Best known for:

Being a good cannabinoid for potentiation and harshness when vaped

H4CBD
Hexahydrocannabidiol
Hydrogenated CBD

Viscosity 

H4CBD has a high viscosity. It is one of the hardest cannabinoids available right now. 

Is it a phytocannabinoid? (naturally occurring cannabinoid)

H4CBD is not a phytocannabinoid

My Opinion

H4CBD is a great noid and one of my favorites for potentiation - when added to a blend it can add a great element to your high - it adds some feeling behind your eyes and a bit of couch lock.

 

Also unlike other cnoids, H4CBD is very mildly psychoactive to some. 

 

However, H4CBD has one large caveat - it is HARSH. Of all the cannabinoids I've tried, H4CBD is the hardest on the throat. It can feel like your throat is being sandblasted with tiny particulates. For this reason I would never have H4CBD over 40% in a blend that I plan to vape/

What can H4CBD do for a blend?
  • Great Potentiation

  • Mild Sedation

  • Calming

  • Shatter texture (when mixed with acetates and then stored cold)

  • Anxiety Relief ("taking the edge off")

Other notes:

I have seen on very rare occasions people claim that H4CBD got them the highest they've ever been in their lives, which is extremely peculiar. I would normally not mention this but over the last 2 years, I've seen maybe 10 people say this which makes me wonder if there's some weird enzyme or something that only a small part of the population has.

 

Either that or they got sold HHC as H4CBD. I keep seeing it being said though, so I feel like there may actually be something to it. If you are a person like this please contact me in chat because I'd like to know how other cannabinoids affect you.

Ok, so I've experimented with H4CBD some time, took bigger and bigger doses until an incident. Did edibles.

So I've had 200mg, 400mg, even 600mg, with mostly just a chill effect, bit scatterbrained, nothing serious.

So one day I took around 600mg, and later 300mg more. It felt kinda stronger, but nothing out of extraordinary.

I felt a bit tired and wanted to get some work done, so I took some THCV and CBC, that's when s**t hit the fan.

I couldn't think straight, I had a very short memory, forgot what I wanted to do. Then anxiety crept up on me, to a point when I really really couldn't think straight. I was sitting at my computer, opened a notepad and started typing a sentence what needs to be done, but mid sentence I forgot what was the start of my sentence. I put it to taskbar to see what I was doing and get an idea, then opened it, and forgot why it is opened.


I felt like my memory span has been reduced to a couple of seconds. Then came a panic attack. In my peripheral vision the light became darker and darker, almost like the light wasnt even on. My mouth started trembling like I was going to cry, I almost ran to my mom in the other room. Started googling panic helplines to chat with someone or do something.

Then I could manage to calm down a bit.


I got up and walked around the room, it was like time stopped while I was walking, and the world became a movie effect, everything became blurred while I walked. I even heard some kind of "slowmo sound" when I walked or looked elsewhere. But I felt like I teleported from 1 place to another, because of the second long memory span.

I started eating a cookie, later on I stopped chewing it, and like half a minute later realized there is a cookie in my mouth which I don't remember putting it there.


I heard auditory hallucinations, anxiety and panic attacks came in waves, like suddenly huge amount of anxiety, and I started panicking, but I forgot why I was panicking and calmed down. There were like 5 cycles of this till I got fixed it into my memory that there is no problem anxiety just hits me sometimes but I will calm down.


During the panic attacks I heard voices even louder. All my thoughts were vocalized. Like my inner voice had personalities and if I thought about going to the bathroom there was a voice telling it and another acknowleding it or panicking that no I shouldn't because what if I meet with someone in the house...

So overall like I was skizophrenic (have family history in it though, so I got kinda scared)


1-2 sec memory span meant that I forgot why or what I was starting to think during my thought process, and that thought became "alien" in my mind, and I thought I had different personalities living in me, one calm, one anxious, one who would like to play something etc... and I got cycled though them.


Spent like 3 hours walking around in my room.

I remember seeing the room in black and white + brown (the furniture)

Warm yellow light was changing color from light green to purple to dark grayish.


When I dared to close my eyes I had extreme closed eye visuals which gave me anxiety so I opened them and jumped up.


Manage to sleep in the end, was foggy the next day, but everything returned to normal the day after.


And I was stupid enough to do this half a year later, but I think I ate even more (didn't had a scale lol) and for the sake of it added some 1g of psilocybin shrooms.

Ok, so that was even a worse trip.

Schizophrenic symptoms were more apparent. I started texting my friend to come over because I effed up, and a voice commanded me and screamed at me not to until I put down my phone. Later I managed to text him to come over.

