Today, THCA diamonds are quickly becoming a staple in the cannabinoids industry and winning so many hearts along the way.

From their mesmerizing crystalline structures to increasing the potency of your dabbing experience, your pre rolls and so much more, THCA diamonds are one of the recent trends that have captivated the hemp-derived products marketplace.

But what exactly are the effects of THCA diamonds and how do they compare to the cannabinoids that we already know and are used to?

Keep reading to find out more. And if you’re looking to try THCA diamonds, head over to our shop and get some of our new Double Doinks! These are hemp pre rolls infused with liquid THCA diamonds and covered in kief. These offer an unparalleled experience both in flavor and potency.

 

Key Takeaways

• In its original form, THCA diamonds do not yield very impressive results as THCA is non-psychoactive.
• However, after decarboxylation in the presence of heat, THCA diamonds become a very potent source of THC.
• THCA diamonds contain at least 97% THC which makes them very potent when you heat them and liberate the THC.

 

What are THCA Diamonds?

Before we explore what THCA diamonds are, let us examine THCA itself.

Tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (or THCA) is one of three precursor compounds in hemp and cannabis. The remaining two are cannabidiolic acid (CBDA) and cannabichromenic acid (CBCA). Specifically, THCA is the precursor to THC, the psychoactive cannabinoid that produces the infamous “high” associated with cannabis plants.

You should note that in its original form, THCA is not psychoactive and will not get you high. However, in the presence of heat, the compound decarboxylates and converts from THCA to THC.

Now, let’s move on to THCA diamonds.

 As the name implies, THCA diamonds have a solid, semi-transparent crystalline structure and indeed look like diamonds, or at least precious stones. However, unlike most diamonds, THCA diamonds are usually yellow or orange in color.

Interestingly, THCA diamonds are one of the purest THC-dominant cannabinoids on the market, as they can contain up to 99.9% THC when they are heated and decarboxylation occurs. As a result, many people prefer to consume THCA diamonds by vaping or dabbing, as this produces the requisite amount of heat to induce decarboxylation effectively.

 

What are the Effects of THCA Diamonds?

In their original form, THCA diamonds do not have very significant effects on the body. This is because THCA’s molecular structure and size prevent it from binding with the CB receptors in the body’s endocannabinoid system.

However, THCA diamonds are still likely to produce effects like better relaxation, pain relief, and an appetite boost.

 

What are the Benefits of THCA Diamonds?

There still isn’t enough research on THCA to conclusively state its benefits and how intense they can be. However, some preliminary research and anecdotal evidence suggest that THCA can still lend some of the benefits we’ve come to associate with other cannabinoids like CBD and THC.

Here are some of the potential effects of THCA diamonds:

• THCA diamonds may have analgesic properties and may help relieve pain.
• Also, THCA may have antiemetic effects, which can help reduce nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite.
• THCA may be anti-inflammatory.
• Intense relaxation and improved sleep are also potential effects of THCA diamonds.
• Since they help the muscles relax, THCA diamonds may also be antispasmodic and may help suppress muscle spasms.

However, more studies are necessary to provide more insight into just what THCA is capable of and how it can benefit the body.

 

How Strong are THCA Diamonds?

THCA diamonds themselves are non-psychoactive. So, there may be no measure or estimate how strong they are. However, the narrative changes significantly upon the introduction of heat to induce decarboxylation.

Depending on the THCA diamond potency in question, they typically contain 97 to 99% concentrate, which makes them one of the potent sources of THC. Therefore, as a source of THC, THCA diamonds are extremely strong as most of the other concentrates only contain between 70 and 90% THC.

If you’re trying THCA diamonds for the first time, we recommend starting very small, as even the smallest dose can get you high super fast. More importantly, the psychoactive effects of THCA diamonds will typically stay with you for longer due to its high THC concentration.

 

Do THCA Diamonds Get You Higher?

The answer is yes. THCA diamonds are one of the most potent sources of THC. Therefore, once you apply heat to cause the conversion of THCA to THC, you’ll be liberating upwards of 97% THC.

So, yes, THCA diamonds will get you higher than most of the other hemp-derived cannabinoids or concentrates. Therefore, you should be extra careful when consuming THCA diamonds, especially if your tolerance level is not very high.

