Delta 8 THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) edibles are one of the fastest selling products in the Delta 8 range. You can buy Delta 8 flower, Delta 8 oil & tinctures, Delta 8 vapes & cartridges, Delta 8 hash, Delta 8 kief, Delta 8 pre-rolls, Delta 8 personal care items, and much more in the UK & Ireland online now with ease.
This popular cannabinoid has come a long way in the last couple of years. Virtually unheard of until around 2018, Delta 8 has truly catapulted to fame. Sales and demand of Delta 8 products show no sign of slowing down, it's popularity could possibly be because of the mild psychoactive effects it gives, in addition to some impressive health benefits.
Not only has Delta 8 shown it's beneficial health properties, but it can address both physical and mental issues. Instead of slowing down brain function, as with Delta 9 THC, Delta 8 actually improves cognitive function. Giving the brain clarity, alertness, and focus, Delta 8 is appealing to the masses.
Delta 9 THC, is a powerful mind-altering compound. It is also known on the streets as 'grass', 'dope', 'green', 'smoke', 'reef', 'Mary Jane', and other familiar names. However, because of the potent psychoactive effects it gives, it is widely illegal across the globe.
It is an offence in most countries to cultivate, possess, supply, or use Delta 9. There are penalties for breaking the laws around Delta 9, the severity of which will differ depending on where in the world the laws were broken.
Since the arrival of Delta 8 THC into the cannabis market, many of those who are avid users, cultivators, etc. of Delta 9, have began to convert to Delta 8. This is mainly due to the mildly psychoactive effect Delta 8 delivers in addition to the healing properties it can give.
Nevertheless, there seems to be somewhat of a grey area where legality is concerned, with regard to Delta 8 THC. The concerns and controversy surround the psychoactive element of this compound. However, in 2018 the American Farm Bill deemed that all derivatives of the hemp plant are to be lawful. This seems like good news for Delta 8, because technically Delta 8 is a product of hemp.
CBD (cannabidiol) is produced from the hemp plant. Delta 8 is actually CBD, but converted with particular chemicals to give it the mild psychoactive effect, now a known characteristic of this compound. Therefore, although it is debateable, Delta 8 does come from the hemp plant, albeit via CBD.
CBD is not only available online, but it has also been available on our high streets for several years. It is a healthy supplement used by millions now, helping to give relief from pain, and solutions for many physical and mental health issues.
Delta 8 has a massive presence online, but is yet to make an appearance on our high streets. There are numerous Delta 8 products available, such as Delta 8 flower, Delta 8 oils & tinctures, Delta 8 hash, Delta 8 edibles, Delta 8 vapes & cartridges, and more, to buy in the UK & Ireland, and also globally.
It has to be said, one of the most popular Delta 8 products are gummies. The fruity, chewy sweets that come in all shapes and sizes. However, they are not your usual treat, each gummy is dosed with Delta 8 THC.
Dosage of gummies can range from around 10-40mg per gummy. Novices to the gummy world should begin with a small dose first, and then increase from there if needed. Of course factors such as height, weight, gender, other medication, etc. should be taken into account, as every person is different, and effects can differ.
It can take between 30 minutes to 1 hour for the effects of a gummy to be felt. Tempting though it may be, one at a time is the best way forward. This will also show the true strength, and can be adjusted accordingly.
