WHAT IS THC-O?

THC-O stands for THC-O-acetate — it’s a form of THC roughly 3x as potent as delta 9 THC and 5x more potent than delta 8.

​

THC-O is a stronger analog of delta 9 THC. It takes longer to kick in but produces effects that are roughly three times as strong as conventional THC.

​

This cannabinoid has been around for decades already, but it’s only become popular in the mainstream cannabis market in recent months — likely driven by the rapidly developing delta 8 market.

​

The concept of having more than one type of THC is well-established at this point. Users are looking beyond conventional THC at a new lineup of THC analogs on the horizon.
