What Is THC?

Delta-9 Tetrahydrocannabinol (Delta-9 THC) is the main psychoactive compound in the cannabis plant — the one primarily responsible for the high you get from a cannabis gummy.

THC is a cannabinoid, a group of naturally occurring chemicals found in cannabis plants that have a range of unique effects. Other cannabinoids include cannabidiol (CBD), cannabichromene (CBC), and Delta-9 Tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCv).

Cannabis Edibles Explained

Cannabis edibles are tasty snacks and treats made with hemp extracts. These products harness the power of cannabinoids like Delta-9 THC to get you high.

Edibles come in many forms, including candies, baked goods, cannabis tinctures, and more. The main difference between these products is the flavor and texture of each bite.

How Are THC Gummies Made?

THC gummies feature the same ingredients as the classic chewy candies that you ate as a kid — with one exception. These edibles include a cannabis-infused oil or a similar hemp extract, which gives each gummy its psychoactive properties.

In addition to cannabis, a typical THC gummy formula includes sweeteners for flavor, natural colors, and ingredients that help the candies maintain their shape and texture. When you order your gummies from the Mood Shop, you get only vegan, non-GMO ingredients in each package.

Can You Make Homemade Cannabis Gummies?

A quick Google search will reveal tons of step-by-step gummy recipes. These DIY projects usually call for cannabis oil, along with some flavored Jell-O, soy lecithin, and a few other basic ingredients.

While making your own gummies at home isn’t insanely difficult, it’s definitely a time-consuming project.

In addition, on top of the ingredients, you’ll also need some specialized tools for the job, including gummy molds, a baking sheet, and a funnel or dropper.

You might have this stuff in your kitchen already, but if not, it can cost a pretty penny.

Even if you already know how to make cannabis gummies, we still recommend ordering online instead. It’ll save you time, trouble, and possibly money, especially if you don’t have the supplies handy.

Getting Started With Cannabis Edibles

If you’re new to cannabis edibles, we recommend starting out small.

Whether you’ve picked out gummies, baked goods, or something else, enjoy it responsibly and take your time. You don’t need to start with a full serving; try just a little bit and see how it makes you feel.

What If I Don’t Feel the Effects?

You won’t notice the effects of an edible right away. Sometimes, the onset of the psychoactive effects can take as long as two hours. If you’re not feeling the edible work yet, your best bet is to wait.

However, it’s also possible that you aren’t taking in the right amount of THC for you. If you have a high tolerance and are a longtime cannabis user, you might prefer a gummy mixture that contains more THC and other psychoactive cannabinoids.

FAQs About Edibles

Q: How should I store my cannabis edible gummies?

A: For the longest possible shelf life, keep your gummies in an airtight container and store them in a cool, dry place. Our packaging is designed to lock in freshness, so there’s no need to transfer your gummies to another container.

Q: Are edibles legal?

A: The Farm Bill changed the way that cannabis products like gummies and other edibles are regulated. This bill, enacted in 2018, made it possible to get hemp products (anything above 0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight) online or from a dispensary in some states.

All of the products in the Mood Shop meet the Farm Bill’s standards for hemp products and ship to many parts of the US. Make sure you check your state’s specific regulations before you checkout.

Q: Are gummies allergen-friendly?

A: Our gummies are made without any common allergens. They’re also free of animal products, including gelatin — an ingredient that you’ll often find in gummy bears.

Q: What do cannabis gummies taste like?

A: Gummies from Mood come in a variety of tasty flavors. We use natural ingredients like fruit juice extracts to give each gummy its unique taste. Expect just the right amount of sweetness and no “weed flavor.”
