Collection: THCP

What is THCP?

THCP is an organic cannabinoid, also known as a phytocannabinoid, that is similar to delta-9 THC, the most common cannabinoid in most marijuana strains. Although first identified in a specific marijuana strain, THCP can also be produced in the laboratory by chemically manipulating CBD extracted from legal hemp plants. However, producing enough THCP to be commercially viable requires laboratory production because it is only found in very small amounts in the cannabis flower. THCP is therefore borderline synthetic, depending on what you personally consider synthetic or non-synthetic.
THCP is a cannabinoid that has received increased attention for its potential potency compared to THC. Although similar in structure to THC, THCP has a longer alkyl chain that may affect its interaction with cannabinoid receptors in the human body. Some early studies have suggested that THCP may be more potent than THC in activating these receptors, which could lead to stronger psychoactive effects. It is important to note that research on THCP is limited and more studies are needed to understand its effects on human health and well-being.

Does THCP show up in drug tests?

It is uncertain whether THCP can be detected in drug tests because it has not yet been sufficiently studied. However, there is no reason to believe that THCP does not produce breakdown products of THC in the body, which could be detected by standard drug tests used by employers and the police.
This also seems to depend on who is using THCP and how it is used, we do not recommend using THCP in any way if you are risking your job or other important things in your life if using THCP risks this.

The difference between THCP and THC?

THCP is a newly discovered cannabinoid that is believed to be around 30 times as potent as THC. As of yet, it is not naturally available in cannabis in high enough concentrations to go directly from plant to oil, but as a widely natural cannabinoid, it is only a matter of time before high-THCP strains are bred.
The only difference is that THC has a chain of five carbon atoms, while THCP has seven carbon atoms, which also makes THCP the only naturally occurring cannabinoid with more than 5 carbon atoms. THCP's longer carbon chain produces cannabinoid properties that are much higher than THC, making it more potent. It is generally known that to get a psychoactive experience from THC, at least 3 carbon atoms are required and the effects increase the more carbon atoms there are, however, there is a limit to this.

A pure cannabis plant contains all 120-150 cannabinoids in their natural forms. To produce the common cannabinoids, for example, they must go through a process called decarboxylation where they are exposed to heat. THCA, CBDA and CBCA are all converted to THC, CBD or CBC and this applies to all compounds in the cannabis plant. The same applies to THCP, THCPA is converted to THCP. It is most often produced commercially in a laboratory environment by extraction and isolation from hemp and cannabis using chromatography techniques. They usually use CBD isolate as the starting material to make THCP, all of LGD's products are extracted from CBD isolate so that Delta-8 and Delta-9 are not present in the finished oil.

Q&A about THCP

Q: What is THCP and how do you get it?

A : THCP is a newly discovered cannabinoid found in some marijuana strains and can be created in laboratories by modifying legally produced CBD from hemp.

Q: What differentiates THCP from other cannabinoids like THC and CBD?

A: THCP is similar in structure to delta-9 THC, the most common cannabinoid in marijuana. It can also be created synthetically from CBD.

Q: What effects can THCP provide?

A: Studies suggest that THCP may be more potent than THC in activating cannabinoid receptors, which can lead to stronger psychoactive effects. It may also relieve pain and provide calming effects.

Q: Can THCP cause psychedelic effects?

A: THCP is not hallucinogenic, but some describe its effects as mildly psychedelic with altered sensory experiences.

Q: Can THCP be detected in drug tests?

A: It is uncertain whether THCP can be detected in drug tests due to a lack of research. Metabolites of THCP or similar compounds may possibly be detected.

Q: Is THCP legal in Sweden?

A: Currently, THCP is not illegal in Sweden. It is not regulated as a controlled substance by the Swedish Public Health Agency.

Q: What distinguishes the structure of THCP from other cannabinoids?

A: THCP has a longer structure than THC, which may increase its potency and provide unique properties.

Q: What are the possible health benefits of THCP?

A: Preliminary studies suggest that THCP may have anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties, as well as help with appetite regulation and neurological disorders.

Q: Where can I buy THCP in Sweden?

A: THCP products are available online at some hemp-based product retailers as well as in some physical stores.

Q: How does THCP work in the USA?

A: In the United States, hemp and its compounds have been legalized under the 2018 Farm Bill, but some states have regulations for hemp-based cannabinoids like THCP.

Q: What should you consider when using THCP ?

A: THCP may have stronger effects than THC, but more research is needed to understand its safety and therapeutic potential. Users should exercise caution, especially considering drug testing and local regulations.