 

How to Smoke THCA Diamonds

There are several ways consumers choose to smoke and enjoy THCA diamond effects. Here are some of the more popular methods:

Dabbing Diamonds

One of the more popular ways to enjoy THCA diamonds is through dabbing. In this case, you’ll need a glass dab rig. Typically, there are a few components to a dab rig — the rig itself, a nail or banger (usually metal or quartz), and accessories such as a carb cap.

Once you acquire your dab rig, you’ll need to heat the bottom of the dab rig nail to the perfect temperature, then allow it to cool down a bit before adding a dab of the THCA diamonds. Once it’s in place, you simply inhale through the mouthpiece for a few seconds.

Using a Wax Vaporizer

Wax vaporizers are another method of smoking THCA diamonds. These vaporizers are generally much easier to use and require only the vaporizer itself and your THCA diamonds.

While there are several types or styles of wax vaporizers, each one contains the same essential components:

• A chamber for the concentrate.
• A heating element like a ceramic coil to heat the concentrate.
• A mouthpiece from which to inhale the vapor.
• A battery, usually rechargeable via a USB cable.

With a wax vaporizer, all you’ll need to do is fill the chamber with your THCA diamonds and push the button that vaporizes the diamonds to convert them to THC-rich smoke. However, you should note that wax pens get much hotter than typical vape pens and require more maintenance to keep them in good working condition.

Sprinkle in a Bowl, Pipe, Joint, Spliff, or Blunt

You can also simply sprinkle your THCA diamonds into your bong, pipe, or other smoking accessories and administer it that way. Of course, you can be sure that the diamonds will add THC potency to whatever flowers or herbs you’re already smoking.

THCA Diamond-Infused Pre Rolls

What if you don’t want to go through the stress of acquiring dab rigs or vaporizers and then filling them up with THCA diamonds every time you want to smoke. The answer is diamond-infused pre rolls!

With THCA diamond-infused pre rolls, all you need to do is light up your blunt and take a drag. No need for extra preparation or complex accessories. Check out the Delta Munchies website for your 100% organic, high-quality THCA diamond-infused pre-rolls.

 

Are Diamonds Better Than Shatter?

THCA diamonds and shatter have quickly become a point of comparison and controversy, especially because they have a somewhat similar physical appearance. So, if you’re wondering which is more potent, you’re not alone.

Shatter is a form of cannabis concentrate with a very brittle consistency that ‘shatters’ when you try to pick it up. Hence, its name. However, unlike THCA diamonds that have a solid, crystal appearance, shatter looks like sheets.

But which is more potent?

THCA diamonds contain at least 97% and up to 99% THCA, which eventually converts to THC when you smoke them. However, the best case scenario for shatter usually maxes out at 90% THC, with some containing as low as 70%. As a result, THCA diamonds are far more potent than shatter.

However, this is not to say you should underestimate shatter, as it is at least four times more potent than regular flowers. It just pales in comparison to THCA diamonds effects.

 

Are Diamonds Better Than Live Resin?

Live resin describes the sauce-like consistency of dabs that many cannabis product consumers have come to love. But is live resin better than THCA diamonds?

The answer is no.

Again, THC diamonds contain between 97 and 99% THC, while live resin typically contains only 30-40% dissolved THCA complete with terpenes and other cannabinoids. As a result, THCA diamonds’ potency far exceeds that of live resin.

However, live resin will give you more of a better entourage effect if that’s what you’re going for.

 

Are THCA Diamonds Legal?

Yes, THCA diamonds are legal at the federal level in the United states. This is because THCA diamonds fulfill the requirements of legal hemp in the 2018 Farm Bill by containing no more than 0.3% THC. In addition, there is little or no danger of getting addicted to THCA.

However, THCA legislation varies from state to state. So, you should look into the laws in your state before trying to buy or consume THCA.

 

Conclusion — THCA Diamonds Effects

In its original form, the THCA diamonds effects are not very impressive. However, since it’s one of the most abundant sources of THC as a concentrate, applying heat to THCA changes the entire game.

Upon decarboxylation, THCA diamonds can yield very potent effects that will keep you coming back for more.
