What Is Live Resin HTE (high terpene extract)?
The reason why it’s called live resin is because the hemp plant is immediately frozen after being harvested. Also, the plant is kept frozen during the extraction process and is not dried or cured. This is to ensure that the finished product keeps all of its properties including terpenes and other compounds. Because the process uses frozen plants instead of fresh ones you’re able to get a lot more potency and flavors. Although you’re able to find similar flavors or potency in other products – live resin is a way for a product to keep its integrity.
Specifically for HTE (high terpene extract), the extraction process prioritizes a higher percentage of terpenes, potentially ranging between 8-20%, whereas the regular Live Resin terpenes may be in the 3-5% range. The process means that it potentially creates a more highly potent product with longer-lasting effects. Also, it’s a lot more flavorful than other concentrates and produces a cleaner high. When stacked up against other concentrates like shatter, live resin tends to be a lot more potent. This is because live resin tends to keep most of its potency during the extraction process. When live resin is presented in the form of distillate it tends to keep its integrity a lot better when compared to other distillates.
What is THCA?
THCA is the precursor to Delta 9 THC. Signified by the “A” in THCA. THCA becomes Delta 9 THC through heating, which also gives it a psychoactive effect. Without heating, THCA does not have any effects. Therefore, when heated THCA becomes regular Delta 9 THC and has the strength and effects of the THC we all know and love.
What is THC-P?
THC-P first begins as a substance initially formed as cannabigerolic acid (CBGA), known as the “mother cannabinoid” from which cannabinoids derive from. By the same token, TCHPA (Tetrahydrocannabiphorol Acid) becomes THC-P and on its own it’s 33 times stronger than regular THC, which means its effects on the body are amplified.
What is Delta 8 THC?
Delta 8 THC is a naturally occurring cannabinoid in both cannabis and Industrial Hemp plants. It exists naturally and can also be produced by converting CBD or Δ9 THC via a chemical reaction using heat or other methods. The effects of Delta 8 vary person-to-person, but the typical anecdotal information from consumers is that it’s relaxing, mood-boosting, mildly euphoric, yet clear headed. It has a tendency to be motivating and energizing at lower doses, but can be sleep-inducing at higher doses.
Benefit of Vaping Cannabinoids
Vaping gives your body access to effects of the cannabinoids and terpenes in the shortest time frame, and with a high percentage of bioavailability (i.e., the amount that actually enters your bloodstream). As a vape product, the cannabinoids and other compounds are aerosolized as you inhale, which means that the absorption rate is significantly faster than if you ingest orally (e.g., edibles, sublingual oils, etc.). Not only do vape oils hit your sublingual glands as the vapor passes through your mouth, it also gets directly into your bloodstream as vapor reaches the small blood vessels in your lungs. When it comes to immediately feeling the full effects of the hemp plant’s oil extract, there is no better delivery system. When consuming edibles, as a comparison, the delivery to your bloodstream takes a longer path through the digestive system, which may delay the effect 1-2 hours. Also during the digestion process, you’ll lose a significant amount as waste, allowing for only 10-15% of the product to actually enter your bloodstream.
