Delta-9 THC Product Guide: THC Gummies, Oils, Vapes & More

Legal delta-9 THC products are exploding in popularity across the US—and for good reason. Not only does delta-9 deliver well-known effects for mood enhancement and relaxation, but also THC has a wealth of wellness benefits that are just now becoming more understood and accepted (and appreciated!) by the general public.**

Another reason for THC’s increase in popularity is the wide variety of delta-9 products available nowadays. Not every THC product is created equal, however, so you still need to approach shopping for delta-9 just as you would any CBD product: look for THC products made with organic cannabis hemp, with the oil safely extracted using clean CO2, and backed by a third-party lab report so you know just how pure and potent your THC product is.

We’ll take a look at some THC-infused products that check all of these boxes in just a bit. But first, let’s delve into just what delta-9 THC is and get a better understanding of the benefits of this fascinating cannabis compound.

What Is Delta-9 THC?

Delta-9 THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is one of a family of cannabis compounds called cannabinoids. Cannabis produces over a hundred such compounds, including THC, CBD, CBN, CBG, and CBC, among others. Most people associate this form of THC with its intoxicating properties, which are particularly prominent in the high-THC type of cannabis, commonly referred to as marijuana. But marijuana isn’t the only form of cannabis, and it’s the other cannabis that concerns us today.

A Quick Lesson in Cannabis & CBD

Cannabis comes in two forms, in the eyes of the law. There’s high-THC cannabis, which is generally referred to as marijuana. This is, indeed, the form of cannabis that people have historically used to get high, although its medical uses have been celebrated in recent years, as well.

There also exists a low-THC form of cannabis called hemp. Hemp has been used for thousands of years for everything from cloth and rope to health and wellness applications. Thanks to the 2018 US Farm Bill, the growth, manufacture, and sale of cannabis hemp products is now legal at the national level. Hemp products must adhere to the legal THC limit, though, of less than 0.3% THC. All of the THC gummies, oils, and other products mentioned in this article are made from cannabis hemp and adhere to this legal THC threshold.

The Health Benefits of Delta-9 THC

Like CBD and other cannabinoids, THC interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system. This system helps to maintain homeostasis, or balance, in a number of systems and organs throughout the body, including the nervous system and the brain. This, in turn, helps the body to regulate such vital functions as mood, sleep, appetite, memory, immune function, stress and pain processing, motor control, and more.

When cannabis-based cannabinoids are consumed, they mimic the body’s own endocannabinoids and communicate with the same receptors in the ECS, helping to reinforce and even bolster the system. This helps the body to maintain homeostasis and assists in regulating the functions mentioned above.**

When you take too much THC, as with smoking weed, this cannabis compound can knock things out of balance temporarily. Motor control, sleep, appetite, mood, and other functions can be affected. But taken in proper doses, THC can help with a variety of these very same functions and can be a very effective health and wellness supplement. In fact, people commonly use cannabis for THC benefits that include stress and pain relief, muscle relaxation, and sleep.** 

Types of THC Products

Tetrahydrocannabinol products come in a variety of forms, each with its own benefits. These products can generally be separated into three categories: THC edibles, sublingual THC oil, and THC vape products. We separate delta 9 products into these categories because each method of ingestion requires the body to absorb the THC in a different manner, which impacts the effects of the product and your overall THC experience.

CBDfx’s Full Spectrum CBD + THC Collection

Our delta 9 THC line of products begins with full spectrum CBD, which is the oil initially extracted from the hemp plant, containing all of the plant’s cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids, and healthy fatty acids. Those cannabinoids include trace amounts of THC. Often, however, this extract contains significantly less than the legal limit of less than 0.3% THC. And so, with our CBD + THC collection, we’ve added back into the mix additional THC to take it right up to the maximum legal limit. This means more delta 9 THC benefits for you! 

One last note before we get to the goodies: While these tetrahydrocannabinol products are all derived from cannabis hemp and within the legal THC limits established under the 2018 Farm Bill, it is important to remember that delta 9 THC can produce psychoactive effects. Please refrain from driving or operating heavy machinery when using these products.

Gummies & Other Edibles

THC edibles take the longest period of time for the THC to be absorbed into your bloodstream, because the THC has to travel through your digestive tract and liver first. The benefit, though, is that the effects of a delta 9 THC edible can last much longer than other methods of consumption — as high as six to eight hours, depending on bioavailability factors, such as height, weight, and THC tolerance.

Our delta 9 THC gummies come in three taste-tempting formulas. Berry Buzz THC Gummies give you all the uplifting good vibes of a sativa strain with your choice of 5 or 10mg THC in every single-gummy serving. Magic Melon THC Gummies, provide the same mood enhancing feels, but in a delicious melon flavor and with max-effects 10mg of THC. And Lemon Dream THC Gummies deliver all the restful effects of a good strain, along with 3mg of melatonin for good measure: the perfect delta 9 THC treat for a blissful bedtime.**

We also carry THC pills, which are a great mess-free option for on-the-go, active lifestyles. With 2.5mg THC per serving, our Daily Chill THC Capsules are ideal for microdosing THC. Microdosing allows you to enjoy the calming effects of THC and all those aforementioned delta 9 benefits, while still keeping your mental acuity sharp throughout the day.**

Sublingual Oil Tinctures

Sublingual tinctures are held under the tongue, so the THC is absorbed into the bloodstream through the capillaries of the mouth. This happens much quicker than the absorption you experience with THC edibles. While delta 9 THC gummies can take 30 minutes to two hours for the THC to kick in, sublingual THC oil products can take as little as 15 to 30 minutes, depending on bioavailability. And while the effects of THC oil tinctures don’t last quite as long as THC edibles, they still last for a respectable four to six hours.

We have two potent delta 9 THC oil tinctures: Ultimate Chill THC Drops and Sweet Dreams THC Drops. Our Ultimate Chill THC Drops deliver 2.25mg THC per serving and come in a delightful blueberry flavor (making it a great addition for smoothies or cocktails!). Our Sweet Dreams THC Drops take that 2.25mg THC and add to it a whopping 10mg per serving of CBN, the “ultimate relaxation cannabinoid,” making this THC tincture the ultimate in legal cannabis sleep aids.**

Vape Products

THC vape products deliver the quickest-hitting THC effects, which can hit in just a few minutes or even seconds (depending on bioavailability). The effects only last one to two hours, but THC vapes are so convenient and discrete, it’s easy enough to simply take another puff to keep the feeling going.

Our disposable THC Vape Pens deliver 10mg THC and 1500mg CBD per pen. These rechargeable THC vapes contain enough juice to last approximately 2500 puffs, and they come in a wide variety of flavors: Maui Wowie THC Vape Pen, Pineapple Express , Watermelon Skit THC Vape Pen, and Purple Punch THC Vape Pen. 

Our THC Vape Juice products give you a whopping 75mg THC and 2000mg CBD in every e-liquid bottle. These tasty THC juices also come in classic strain formulas: Maui Wowie THC Vape Juice, Wedding Cake THC Vape Juice, Pineapple Express THC Vape Juice, OG Kush THC Vape Juice, and Purple Punch THC Vape Juice (with added CBN).
