What Is the Difference Between Delta 8 and Delta 9 THC?

Delta 8 and Delta 9 THC have both become more and more popular over the last few years, especially here in Wisconsin. While both compounds stem from the same plant, they have distinct differences in their effects, chemical structures, and availability. 

How Do the Effects Differ?

Delta 9 THC, the primary psychoactive compound found in marijuana, is well-known for producing strong effects such as euphoria, heightened senses, and sometimes, more intense side effects like anxiety or paranoia. For that reason, Elevated Hemp Solution’s Happy Place Hemp Delta 9 gummies are balanced with a generous helping of CBD, producing more balanced effects. 

Delta 8 THC, on the other hand, is about 66% as potent as Delta 9 when consumed at the same dosage. It generally provides a more clear-headed and mellow experience. Many report feelings of relaxation and mild euphoria without the mental fogginess or anxiety that sometimes accompanies Delta 9 for some. To help you achieve the experience you crave, our Delta 8 gummies come in potencies of 25mg and 50mg. 

In summary, we make our Delta 8 gummies two to four times as strong as our Delta 9 gummies. 

Not only have we already considered these different effects as we’ve formulated our gummies for the ideal experience, we are also happy to chat with you to help you better choose the best product for you based on your tolerance and preferences. 

How Do the Chemical Structures Differ?

Both compounds are forms of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), but the difference lies in the intensity of the bond they form with carbon atoms in the molecular chain.

This small variation significantly impacts how the body processes and reacts to each compound. Delta 9 THC binds more strongly to the body’s CB1 receptors, particularly those in the brain, leading to its more immediate psychoactive effects. Delta 8 THC, meanwhile, has a slightly weaker bond with these receptors. But, keep in mind that the dosage will greatly affect your actual results. So, our higher dose Delta 8 gummies can certainly pack a punch all their own. 

Production Process and Availability

Another major difference between Delta 8 and Delta 9 THC is their natural abundance and how they are produced. Delta 9 THC is present in large quantities in hemp and marijuana plants, making its extraction relatively easy through traditional methods. This natural abundance explains why Delta 9 is often more widely available in various cannabis products.

In contrast, Delta 8 THC is only present in very small amounts in both marijuana and hemp plants. As a result, Delta 8 is typically synthesized from CBD extracted from hemp. This process often involves converting CBD into Delta 8 THC through chemical reactions, making production more complex compared to Delta 9.

Both Delta 8 and Delta 9 THC offer unique experiences, each with its own appeal. However, rest assured that we have taken the inherent differences between these two strains into account when formulating our gummies and determining their potencies. 

Elevated Hemp Solution is also here to answer your questions and provide further insights into what you’re likely to experience with each variety. We can also help you choose your favorite flavor!

Create Culinary Delights with THC

Prepare a special meal or snack that incorporates our THC-infused products. For a creative twist, use the flavors of our gummies as inspiration.

Remember to choose the right product for the right time of day – our sleep gummies are perfect for concluding a late-night Mother’s Day meal with a relaxing touch.

Suggest A Yoga or Meditation Class

Encourage Mom to participate in a yoga or meditation class, either in person or through an online platform like YouTube. The calming effects of our CBD and THC products greatly enhance these light activities. We recommend our full spectrum CBD or CBD + CBG gummies, designed to help deepen relaxation and increase mindfulness during these practices. Applying a topical CBD product beforehand can prepare the body and reduce the chance of muscle strain for those engaging in physical activities like yoga or light stretching.

Gift Her An Afternoon Enjoying Her Favorite Movies or a Book

If your mom relishes the chance to get lost in a good story, curate a movie marathon to her taste, or set up the space for getting lost in her favorite book, or a new title! For completely chill activities like these, maybe Mom will want something a little headier. You know her best! Swap out the usual afternoon tea or wine with a Drift seltzer to drift further into the plot! A true escape from the everyday. 

Explore Milwaukee

Milwaukee offers a variety of fun Mother’s Day activities that can be enjoyed throughout the city. Start with a leisurely stroll through the Milwaukee Public Museum for a dose of culture, or visit the Mitchell Park Horticultural Conservatory to experience the vibrant displays of spring blooms. If she enjoys nature, a trip to the Milwaukee RiverWalk might be just the perfect outing. After a day out, a topical salve from Elevated Hemp Solutions will soothe those sore feet. At the same time, a relaxing THC seltzer can conclude the day on a high note.

How is Drinking THC Seltzer Different from Eating Edibles?

