What Is Delta 9 THC? A Beginner's Guide to Hemp-Derived Gummies

If you're new to hemp-derived THC, Delta 9 is the place most people start. Here's a plain-language look at what it is, where it comes from and what to know before your first gummy.

What Delta 9 THC is

Delta 9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the best-known cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant. It's the compound most people mean when they talk about THC. Hemp is a variety of cannabis that naturally contains only small amounts of Delta 9 by dry weight, which is why hemp-derived products are made by extracting it and measuring it into an exact serving.

Hemp-derived vs. marijuana-derived

The Delta 9 molecule is the same either way. The difference is the plant source and the rules it's sold under. Hemp-derived Delta 9 products come from hemp and are sold under federal and state hemp rules, which vary by state and are changing. That's why we only ship to states where we can deliver, and why every order requires you to be 21 or older.

Before you try it

Delta 9 is intoxicating. Start with half a gummy, wait at least 90 minutes before taking more, and don't drive or operate machinery after use. It may cause a positive drug test. Don't use it if you're pregnant or nursing, and talk to your doctor if you take medication.
