Delta 8

What Is Delta 8?

Delta 8 makes up one of the four most common types of cannabinoids and is a compound derived from hemp. Chemically, Delta 8 is almost identical to Delta 9, which is the primary psychoactive component in marijuana.

Delta 8 an attractive option for first-time users and people who strictly want to use a marijuana-like product for the many benefits it provides. 

In its naturally occurring state, Delta 8 occurs in small quantities. It’s a degraded version of THC, so the plant doesn’t directly synthesize its enzymes. Thankfully for those who enjoy using Delta 8, there’s a workaround for this; in storage, THC degrades into Delta 8. For this reason, Delta 8 experts embrace selective breeding techniques and molecular isolation to increase their production of Delta 8.

Where Is Delta 8 Available?

According to federal law, Delta 8 is legal due to the Farm Bill, passed in 2018. Its brother, Delta 9, is illegal because it comes from marijuana and produces the classic high effects that come to mind when a person thinks of cannabis. Since states can make their own rules, you should double-check it’s legal in your state before making your purchase.

Is Delta 8 THC Safe?

Delta 8 THC is a safe alternative to Delta 9 THC provided that you purchase your vapes, edibles, and concentrates from a well-known vendor. Companies with little experience or those looking to cut corners will often leave traces of Delta 9 THC in their Delta 8 product. That can result in an intense, unexpected high.

Will Delta 8 THC Get You High?

Many people call Delta 8 “marijuana light.” You’ll know when it enters your body because it can create a near-instant relaxation effect. Some people will feel the impact more than others.

What Forms Does Delta 8 Come In?

Like traditional marijuana, you can choose from a variety of ways to consume Delta 8. These include Delta 8 tinctures, Delta 8 edibles, Delta 8 vape cartridges, and Delta 8 gummies. Georgia Hemp Company offers our Delta 8 products in both pure Delta 8 varieties and Delta 8 mixed with CBD and CBG hemp flower. You have the option to choose from the Delta 8 concentration of your preference, which ranges from 5.6% to 10%. 

Will Delta 8 Show up on a Drug Test?

You can assume that Delta 8 will likely show up on a drug test. Since urine tests detect THC metabolites, and Delta 8 comes from the degradation of THC, drug screenings can usually pick it up. Therefore, we recommend refraining from Delta 8 use if you have a drug test coming up. As a general rule, cannabinoids stay in fat cells for around thirty days. If you undergo a hair or fingernail drug test, you should stop using Delta 8 three months before your screening.
