Posted by Amy Jowell onTHCA isn’t psychoactive until heated—smoking/vaping/baking converts it into THC (decarboxylation), which is what causes the high. When buying, check a recent, batch-matched full-panel COA showing THCA, THC, Total THC plus safety tests (solvents, pesticides, heavy metals, microbes), and confirm shipping rules for your state.
