My Opinion
D8 THC is a noid I feel gets written of quickly by most people in this space. While on its own its harsh and lacks a certain "fullness" to the blend, there is no denying that D8 hits quickly for a very cerebral high in a way the other noids don't. As I will talk about below, this make it not so great for use on its own but it can do a lot of work in a blend.
Another thing to note about D8 is that it's cheap as hell - as of writing this you can snag it for 60 cents a gram. Crazy stuff.
What can D8 THC do for a blend?
-
Add an initial quick hit - easy way to make the beginning of the high more exciting
-
D8 provides a good high for a daytime or work blend alongside stimulating noids like CBG and THCv
-
Good to pair with the acetates for the head high and quick hit they are lacking
Other notes:
N/A
the only good experience i've had with delta 8 gummies was Cali Xtrax's Level Up gummies. BUT they are advertised as being a 5000mg bottle of "THCA, O and P" but it turns out that there was only 5mg of the THC A, the O and the P- and the remaining like.... 4k+ mg was literally all delta 8. Doesn't say that anywhere on the site- says it on the bottle in TINY letters. I have a weed tolerance but not really a delta 8 tolerance- and I ate 800 mg. It was actually quite pleasant- very warm body buzz- strong head high. gummies tasted like straight fuckin soap tho... had to partially chew them then wash em down lol. 25 200mg gummies for 24$ isn't bad though.
D8 is boring for me, HHC is a million times better
Probably my favorite functional noid, such that I am able to function while also feeling the effects of it. Personally, it puts me into what I call a "philosopher high", such that I begin to ponder even the most simple of things to gain a better understanding of the world around me.
Delta 8 the staple and OG of the alt-noid community. Delta 8 was many of our first intros to alt-noids and for good reason. Versatile, Cheap, and Enjoyable. 0.80% as strong as D9 (roughly) It is a good headspace for anything! Relaxing, Sleep, Work, Fun, Weirdness, Fiends, Wizards, Laser owners, AI freaks you name it D8 can enhance it, 10/10 noid
