta-9 THC when heated(lit), not before, so sale/possession is legal." had an ad/insert in local paper just yesterday, one oz of these buds for $100. can anyone on here say with any certainty whether this is for real, or just another BS claim making the rounds? has anyone else seen this where they are? i WILL research it on my own later today, just wanted to toss this up against the wall while i was here.

“hey officer sir i have no idea where that marijuana came from but i suspect if you test it you may just be surprised that it has no thc at all.. until you heat it”

as advertised your honor. defendant, was selling THCa Hemp.
Completely cuts out the nzi gv info situation of delivery service.
Also if the purchaser of THCa hemp was misusing the product then that is not the fault of the seller of THCa hemp.

It’s fucc’d but it’s kinda entertaining that people are lit there doing it, probably what I would have done when I was like 15. There must be a THCa lawyer in armed’s area,, all seriousness

When I was in Colorado about 11 years ago, I looked for Volvo parts on Craigslist. There were people selling nuggs on Craigslist that tagged like 4 thousand different words so everyone on Craigslist would see their ad.

I see it here in Florida but have not tried it…being a grower I see no need in trying it when I have it in my jars…I’m told it’s about 30% less potent that our flowers…

I bought some of the stuff from a legal shop whole I was in Italy. I smoked 2 grams in one joint and got a good cough. Thats was all, sort of mixed well with the few loose nuggs I scattered around in my luggage. So can people iTHCa sales? :unsure:

Edit: Not I9 that’s the gv discrimination form,
but does this mean people can lease a truck or buy a house with THCa money that claimed on taxes. Say you sold 300k in THCa hemp and a person want to give the government their share, easy way to wash a few bucks.

I checked random store from US, they have THCa levels over 20% these days. Wonder how does the EU law looks like in this matter.
 
100% real. That specific ad in your local paper might not be legit but tons of "THCa flower" is being sold online and shipped through the mail with no problems. It's just regular weed with THC content below .3%, thus qualifying -- in theory -- as "hemp" under the 2018 Farm Bill. I've tried plenty of it and it's no different than what you'd find at a dispensary under the same strain name except the THCa hasn't decarboxylated into THC. Not sure if there have been any legal challenges to this yet or attempts to ban it at the state level or how much longer this "loophole" will last.

I'm bumping this old thread. This trend has only increased. It's kinda weird there's vape shops selling thca buds as hemp but it all looks like regular nugs. I've also seen thca moon rocks that look like they're covered in white powder isolate.

i'm just wondering if this is a result of testing and COAs or are there plants that only grow thca. Or is it just regular genetics harvested early before conversion?

the TBI today asked the state legislature to consider "resolving" the confusion on THC-A. they told users to keep the original packaging to help prevent problems during interactions with LEO. they also said they had transferred testing for delta-9 or thc-a to another dept, since the only test they (the TBI) had availble relied on heating the sample...which, we all know, converts thc-a to delta-9. :eek: there have already been some cases dropped, which is always good news! :cool:

Seeing facebook filled with THCa ads. Another loophole which must work if I see 50 different ads a day. All cannabis is THCa till heated. They claim it is due to farm bill.

They had it for sale at the local CBD hemp oil shop. It smelled really good. They have Lemon Cherry Gelatto THCa hemp!

I thought THCa is THC-acid which is what is present in large amounts on freshly harvested medical cannabis, but as it dries it converts to Delta-9 THC.?

I was wondering if they just had some medical cannabis that was tested on harvest day wet and was found to have THCa which is a precurser to Delta 9 THC which may increase as the plant dries after harvest.
