What Is THCP?
THCp (tetrahydrocannabiphorol) is one of the psychoactive chemicals found in the cannabis plant. THCp interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system in ways that are similar to THC. However, research tells us that even a small amount of this psychoactive cannabinoid has a powerful effect.
What Makes THCP Unique?
The research team behind the discovery of naturally occurring THCp found that the cannabinoid is naturally present in very small amounts in some strains of cannabis.
They also found some slight differences in the molecular makeup of THCp that make it a much more powerful cannabinoid than THC.
The key difference between THC and THCp is THCp’s longer alkyl side chains. If you aren’t familiar with these, that’s okay — we’ll explain quickly and move on.
Alkyl side chains are groups of chemicals made of a combination of carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms. The longer the chain, the better these chemicals are at binding to cannabinoid receptors in your brain. THC has a five-carbon chain, while THCp has a seven-carbon chain.
While this difference might seem small, the result is a much more intense high.
How Are THCP Products Made?
Professionals create THCp from cannabis in a lab using a process called decarboxylation. After the chemical was discovered as naturally occurring in 2019, decarboxylation became the standard for THCp synthesis.
The decarboxylation process for THCp starts with CGBA — a hemp-derived cannabinoid. When professionals in a lab remove its carbon dioxide content, CBGA becomes THCp.
The newly created THCp is then purified to make it safe for use in cannabis products. All of the THCp used in Mood’s products is thoroughly tested in third-party labs to guarantee safety and consistency.
THCP’s Legal Status
The Farm Bill made it possible to get access to THCp products in some parts of the USA.
Now, all hemp derivatives, including THCp, meet the Farm Bill’s definition of hemp as long as they contain no more than 0.3 percent Delta-9 THC based on weight. According to the Farm Bill, any hemp products above 0.3 percent Delta-9 are considered marijuana, which is federally illegal.
Mood makes enjoying high-quality THCp products easier than ever. All of our gummies, edibles, vapes, and more comply with the Farm Bill’s regulations and come from trustworthy, USA-based farms.
Before ordering for the first time, make sure you know your state’s specific regulations for THCp.
What Are the Effects of THCP?
THCp is a very potent cannabinoid, and it can have some intense psychoactive effects — even in low concentrations.
This is because THCp has a stronger binding affinity to the CB1 receptors in your brain, which means this relatively new cannabinoid can get you very high.
While you can always count on THCp for a uniquely powerful high, your overall experience will depend on the products you use.
For example, our Hero Dose Rapid Onset THC Gummies combine THCp with 15mg of Delta-8 and 15mg of Delta-9, giving you the perfect balance of relaxation, clear-headedness, and euphoria.
On the other hand, lower-quality THCp products, like what you might find at a gas station or convenience store, may give you a less predictable high. For the best possible experience, go with safe, lab-tested THCp from Mood.

Vapes: When you use a THCp vape, you can expect to get high fast and experience long-lasting effects. In addition, Mood’s disposable THC vapes feature a tailored combination of cannabinoids for a dynamic high.
