Where to Buy THC-O
The truth is, you can find THC-O in dispensaries, but you won't necessarily find THC-O in every dispensary. In fact, you may be hard pressed to find THC-O in the dispensary in areas where the cannabis market is still underdeveloped. You also may not find it in areas where THC-O is not legal.
In other areas, however, THC-O may be more readily available in dispensaries due to the legal atmosphere surrounding hemp-derived THC products. For instance, in Colorado, THC-O made from hemp is illegal, and you can only legally buy THC-O made from traditional cannabis material, which means it must be sold in a state licensed dispensary.
Overall, it's hard to say how readily available THC-O is in any given area since Delta-9-THC products usually take up most of the space on dispensary shelves. The THC-O availability in your local dispensary will depend both on the legal atmosphere and the demand for THC-O products.
There are obvious pros to shopping at a local dispensary, like same-day pick up, getting to see the selection up close, and those enlightening conversation you have with your local budtender. While shopping at your local dispensary may seem like the obvious option for ensuring the quality of your THC-O products, you can easily find the same quality online with a little work. You'll also be able to avoid some of the cons of shopping at the dispensary, including:
Also keep in mind that THC-O products that are purchased in the dispensary may be made from high-THC cannabis material and are not necessarily hemp-derived. This means that they may not be legal in all states and there may be a heavy penalty for carrying them across state lines.
The good news is, you don't necessarily need to find a local dispensary in order to find dispensary-quality THC-O products. Many people prefer shopping directly from the dispensary since state licensed shops are held to higher quality standards then many of the online hemp distributors. It's totally understandable–the hemp market is still very under-regulated.
However, you can save yourself some trouble buy shopping for THC-O online without having to sacrifice or worry about the quality of your THC-O products. Here's how:
Make sure that the hemp brand that you choose has verifiable experience with hemp products. The process for making THC-O is a bit involved, so choosing a company that has a background in cannabinoid extraction and cannabinoid isomerization is ideal.
Check that the brand you choose uses organic hemp sourced in the US that's free of pesticides, molds, heavy metals, and other potential contaminants. In order to maintain its federal legal status, THC-O needs to be made from hemp material that contains less than 0.3% Delta-9-THC.
Check the label to verify that all of the additional ingredients besides hemp extract are also high quality, organic, safe ingredients that otherwise meet your needs. This is a good opportunity to check for any allergens or other ingredients that you may have trouble with.
Finally, make sure that the products that you choose come with third-party lab tests to verify purity and potency. These labs should verify the information given on the product’s label so that you can accurately measure and dose your chosen THC-O product. Taking the correct THC-O dosage is the best way to avoid any side effects.
