About HHC
1.What is HHC?
HHC (Hexahydrocannabinol) is a hydrogenated form of THC, offering a similar experience but with a more balanced, milder effect. HHC can provide a relaxed, uplifted feeling without some of the intensity often associated with THC, making it an appealing option for those looking for a gentler experience.
2.How does HHC compare to THC and CBD?
HHC provides effects similar to THC, but many users report it’s a bit less potent. It’s great for relaxation and euphoria.THC is the psychoactive compound in cannabis that produces a “high” feeling and is generally stronger than HHC.CBD, on the other hand, is non-psychoactive and offers therapeutic benefits without a high, helping with anxiety, inflammation, and pain relief.
3.What is the difference between “hemp” and “marijuana/cannabis”?
Hemp (or “industrial hemp”) is the same plant species as Cannabis sativa L with one main key difference. Industrial Hemp varieties are cultivated to produce less than 0.3% total THC on a dry weight basis. All of our products are made with “industrial hemp” (Cannabis Sativa L).

4.What is the difference between HHC and HHCp?
HHC (Hexahydrocannabinol) and HHCp (Hexahydrocannabinol propyl) are both cannabinoids derived from the hemp plant. They are similar in structure but differ in their chemical composition. HHCp, is a variation of HHC with a slightly altered structure, making it significantly more potent and longer-lasting than HHC. If you're looking for a stronger experience, check out our Platinum Cartridges to try HHCp.
5.Will HHC get me high?
Yes, HHC can produce a mild-to-moderate high, but it’s generally less intense than traditional THC. Users describe the effects as clear-headed, relaxing, and uplifting without overwhelming psychoactive effects.
6.Is HHC safe?
Like all our products, HHC is lab-tested for safety and quality. While there is still ongoing research into HHC, current studies show it’s safe for consumption, with effects similar to other cannabinoids. We recommend starting with a low dose and adjusting based on your tolerance.
7.How should I dose HHC products?
If you're new to HHC, we suggest starting with a small dose. For edibles like gummies, start with 1/4 or 1/2 a piece. For vape products, take 1-2 puffs and wait about 30 minutes to see how you feel before consuming more. Remember, the effects may take time to fully set in.
8.How long do the effects of HHC last?
The effects of HHC vary depending on the consumption method. Vapes typically offer quicker onset and shorter-lasting effects (2-4 hours), while edibles like gummies may take longer to kick in but can last up to 6 hours or more. Everyone’s body is different, so start slow and adjust as needed.
9.Is HHC legal in the EU?
Yes, HHC is derived from hemp and is legal in most European countries, as long as it contains less than 0.2% THC (depending on local laws). We ensure all our products comply with EU laws, so you can enjoy them with peace of mind.(This question was poised to the minister of justice in Ireland and is clarified here. The Total THC threshold was originally < 0.2%, but as of January 2023, it was raised to < 0.3%.
Using our products
Do your products have test results?
Yes, all of our products are tested for potency and quality. All of our test results (called COA’s) are posted on the Lab Results page of our website. You will also notice that on each product there is a unique QR code sticker. This sticker can be scanned using the camera on your phone to bring up the specific test results for that product’s batch. A proper test result should always have a QR code that brings you to the original test, to ensure that the results are legitimate.
How do I interpret a COA (Certificate of Analysis) aka test result?
COAs provide a plethora of pertinent information about your product, but when you first see one, it may seem daunting to know what you are looking at. We’ve written a comprehensive guide to walk you through all elements of a test result so you can be empowered to know exactly what you are consuming.
How do I know what my dosage should be?
There has not been enough research published to definitively say the specific mg needed for each specific type of ailment. Each person’s journey with cannabinoid products is a personalized exploration, and leads to varying preferences. When consuming hemp edibles, the tried and true route is typically to start low and slow and work your way up as you see fit (you can always take more). Our gummies can be fairly potent, so we recommend cutting them smaller for your first time, starting around 5-10mg and working your way up from there. For vape products, take modest puffs and wait a few minutes to assess the effects before vaping more.
If I consume your products will It show up on a urine/drug test?
Most of our products have 0% THC so theoretically should not show up on a drug test, but cannabis drug tests are specifically testing for the metabolites of delta-9 THC in the body, which is 11 hydroxy THC. While it has been proposed that HHC will not turn into this metabolite once ingested, for now we recommend that it is not worth the risk if you are concerned about it, especially if your job depends on it.
What if I am taking other medications?
While hemp cannabinoids are generally known to be very safe with little to no harsh side effects, there is the potential that it could interfere with the effectiveness of some medications. Consult your healthcare provider if you are taking any prescription medications before using hemp cannabinoids. We want all of our clients to feel fully safe, informed, and empowered as they begin their hemp journey.
Are there any side effects to using HHC?
Like any cannabinoid product, HHC may cause mild side effects in some users, such as dry mouth, dizziness, or drowsiness. We recommend starting with a small dose and seeing how your body reacts. If you experience any discomfort, reduce your dosage or consult with a healthcare professional.
How should I store my HHC products?
To preserve the freshness and potency of your HHC products, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. For edibles, refrigeration is recommended to keep them fresh for longer.
