If you’re just getting your hands on hemp-derived Delta-11 for the first time, you may be wondering how it can amp up your usual smoke session. Can you mix Delta-11 with weed?
After all, Delta-11 is incredibly potent and has the potential to add a euphoric buzz to any THCsession. It’s high-potency makes it a perfect choice for pairing with other (milder) hemp products, like Delta-8 or Delta-10. But if you want a full force THC high, you can absolutely pair it with traditional Delta-9 flower. Here’s what that might look like:
Table of ContentsPairing different cannabinoids is nothing new, and companies have been using the method for years to fine tune products to meet certain therapeutic needs. The combined benefits of two or more specific cannabinoids can be referred to as the “ensemble effect.” For instance, our Dream Tincture combines CBDand CBN to provide boosted benefits for sleep.
Some experts suggest that specific cannabinoid combinations may be even more useful than a general full spectrum formula that contains many different cannabinoids. But what about combining THC-O and Delta-8? Are there any specific benefits to this cannabinoid combination? Let's look at the unique effects of each to understand why combining these two may be beneficial:
Delta-9 is often considered the “standard” THC compound. When compared to the full spectrum of THC compounds, Delta-9 is moderately potent and brings a balanced high that impacts the body and mind on a somewhat equal scale.
Delta-11 is a high-potency cannabinoid that brings forth a super intoxicating, body-centric euphoria. It is thought to be at least three times more potent than Delta-9, similarly to THC-O.
Many people may think of adding Delta-11 to weed as an “upgrade” the Delta-9 experience. Others may enjoy that the two also have a different range of effects. Although more research is necessary, some people believe that Delta-11’s body-high effects may make it an effective solution for managing pain. Like THC-O, some people even describe the effects of Delta-11 as “borderline hallucinogenic,” although this is likely dose dependent.
In reality, the effects you’ll get from a combination of Delta-11 and weed depend on a number of factors. It goes without saying that a combination that contains more Delta-11 will be much more potent, while a formula that contains predominantly Delta-9 will be slightly milder.
But the differences go much deeper than that–it also depends on the unique terpene profile of the product you choose. Some products, like vaporizers, use a method called “strain profiling” to help mimic the effects of popular cannabis strains. For instance, our Delta-8 + THC-O Vape Cart formulas come in three varieties: hybrid, indica, and sativa. The hearty sativa strain may help give you the cognitive boost you seek during the day, while the soothing indica vape can help you unwind when the day is through. A hybrid may meet you somewhere in the middle–perfect for socializing or just hanging out. Either way, expect the psychoactivity to be much more balanced than when taking either cannabinoid alone.
There are no known contraindications between cannabinoids, so the risks are generally the same as when taking either cannabinoid alone. The risks of THC include:
One thing to consider is the risk associated with an increased dosage. If you usually take 10 mg of Delta-9 and decide to also add Delta-11 to the mix, you may want to lower your overall dosage of both. The effects may be stronger than what you usually experience. For some people, taking too much THC can result in side effects like temporary anxiety and paranoia.