Here at Elevated Hemp Solutions, we’re highly excited about Drift, our THC & CBD infused seltzer born out of a collaboration with 1840 Brewing Company. Infused seltzers are a great option to add to your THC/CBD cabinet or, in this case, your fridge! Whether you’ve yet to have one of these citrus delights, you may be wondering what sets CBD and THC seltzer apart from edibles. In other words, why is drinking THC or CBD different from eating it? We undertook the hard work of researching that for you! (In this case, research was a pleasant activity.) Keep reading to learn more.  

What is THC Seltzer? 

First of all, what is THC seltzer? This fizzy delight is exactly what it sounds like—refreshing, sparkling seltzer water infused with just the right amount of THC to give you that gentle buzz you love without having to light up or vape.

Now, we know you’re no stranger to the wonders of THC, but imagine kicking back with a chilled, lightly flavored seltzer that also gives you the chill vibes you’re after. It’s the perfect companion for social gatherings, a relaxing night in, or when you’re looking to cool off and take the edge off, without any smoke or strong odors.

Our THC seltzer is designed with you in mind and carefully dosed so you can keep track of your intake and enjoy responsibly. They are a tasty alternative to your usual go-to methods. It’s all about giving you more ways to enjoy the benefits of THC, in a fun, sociable, and refreshingly light way.

So, for those of you curious to dip your toes into something new, or just looking for a discreet and convenient option to add to your THC routine, our THC seltzer is here to make a splash. Trust us, it’s a game-changer in the world of cannabis consumption. Cheers to that!

How Long Does THC Seltzer Stay in Your System? 

One of the first things to know about infused liquid products as opposed to infused solids is that they tend to have a quicker onset. We’ve all experienced that dreaded “is this thing on?” moment with edibles, which can lead to ill-advised overconsumption. With THC and CBD infused liquids, like seltzers, you will likely experience effects more quickly after consumption. This means that you can get right down to relaxing and having a nice time without so much wait. 

How Long for THC Seltzer to Kick in

Exactly how long will it take for a THC and CBD seltzer to kick in? While the answer will be specific to the individual – and we can’t stress that point enough – you can generally expect to start experiencing effects within 15 to 60 minutes. 

In comparison to edibles that can take a while to kick in because they need to be digested, THC seltzers and other liquid infusions often work a bit faster in our experience. This is because some of the THC can be absorbed directly through your stomach lining, and the rest is processed more quickly than solid foods through digestion. However, it’s always wise to start with a low dose and go slow, especially if you’re new to cannabis-infused drinks. This way, you can gauge how a particular product affects you and avoid overdoing it. Remember, just like with any THC product, the key is finding what works best for you.

Are Infused Seltzers a Good Alternative to Alcohol? 

Absolutely! If you’re on the lookout for an alternative to alcohol, infused seltzers are a total game-changer. Picture this: all the bubbly fun of your favorite seltzer, but with a gentle THC and CBD twist instead of the booze. They’re the ultimate choice for anyone wanting to unwind without the hangover or calories that often come hand-in-hand with traditional alcoholic beverages. Whether you’re aiming to keep things light and friendly at a party or want to relax at home without the fuzziness of alcohol, these infused seltzers hit the spot. Plus, they’re a fantastic way to enjoy the vibes and benefits of cannabis discreetly and conveniently. So, next time you’re pondering drink options, why not reach for an infused seltzer and give your evening a mellow lift? Trust us, your body (and your head the next morning) will thank you.

When Might Gummies Be a Better Option?

There are definitely moments when reaching for a THC-infused gummy might be the better move, especially if you’re eyeing a good night’s sleep. Traditional edibles like gummies have a knack for providing a longer-lasting, more body-focused effect, making them a prime choice for those evenings when you’re looking to drift off into a peaceful slumber. The slow and steady release of THC from edibles, due to their digestion process, means that the effects take a bit longer to kick in and linger for more hours, offering a sustained relaxation that can help guide you into a deeper, more restful sleep. THC gummies hold their ground as a solid choice among the edible options. Thankfully, if these are the effects you’re seeking, we’ve got plenty of Delta 9 edibles, full-body CBD gummies, the best sleep gummies, and other infusions to choose from!

Ready to Drift into Happiness? 

Are you ready to give our infused CBD and THC seltzer a try and experience the mellow delights for yourself? Or are you already a fan and hankering for more?! You can pick up Drift at one of the many convenient retail spots that carry it in the greater Milwaukee area, order it online for home delivery, or you can stop into Elevated Hemp Solutions, say hi, and grab one from our seltzer cooler. Find yourself drifting into happiness during your next social event or just for a relaxing night in.
