HHC Was discovered in 1940 by Roger Adams, a chemist from America. HHC was synthesized for the first time in 1944. It is a cannabinoid found in small amounts in the hemp plant, hemp seed and pollen. HHC is not 100% synthetic like the Spice of yesteryear. HHC is called semi-synthetic because although it is found in small amounts in the hemp plant, in practice it is obtained through synthetic processes, as the amount is just too small for efficient extraction. Most cannabinoids can be converted into other cannabinoids by changing chemical structures. Typically, it is extracted from CBD flowers, which are then converted into HHC. According to the latest findings, HHC could produce degradation products similar to THC.
At a conference of the European Monitoring Center for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) the cannabinoid HHC was discussed. A total of over 140 experts were present at the conference. HHC was compared to synthetic spice on this. Spice consists of synthetic cannabinoids and is often used to cut cannabis. This is dissolved by volatile solvents such as acetone or ethanol before it is applied to flowers and evaporates after a short time. HHC is now under special surveillance by the authorities.
HHC means hexahydrocannibinol and is abbreviated to HHC. The hydrogenated derivative of THC becomes HHC, but of course it can also be made from cannabidiol (CBD).
Since HHC has almost the same effects as THC and even seems to be legal in England, there are many reasons to buy HHC flower. HHC has a smoother and milder flow than THC. It can stimulate the appetite and can also have positive effects on the stomach.
HHC flowers can be bought cheaply online. There are various CBD shops on the Internet where HHC weed can be bought online, but the quality is often questionable. We do not recommend purchasing HHC flower as HHC is partly a chemical cannabinoid, which is not the case with our CBD flower. Furthermore, experience has shown that HHC can have a similar effect to THC. Instead of HHC, we recommend our natural CBD flowers such as White Melon or Purple Haze.
Update of the legal situation: Since July 13th, 2022, HHC seems to be legal as an individual substance in England - which is not clearly formulated. Insiders assume that there is a criminal liability gap. Unlike THC, it does not fall under the Narcotics Act or the Narcotic Substances Act, as HHC is not listed by name or as a stereochemical variant of the banned substances. However, this does not apply to synthetic preparations of HHC. These substances are prohibited as they could fall under the english 'New Psychoactive Substances Act' (NpSG). In addition, the current legal situation for HHC flowers is difficult. HHC flowers are classic CBD flowers with HHC enrichment.
HHC flowers are legal because they are hemp flowers from EU hemp seeds. In order for the flowers of the hemp plant to be legal, they must have a THC content of less than 0.2%. There must be a commercial or scientific purpose that excludes misuse for intoxicating purposes. If the tetrahydrocannabinol content does not exceed 0.2% and the HHC flowers are only sold for commercial or scientific purposes, they are legal.
Technically, HHC is not THC and is therefore not subject to government control. However, HHC could be classified as illegal in the future, just like Delta 8-THC is currently the case. Therefore, those who source HHC products should be careful. If the legalization of cannabis in England goes according to plan, HHC can also be legalized. In addition, anyone flying abroad should inquire in advance what the existing laws are in the country they are visiting.
HHC flowers can be bought legally in England. It is not known how long this will continue to be the case. It can only be speculated how long HHC will be legal in England since it exhibits psychoactive states like THC.
CBD is classified by the WHO as safe and well tolerated. Unlike CBD, there are no valid claims for HHC yet, so this cannabinoid should be handled with great care. HHC is not subject to the english drug law. However, unlike HHC flowers, CBD flowers can have natural terpenes.
Although the effects of HHC and THC appear to be very similar, there are four main differences between them. The biggest difference is in the molecular structure. Contrary to the strong similarities between delta-8 ("legal") THC and illegal delta-9 THC, HHC is structurally very different at key points within the molecule. In addition, THC is quickly “degraded” by heat and light and often turns into CBN (cannabinol) in nature. On the other hand, HHC is considered a much more stable compound as it is highly resistant to such effects. The third big difference is the density of the cannabis plants. Hemp strains can have relatively low THC levels (0.2%), but can also reach levels of over 20% (medicinal cannabis). In contrast, natural HHC is only available in small quantities and cannot be propagated without synthesis. THC is classified as a narcotic in most countries around the world (including England) and is banned for recreational use. In addition, HHC has not yet been judged. Because of this, many consider it "legal". Unlike HHC products, CBD products like Medihemp's organic CBD oils are without a doubt legal.
CBG comes from the early stages of the hemp plant. Cannabigerol is dubbed the "mother of all cannabinoids" because it is the first cannabinoid produced when a new cannabis plant begins to grow. All other cannabinoids are biosynthesized from it. You can read more about CBG here. Experience has shown that the effects of CBG and HHC are very similar for most users. It can help you calm down and relax, as well as having a positive effect on mood, sleep and even appetite. Among other things, our CBG flowers are now available in the CBD Shop in Hamburg.
HHC (hexahydrocannibinol) can induce a slight high in the body - at least that's what different testers report. HHC has a smooth and mild course, but can still be psychoactive. Every body can react differently to HHC. HHC could also cause dizziness or fatigue.
According to current knowledge, the answer to the question of whether HHC makes you "high" is yes, because HHC is a mind-altering substance. It is difficult to say exactly how strong this effect is - at the same time it is related to the question of defining "high". Therefore, it can be said that the effects of HHC are similar to those of THC, but less powerful. Consumers describe this effect as comparable to many THC-containing varieties - here you can find information about the legal situation regarding THC in England.
There is no precise information as to whether you can drive a car after using HHC. However, it is clearly not advisable to do so, as HHC is said to have a similar psychoactive effect to THC - we advise against the consumption of HHC-containing products either way. Safe driving, on the other hand, is possible with broad-spectrum CBD oils.
The effects of HHC are very similar to those of THC. The big difference to THC is the duration of the effect. There is a feeling that the effects of HHC last longer. According to various reports, HHC is psychoactive, in contrast to our CBD flowers.
