Delta 8 THC Megathread

S-Dog said:
I just found out about Delta-8 and 10 THC. What exactly are they and why are they legal where normal weed isn't?

EDIT:

Just for anyone else who finds this thread, wondering about Delta-8 and Delta-10 THC. This is what I've found. Take it with a grain of salt.

What I've found all seems to roughly agree with each other. Neither has the same psychedelic effects of Delta-9 (traditional marijuana). Delta 8 is a more a calming body high somewhat resembling Indica strains of marijuana so it's good for nigh time use and sleep. Delta 10 is more like Sativa so it's more uplifting, energetic and creative, good for daytime and focus. 10 is not more potent than 8 and neither are as potent as 9. And even in high doses, neither 8 or 10 give the same, psychedelic, out of your body, drug trip type of experience that you get from traditional marijuana. Delta-10 also seems to be harder (if not impossible) to find on it's own but is available mixed with Delta-8

my bf just bought a delta 8 gorilla glue flyin monkey wax kit, just wondering if i could get some advice on how to use it
 
Quick example of irl comparrison on my experience.

Not long ago I acquired a ton of delta 8 products. Tried it and couldnt figure out what all the hype was about. Eating, smoking or tincturs left me thinkin maybe I got something not sure. All the while puffin large on primo flowers.
Fast forward to yesterday - day after I had to drop flower - I found a jar of dissate that had been shelved and gave it a try. Whamo! WTF? This shit is strong! Hahaha Kinda a little too sativa for my likes but hey, got enough to ""rough" it til....
So cross tollerence? For me maybe one-way? Not sure what to make of it.

plz forgive the atrocious spelling and such
 
Very strong IMO - even if you don't get as high, you build quite a strong tolerance to a similar dosage somehow even if ki values are slightly different :/
 
Eating delta 8 turns into the same compound as eating delta 9. So cross tolerance would be significant.

even smoking/vaping binds to the same receptors just to a lower affinity I believe (fact check?). So would have cross tolerance that roa as well
 
Maybe it is only the one compound in delta 8 (THC) which is cross tolerant. The missing spectrum of compounds that are found in flower cannot be belittled by delta 8, 9 or any other one-trick pony.

I think I may have missed the point as usual. My bad.

If it is identical compound extracted they would bind to the same receptors, yes.

Edit: I think I am talkin out my ass here

I am a man manufacturer of d8 d10 thcp cbdp and thco products. A warning about d10. So far, the main lab that can test for d10 has not had one real sample submitted. The COAs for d10 are also misleading because they are for potency. The test you need to run is much more thorough and what we have learned is that all d10 samples are testing really high for sulfur, this is not something you want to inhale.

Our lab has been able to product 90% delta 10 which is unheard of, it should be available in a couple weeks. Our D8 is some of the best in the industry, but we just cant get behind the d10 thats out there

I guess I'll stick with my delta 8 then, I was thinking of buying some D10, guess not, thank you

Sorry man, this is the first time I saw your post, but I can help if your still there, you can either make edibles out of it, or vape it.

Please specify which your wanting to do, and if you have a rig and stuff
 
I've had quite a lot of experience with delta 8 recently and i've noticed something rather frustrating. The first hit of the day can be really intense and of course, the more you do in that first hit, the more intense it is.

BUT...

For me at least, it's basically pointless to do any more after that because it'll do almost nothing and the more you fight it, the less and less each additional hit does until I find myself basically sober regardless of how much I do until the next day.

So I basically get one good hit a day and that's it. Has anyone else noticed this or is it just me?
 
I find on that merit it still operates with the same efficacy of delta 9.
I start the day with small vaped/oral doses, hold off on smoking and large doses until the end of the day.
Thatll keep me very high all day.
I take hallucinogens on weekends to help reset my tolerance. Good luck smoking yourself asleep when the walls are already crawling haha
God bless

yeah, that doesn't work for me with D8. If i do a small dose in the morning it'll give me maybe half an hour of buzz then goes away and then the big dose at night will be less effective
 
I feel like d8 and d9 share similar tolerance gain/levels

the problem is because d8 is significantly less potent than d9, this causes tolerance to be much more noticeable and more difficult to defeat

and yeah, I haven't been able to get "high" from d8 in a really long time due to tolerance. I still enjoy it, though.
 
I respectfully disagree with you snafu.
Id argue that they are equal potency as well.
Comparing D9 distilllate to D8 distilllilate assuming both were 98% purity .
I think what people are neglecting is the well-documented entourage effect of cannabinoids from natural cannabis.
Imagine alllll those great wonderful natural terpenes and all the CBD/G/A/etc working together everytime you light a little nug.
It should be without saying, natural cannabis contains higher chroma of PA compounds than delta8.
However, delta8 to delta9, both isolated, Id have to call them equal, probably damned close even on all the lab tests too. Id love to see reports showing that its significantly weaker than isolated delta9
 
BTW I take li' d8 dabs all day every day.
As long as I dont push it or smoke herb in the morning or go crazy with edibles; my tolerance stays low 🤷‍♂️

took me a long ass time to figure out a dab really really really is just literally a teeny tiny "dab" of substance. I wanted to do "globs" at first, couldnt figure out why my tolerance kept going up LOL

I react very differently to d8 and d9.

The d8 I get is 95% pure, uncut. It's lovely but definitely at least half as potent as d9 in terms of raw non-subjective psychoactive effects.

I prefer d8 over d9. d9 can be too strong for me now and produces way too much anxiety.

I think I disagree here. I tried a delta 9 cart right before i tried any D8. I've only ever smoked flower and that D9 cart was my first experience with concentrates. The D9 cart was WAY more potent and I never hit a ceiling with it. Even after a few weeks off, I can't get any where NEAR the same effect with D8, Not only in terms of potency but also in terms of tolerance. My tolerance always rapidly outpaces my use with D8. Never had that problem with 9 in any form

I only mix my own carts so I could easily note any dosage or mixing discrepancies.
Do you recall the content % in those carts? Terpene or PG content? Cart model or size?
 
Yup when I made it myself back in the day, everyone complained about this. What I did was I had some somewhat immature bud, so I laced it with this delta 8 rich oil and sold it off.

First bag everyone loved it, they came running back but then everyone complained it was like they got hit with an instance tolerance from it.

I noticed the same thing…
