Are marijuana and crystal meth both THC drugs?
Marijuana contains delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which is a psychoactive compound that produces the "high" sensation. Crystal meth, on the other hand, is a different drug made from methamphetamine, which affects the central nervous system in a different way than THC.
How is THC put on marijuana?
THC occurs naturally in the marijuana plant in small, crystal-like structures called trichomes. These trichomes produce and store the THC and other cannabinoids that give marijuana its psychoactive effects. When the marijuana plant is harvested, dried, and then heated (through smoking, vaporizing, or cooking), the THC is activated and can be ingested to produce its effects.
What does THC look like?
THC is a crystalline substance that appears as a white powder or crystal in its pure form. In cannabis products, THC can be found as a sticky resin that can range in color from light amber to dark brown, depending on the strain and method of extraction.
Is Delta 9 THC and delta 9 Carboxy THC the same thing?
No, they are not the same. Delta-9 THC is the primary psychoactive component in cannabis, while delta-9 carboxy THC is a metabolite of delta-9 THC that is produced in the body after THC consumption. Delta-9 carboxy THC is not psychoactive and is often used in drug tests to detect cannabis use.
How do you get THC in your body?
THC is the psychoactive compound in cannabis that can enter the body through ingestion, inhalation, or absorption through the skin. The most common ways to consume THC are smoking or vaping cannabis, consuming edibles, or using tinctures or topicals that contain THC.
