Got Questions? We’ve Got Answers.
Will THCa flower get me high?
Not in its raw form. THCa is non-psychoactive until it’s heated (a process called decarboxylation). When smoked, vaped, or baked, it converts into THC — which can produce an intoxicating effect. Read more about THCa [HERE]
What’s the difference between THCa flower and regular THC flower?
They come from the same plant, but THCa flower hasn’t been heated yet, so the THC is still in its acidic, inactive form. Once heated, THCa turns into THC, producing similar effects to traditional cannabis flower.
Is THCa flower legal?
Under federal law, THCa flower is legal if it contains less than 0.3% delta-9 THC by dry weight. However, laws can vary by state, and some states regulate or restrict THCa products — always check your local laws.
Why are people interested in THCa flower?
Many enjoy THCa flower because it offers a raw, unprocessed option that can be activated through heat. It’s a popular choice for those looking for a potent and flavorful flower experience, while still staying within hemp regulations (when applicable).
How do you use THCa flower?
You can enjoy it by:
- Rolling it into a joint or blunt
- Using a dry herb vaporizer
- Packing it into a pipe or bowl
Each method has its own feel, so it comes down to personal preference.
Is your flower legal to ship?
Yes. All hemp flower and related products offered by Cali Blendz are federally legal under the 2018 Farm Bill. We ship to any U.S. state where hemp CBD is legal, in full compliance with federal and state laws.
What’s the difference between THCa and CBD?
CBD (Cannabidiol) is a non-intoxicating compound known for its calming effects and natural support for anxiety relief, pain management, and overall wellness. It does not produce a “high.”
THCa (Tetrahydrocannabinolic Acid) is a precursor to THC. In its raw form, THCa is non-psychoactive. However, when heated (decarboxylated) — such as through smoking or vaping — it converts to THC, which is psychoactive. This means THCa products can produce stronger intoxicating effects, unlike CBD.
Are your products lab-tested?
Yes. All products sold by Cali Blendz undergo 3rd-party lab testing by a qualified laboratory. These tests verify purity, potency, and compliance with federal standards. The Certificates of Analysis (COAs) are accessible directly on each product page, ensuring transparency and trust.
How long does shipping take?
We offer same-day shipping Monday–Friday for all orders placed before 11 AM PST (2 PM EST).
Orders placed after that time will ship the next business day.
Delivery times vary by carrier and destination, but typically take 1–5 business days after shipment. We currently ship through USPS and UPS.
Free 2-Day Shipping is available on all orders over $100.
Will I feel high using your products?
CBD products: No, CBD is non-psychoactive and will not get you high.
THCa products: In their raw form, THCa is non-intoxicating. However, when heated(smoked or vaped), THCa converts to THC, which can produce a high.