Everything had personalities, even furniture, they freaking talked to me.

I felt extreme derealization. Like when you are in a dream and hear your alarm and that moment between waking up and dreaming, paired with extreme anxiety. Like I'm about to leave this reality and I'm just looking at a screen from inside my body.

Took H4CBD, shrooms, thcv, cbc that time.

So eventually my friend came over, we talked, I always forgot what I was talking about but he was there and reminded me and calmed me down.

Like again, everything back to normal.

I don't take heroic doses from this stuff again. 150mg max


Oh, and I didn't have much tolerance when these happened. Only maybe from H4CBD from the days before, but didn't even smoke daily or even weekly at that time.


For me I think it clearly is THCV and CBC that potentiates this, but mostly THCV I think

9/10. H4CBD is CBD's bigger, stronger and more relaxed brother. It is made by adding 4 hydrogen atoms to the CBD chain (Hence the name H4). It can be described best as having 5-10x stronger medicinal effects than regular CBD with some body high (couch lock) effects. If the phorols and acetates are too strong for you, or you are just looking for something lighter and shorter (about 3-4 hou‏rs), you have to try H4CBD, you will love it. If taken in edible form, doses over 1500mg can have deliriant effects. Even better than CBN for Insomnia. Very sedating but also clear minded. Unique and amazing, one of my all time favourites, if only if it wasnt SO HARSH when vaped or smoked, I would have given it a 10/10.

Took 400mg and tripped very hard at points, including audio and visual hallucinations, cevs that were like watching a video, oevs, EXTREME body load, my body "dissolved" at times, and I also felt as if I left my body, and was traveling very quickly in a variety of directions and patterns. This only occurred 3-4 hours after consumption and lasted for and hour before I fell asleep while still tripping.

I had a similar experience on 310mg d9 + 360mg h4cbd-o. Strongest I've tripped in years including DMT trips. I had the exact same thing you describe, OEVs on par with 200+ug LSD, my body and being dissolving etc.

Well its not surprising that "h4cbd-o" resulted in an intense psychedelic effect, you were smoking on God knows what. There is no recorded compound of H4CBD-O nor H4CBD Acetate.

So yes It did get me high the first time, But I think I ate some one time and that had a HEAVY body load and I was panicking so. Be careful with this one

For those who got super high, I've been wondering if they had an extremely high body load of active noids (for example, going to piss positive for the next 60-90 days), then take a big dose of H4 which potentiates everything already in the body (and possibly resets/reduces tolerance to them at same time).

Where did you hear that it could possibly reset or reduce tolerance? I’m intrigued.

Felt like a psychedelic or like dxm, had auditory hallucinations and closed eyes visuals. Felt like I was gonna die with the worst racing heart.

Yeah like the sounds and visuals weren’t fun they were just scary, like I was in a nightmare. Have had it in vape blends and was fine but when taken as an edible it was completely different, could feel my heart beating against my throat it was so bad. Literally like a delirant and psychedelic with dissociative properties. Also it took so long to sleep cause of my fans white noise warping into looping scary sounds with scary ass visuals

I got the same racing heart feeling when I took a megadose which was honestly quite concerning because no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get my heartrate to be at a reasonable pace. It was honestly very uncomfortable.

Not to be a wise guy or anything, I am being honest. After experimenting with smaller amounts, I ate 500 mg H4CBD from well-known suppliers and worked out at the gym for an hour and a half. I didn't notice anything. Today I took 300 mg with the same result. I've also taken 300 mg a few times around bedtime and my sleep didn't seem any different. I normally take 300 mg of regular Broad or Full Spectrum CBD distillate before going to the gym, and the same around bedtime. So far, I haven't noticed increased pain relief, sedation, or any other significant effects from H4CBD. I am a more-than-50-year cannabis user with a fairly high tolerance to THC. BTW I believe I read somewhere that CBD normally does not build tolerance the way THC does, due to different ways in works on the cannabinoid receptors, and of course regular CBD usually only affects CB2 receptors. Thank you for this website. I respectfully suggest that the community poll on effects should have an option for "None of the above," for cases where people find that to be the case. I have indeed put a nice amount of H4CBD into a high-potency distillate blend. Perhaps it will work better for me that way.

H4CBD works at 5HT2C and mACH receptors as well as cannabinoids in exceeding doses I think that's how it potentiates the psychoactive noids, it gave me visuals similar to mixing a psychedelic with a deliriant but without the headspace at about 2000mg
