Suver Haze: Delta 8 Flower

Delta 8 THC also known as D8, Delta 8, or Delta 8- Tetrahydrocannabinol is a minor cannabinol derived from hemp. It’s closely related to Delta 9 THC (D9), the more classic type of THC, but is not as potent or psychoactive.

Yes, D8 is legal in most states and fully federally legal, unlike D9 which is federally illegal and illegal in many states. The 2018 Farm Bill made hemp-based products containing less than 0.3% D9 THC legal at the federal level and many D8 products fit into that category. It’s important to check your state’s laws before purchasing D8 products, however, just to be sure that you won’t encounter any legal obstacles.

Users of D8 report mild effects including a calming head change, increased relaxation, reduced stress and anxiety, improved sleep, and sometimes pain relief. D8 will affect everyone somewhat differently, though, and each D8 product may produce slightly distinct results.

D8 is generally considered psychoactive but to a much lesser extent than Delta 9 THC. In other words, sometimes D8 is psychoactive but not always. If any, the psychoactive effects of D8 are mild.

The most important things to look out for when buying a D8 product are quality and safety. To do so, make sure any D8 product you consider buying is sold by a company that offers proof that their products have gone through rigorous third-party testing. You should also look for a certificate of analysis (COA) on the product before you make a purchase. The COA will tell you the D9 THC level and other vital information like whether the product passed the tests for heavy metals and other contaminants. Other factors to consider are the potency level, the type of product (edibles, flowers, etc), and the brand's reputation and reviews.
