Novel cannabinoids are popping all across the market and a recent one to cause quite a stir in the market is HHC. HHC is one of the naturally occurring cannabinoids in the hemp plant, but it forms in very little concentration. Even in hemp concentrates, HHC can be found in very trace amounts and therefore, consumption was not feasible. That is until now.
Isolated in labs through rigorous processes, major manufacturers have be able to offer HHC products for easy consumption. You all must have tried delta 9, delta 8 or even CBD by now, but if you are keen on trying HHC products, we have a this complete guide for you. Here is everything you need to know about HHC and the top HHC products to try form.
HHC: Understanding the basics
HHC is perhaps one of the thousands of naturally occurring cannabinoids in the hemp plant. HHC can be quite similar to delta 8 as the cannabinoid is known for its balanced and mellow high. Chemically too, HHC has plenty of similarity with delta 8. The only difference is that the chemical structure of HHC is missing the double bonds found in delta 8. This change in chemical structure also allows HHC to be more stable which in turn increases the shelf life of HHC products. Plus, this also helps the cannabinoid maintain its potency over time.
Potency wise, HHC is known to offer similar effects like delta 8, however many users have pointed that HHC causes more potent effects than delta 8. When compared with delta 9, HHC is less potent.
