its not funny. what would you gain from snorting whatever this is? "what would you gain from this is? Is what you should ask when doing this sort of thing".

Are you gonna gain a significant insight, are you gonna gain a major sense of relief from something you've done wrong? Do you're psychological work without drugs!

no im just doing it for shits and giggles and for fun and also if it works itl be a more intense high compared to edibles
 
I think probably no, because THC is not water soluble, but fat soluble. Just like freebase (crack) cocaine is not snortable because its not water soluble, buuuut cocaine HCl (salt form) is, because the HCl makes it water soluble.

I have heard of water soluble CBD products? And there's THC drinks too so that must be some sort of salt form? Maybe from THCa? Any chemists?
 
THCa -- no

water soluble THC -- Perhaps. I jokingly asked about shooting it and noone had done it. I presume with good reason.

Had a friend in HS that snorted a bunch of kief and we laughed at him a bit --- I use to eat raw buds ( I had so much pot it I was okay using it as gum with little effect lol -- and was in that stage of life)

People have tried shooting thc through various methods (Soluble in alcohol) --- it usually ends with a hospital and serious complications.

You'd be surprised. On the future4200 forums someone working with a large amount of THCA isolate powder reported effects via dust inhalation. I can't remember how strong it was but something happened.

^ News to me. Any negative side effects other than product waste?

Not that I recal but probably irritation since THC activates some TRP* channels. Capsaicin and piperine burn via activating TRPV1 iirc (menthol cools via TRPM8).

Have you heard of oral ROA for terpenes? This is a good example. There's hundreds of terpenes to choose from. Btw make sure you dilute them beforehand and only use genuine steam-distilled oils.

this is something i've always wondered: so insufflation works by absorption via the mucous membranes in your nose, right?

but there's also inhalers where you inhale an aerosol, so liquid with an active compound is directly absorbed through your lungs, like a vapour would.
soooo like snorting a powder so hard you inhale it would also work for most compounds? or not?

also applies to some stuff that would not be smoke/vaporizable because of heat? you could aerosol it and inhale that?

seems like a weird inbetween ROA that could work well for some compounds

...thinking out loud here, not sure what the question is :')
 
The phosphate ester of THC is water soluble. I posted a video in which a subject was first injected with a mixture of THC and CBD and next day just THC. The former left her giggling, the latter she was scared half to death. So while many things CAN be done, that doesn't automatically make them a good plan.

But it's your body, your choice. I'm just one person offering one opinion.

Besides the various THC esters (acetate, phosphate, hemisuccinate etc) i've wondered if the "bioactive" acids like salicylic, pyroglutamic and nicotinic would afford anything unique. It's a different drug but reminiscent of the dinicotinate/disalicylate esters of morphine.

Sodium pyroglutamate (DIY) has some valuable theraputic properties. Pyroglutamic acid shares the same 2-oxo-pyrrolidone base structure as the classic nootropic Piracetam.

The thing about Δ9 THC is that there isn't really anywhere else on the molecule one could potentially modify to increase it's water solubility. As I'm sure you are aware, it seems that whatever ester you go with, it requires hydrolysis so the pharmokinetics will alter. Just how much it's altered, I don't know.

I would expect it to form esters with a range of natural carboxylic acids, but I think the same thing would happen. But that's purely speculation on my part.

But I cannot think any of the examples you provided posing special hazards.

Hey - isn't low-dose aspirin now widely prescribed to prevent myocardial infraction (heart attacks)? There could be a truly massive market for people entering their sixth generation and beyond who might like the idea of an all-natrual option that just happens to get them stoned as a 'side effect'.

Stranger things have happened...

A THC only stone? It might benefit from a Sativex style approach:
• THC-O-salicylate
• CBD-di-O-salicylate

Those esters could be an alternative to the carboxylated forms:
NSAID drugs containing a carboxyl group in their chemical structures such as salicylic acid are known to inhibit nonselectively both COX-1 and COX-2.
...
CBDA and THCA have a salicylic acid moiety in their structures.

You can pretty much take any naturally occuring carboxylic acid-containing compound and esterfiy the phenolic -OH but I can't check every case. Obviously there will be exceptions and there are workarounds such as forming an acyl halide first or even a protection-deprotection sequence, but if I'm honest, if you are having to do all that, you end up using some unpleasent chemicals and I know you are more focussed on all natural compounds.

It becomes one of those 'just because we can doesn't mean whe should' type of things.

The salicylate just appealed to my sense of humour and who knows? I can honestly say things I though were surefire died on their arses while stuff I had no particular high hopes for were pretty widely praised. Sometimes it's impossilbe to tell. If nothing else, I would guess that it may be easier on the stomach and I believe reports suggest that for some people both things help with the pain caused by arthritis.

As to them containing the salicylic acid moiety, I could equally point out that all of those contain benzene in their structure. I don't know much about them. If they help with pain, cool. Go with whatever works.
 
I am actually researching this in depth concerning THC salts….? I do know of CBD salt I am considering putting THCA-Delta 9 into capsules??? If anyone has any info please let me know.

bro don’t snort that shit lol that’s not what it’s made for, you’ll just irritate your nose for no real payoff, it’s not coke, stick to methods that actually work.
 
I feel it would be the same as the idiots that sniff benzos. Sniffing wont do do shit, but the drip will get you stoned just curious, youre eating it lol
 
Thc-o acétate would then be snortable if the Esther is water soluble. Order thc-o acetate powder snort it and report back. Be aware that it lasts much longer than delta 9 and is much stronger than delta 9. God luck and good speed
