Why no THCV extracts

I haven't either, which is interesting because its meant to be the cannabinoid that supresses your hunger, which could be useful to combine with some strains or even dieting but this could also be why? If you look at what is available it either holds recreational value or medicinal (higher in regard) it does seem to contribute or bring on a more euphoric or alert high reportedly though , id try it for sure

Just found out about THCv. I found a website that sells it in gummies. Really cool actually cause they sell delta 9 legally to most states including Iowa. 7mg per gummy, not much but is legal under the hemp farm bill.
 
THCV sadly hasn’t been done much yet. I’ve made it myself in the past using a CBDV heavy concentrate. It was still only like 1/3 CBDV 2/3 CBD tho or something like that. So the resulting product still contained a fair amount of THC. Maybe that’s why we don’t see it? Too much isolation to get to it? Maybe CBDV is hard to come by?

THCV is almost psychedelic to me. The first time I got Durban Poison I think it was extremely heavy in THCV compared to others I’ve gotten since. I actually can’t smoke it all the time cuz I’ll start to feel symptoms that mimic what happens if I just keep eating psychedelics. Pretty sure there’s some 5-ht2a activity there. It’s also stimulating early on but heavy sedation later. People always say DP is stimulating but for me it’ll put out like a light after 30min. Maybe up until then it’s stimulating but I don’t count 30min of stimulation and couple hours of sleep, “stimulating.”

I find pinene heavy strains stimulating. That’s what I look for in a wake me up weed.

i've bought thcv a few times, i think i have one laying around.

it's a subtle effect, when mixed with d8 or d9 thc.

not sure if the batches i got were d8 or d9 thcv, but it is one of them (or a mix of both)
 
I have only done d8 as far as alt canna onions go. A 400 mg edible had me feeling great but vaping never did anything for me really. I’ve tried THC-O vapes too and I got nothing yet I thought it was supposed to be more potent than d9. Maybe just a bad vendor idk.

What’s really wild is how THCA is sold legally as long as d9 is only .3 percent. I mean THCA is the same as thc when smoked.

If we are talking about oral consumption I think it's because you wouldn't get high, not because it's not legal. THCV has to heated up (smoke it or cook it) before it converts into THC. When I made Green Dragon drops I would grind and then the brown the weed in a hot pan before steeping it in alcohol. Fresh buds don't work, neither would extracts.
 
THCA is sold "legally" since it's not actually precisely THC. (you know what I mean) Yes, it's crazy that they are exploiting that loophole. I've bought THCA distillate online, so no percentage limit followed.

I think that the DEA is cracking down on stuff that is that loose in the legality definitions. They have put out a statement saying that THC-O is illegal, both ∆8 and ∆9, and less places seem to be selling THCA.

The straight ∆9 THC gummies seem to be everywhere. I think that is what you are thinking of as exploiting the percentage limit thing.
They are less than .3% THC but big enough to hold 10mg. I find them about as potent as 1/2 of a dispensary gummy and I can buy them in local shops in a non-legal state.
With legalization being attempted in many states, including my own, I wonder if the powers that be are kinda looking the other way on these... for now.
 
Most recent information have seen, if appears if thcv is mixed with THC, the stimulate effect is canceled out
 
One main problem i used to expect with these target temperatures was that it implies a thermo-static model of consumption method where secondary & tertiary heat degradation results from violating this simple principle: to « Follow the Shortest Path of Lesser Transformation », e.g. a rule aiming to preserve/enjoy the wide spectrum "entourage" effect of cannabis without too much denaturation. So, thermalization as in slow/steady dry ovenizers no longer felt appealing to me a decade ago, which was when i started to explore « Pulsed Heating » based on convection instead. That alternative is about suddenly flooding a bowl with a virtually infinite source of energy (within the range of applications, to avoid combustion)... What it means is that all noble molecules get a chance to be "released" then "transported" away from such intense heat while it quickly degrades behind, because each liberating burst carries energy with it and this heat-depleting airflow is what makes the method combustion-free.

In the past i've repeatedly referred to some arachnophobic game tagged as "heat-shave the hairy spider", which is about torching an insect to strip its exoskeleton hairs without killing it inside. The trick is to match time, contact surface, mass and energy together in a way where only tiny exposed structures as hairs get heated up until they glow first... It turns out the trichome glands behave as an ideal packaging in this regard, which makes them a precious gift of Nature, all for free. As an additional advantage, this selectively targets the most noble part of a nugget, which got actually filtered on a molecular basis at the site of genesis; the rest is vegetal substrate likely to be soaked with contaminants including sanitory additive "traces", all mixed up in absence of combinatorial C(n, r) restrictions (and hence long-term studies won't show up before many generations started to express as signs of "strange deseases" - all In The Name Of Children).

So, to accomplish that it's essential to gain control over the amount of energy and time to begin with, etc., while a majority of popular consumption tools blatantly promise monster clouds, e.g. reflecting cooking effects with everything blurred. Which is more convenient to indu$trials than consumers IMHO; m'well, those who ain't chasing after the strongest "buzz", confusing quantity vs quality after having a couch-lock anyway.

😵

Oh, by the way here are only 2 vaporization "target" temperatures:

THC:: 157 °C (315 °F)​
THCv: 220 °C (428 °F)​

And the entourage effect implies many more. So, any idea how to get it all at once via the thermo-static model exactly?

🤔
 
I've looked for extracts a few times online, they are available in the US from farm bill vendors. But they are extremely expensive, or at least were the last time I looked. There is high THCv flower available though
 
I have seen vapes claiming to contain thcv but always in combination with other cannabinoids.
 
Just wanted to chime in that I'm actively staring at my container of THC-V crystals right now, I bought it in 2021 and they're still widely available in the US as far as I can tell. I've consumed a ton of THC-V since I started interfacing with it ~2020, and on its own it's more of a DMT-tasting, offputting looking, gigasativa in vibe, but I've had some batches of it that had a slightly blueish tint to them if the light hit the crystals just right, and they were notably weaker and less intensely DMT-ish in taste than what I work with most of the time.

TLDR; THC-V Extracts have been widely available in the US for at least half a decade, maybe longer elsewhere.

I quit reading once I got to that yellow word I don't like my eyes to bleed trying to read something. Please refrain from doing that again.
 
Have not been able to find the flower?

Then again, who can say it suppresses appetite enough to purchase it?

I ve smoked CBD cannabis solo and it seems to suppress appetite
