THCa (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) is a naturally occurring cannabinoid that is abundant in raw cannabis buds, and does not have psychoactive qualities when consumed in its unprocessed form. THCa is converted into a psychoactive THC chemical when heated, smoked, or vaped.
THCA stands for tetrahydrocannabinolic acid and is the acidic form of THC before it’s heated. It does not cause intoxication like THC. On the other hand, THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is psychoactive and responsible for the “high.” When THCA is heated or exposed to heat, it converts into THC.
THCa is superior to the traditional and illegal Delta 9 THC because it carries basically every benefit and effect of Delta 9 THC but is fully federally legal in most states.
Since products contain THCa and less then .03 THC, companies are able to fully legally manufacture, distribute and sell to consumers in the United States. Thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill, ratified and signed into law in December 2018, Cannabis containing less than 0.3% Delta 9 THC is legally classified as Seperately and thus is legal for all intents and purposes under federal law. Let’s also not forget, THC itself isn’t federally illegal, only specifically Delta 9 THC is.
The difference in CBD (Cannabidiol) and THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) is that CBD doesn’t carry the psychoactive effects that THC does. CBD can be used for numerous health reasons but it will never give the consumer the psychoactive effects that Delta 9 or THCa would provide. THC carries most, if not all benefits of CBD, but also introduces the “high” euphoric feeling which can be hugely beneficial for many users.
“Hemp Derived THC” means that the THC is entirely produced from Hemp. Under the 2018 Farm Bill, which clarifies that “Hemp” is any cannabis plant containing less than 0.3% Delta 9 THC, Hemp is federally legal for all purposes under federal law. Marijuana or any cannabis plant containing more than 0.3% Delta 9 THC is not used in any “Hemp Derived THC” product.

While there are no federal regulations setting the minimum age required to purchase THCa, there are several state regulations mandating that consumers must be 21 years or older to purchase. For this reason, you must be 21 years or older to purchase any products both online and in store.
Absolutely, THCa can be sent through the United States Postal Service (USPS) legally. Thanks to a clarification published in the USPS regulations, Hemp products can safely and legally be shipped within the United States.
