THCH-O vs THC-H: Which Is Better?

THCH-O is a modified form of THC-H, one of the newest naturally occurring cannabinoid discoveries in the hemp plant.  Let’s compare these two cannabinoids to one another to help you understand how they differ from each other.

Why Choose THCH-O?

THCH-O Origins 

THCH-O, aka tetrahydrocannabihexol acetate, which refers to the acetated form of THC-H – aka, THC-H enhanced with an acetate to make it even more psychoactive.  

THCH-O’s Psychoactive Properties

One thing we do know about THCH-O is that it is extremely intoxicating, maybe as intoxicating as THC-P, and we know this because of how efficiently it attaches to CB1 receptors in the brain that create the psychoactive response associated with THC cannabinoids in general, especially thanks to the enhancement of an acetate.  

Purpose for Taking THCH-O

We still don’t know about potential therapeutic uses of THCH-O, so basically its main purpose as of now is to enjoy a powerful recreational high.

THCH-O’s Legality 

THCH-O is federally legal as it’s protected under the 2018 Farm Bill.  This law states that hemp products are legal as long as they possess no more than 0.3% delta 9 THC by dry weight.  While THCH-O is legal under federal law, some states have prohibited psychoactive cannabinoids like delta 8 THC, and those states likely prohibit THCH-O sales as well.  Those states are:

• Alaska
• Arizona
• Arkansas
• Colorado
• Delaware
• Hawaii (oral and inhalable products)
• Idaho
• Iowa
• Mississippi
• Montana
• Nevada
• New York
• North Dakota
• Oregon
• Rhode Island
• Vermont
• Utah
• Washington

Why Choose THC-H?

THC-H Origin

THC-H, the precursor to THCH-O, was first isolated in 2020, by Italian cannabis researchers – in fact, the same cannabis researchers who first isolated THC-P in 2019.  What we know about the atomic structure of THC-H is that it has a 6 alkyl side chain, hence the “hexol” in the name.  THCH-O has a chemically enhanced side chain that likely makes it between 1.5 to 2 times as potent.

THC-H’s Psychoactive Properties

Those who have taken it describe THC-H’s high as profoundly euphoria-inducing, which is great for anyone seeking out potent uplifting effects.  Another commonly reported effect is a potent body high effect that induces couchlock for quite a while.

Purpose for Taking THC-H 

Since THC-H is non-psychoactive, the reason a person would seek it out is likely because they like CBD’s properties, but want something stronger.  Those who have used it have report very positive mood effects, and that seems to be the biggest part of its appeal.

THC-Hs Legality 

Like THCH-O, THC-H is protected under the 2018 Farm Bill.  And, it’s likely that THC-H is banned in the same states that have banned other THC cannabinoids that are psychoactive. That means that THC-H would be banned in:

• Alaska
• Arizona
• Arkansas
• Colorado
• Delaware
• Hawaii (oral and inhalable products)
• Idaho
• Iowa
• Mississippi
• Montana
• Nevada
• New York
• North Dakota
• Oregon
• Rhode Island
• Vermont
• Utah
• Washington

Final Decision: THCH-O and THC-H – Which One is for You?  

The main takeaway is that THCH-O is just a more potent form of THC-H.  Plus, THC-H is already the second most intoxicating cannabinoid in cannabis. So, consider your tolerance and the level of intoxication you want to get out of hemp, and choose your cannabinoid wisely.
