THCA is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid naturally found in the cannabis plant. THCA is the “precursor” to  traditional THC and converts into THC when heat is applied in a process called “decarboxylation”. The decarb process occurs at an estimated 64 degrees fahrenheit and would convert THCA into THC. Because of this unstable acidic form, it’s recommended and practiced that THCA products are stored in a temperature controlled environment to maintain its structure. Effects of THCA when consumed can be comparable to those of THC, with notable shorter lasting and less psychoactive effects overall.

The legality of THCA in a non-regulated state has led to some discussions that local lawyer, Rod Kight, describes in his blog. In short, the DEA has verified that there is a distinct difference in THCA and Delta-9 THC. Since THCA in its raw form contains no Delta-9 THC, it would be lawfully protected by the 2018 Farm Bill which federally legalizes Hemp products. Plants producing high THCA content must also comply with federal policy that provides hemp products must not exceed 0.03% Delta-9 THC.
