Cannabinoids like THCa are being used by people worldwide for numerous reasons. 

Maybe it’s an addition to someone’s wellness routine or perhaps they’re looking for a tool for self-growth. Once you decide to bring plant supplements like THCa into your life, you need to learn how much to take.

THCa product dosage doesn’t have a straightforward answer. There are several factors you need to consider when picking a dosage amount for your goals. By starting at a level that makes sense for you, you can avoid overdoing it and really enjoy the benefits THCa has to offer.

This guide aims to arm you with the information needed to make smart decisions about dosing THCa.

What’s the Proper THCa Product Dosage?

To answer that question best, you must look at the individual and their reason for taking THCa. An individual’s personal experience and use is a big piece in deciding what THCa dose is appropriate. Other factors like body type and even what strain of plant the THCa came from can also affect dosing.

People with Absolutely No Recent Cannabinoid Use 

For those who have had no recent experience with hemp or marijuana products it’s best to start with a really small dosage. From there you can work your way up as you get used to how it makes your body feel.

Start with a Microdose: 

A microdose of THCa is 1 to 2.5 milligrams. Try your first dose in a comfortable and safe space.

Note How You Feel:

Write down notes on how you feel after taking a THCa dose. This is helpful to look back on when you’re deciding if that’s the correct dose for you.

Repeat Step One and Two:

Repeat the first two steps for at least 5 days if you want to have a clear understanding of how your body is reacting to the THCa.

Increase if Needed:

Once you’ve had a few days to let your body adjust to the new addition, you can assess whether you want to increase the dosage amount. 

Repeat the Entire Process:

Continue repeating this entire process until you have found the dosage that works best for you.

Light Users of Cannabinoid Products

If there has been recent light-usage of hemp or marijuana products adding THCa into your routine should be easy. Start with a small dose of 2.5 to 20 milligrams of THCa. Note how you feel and stay at the dose for a few days. Once you feel comfortable move up the dosage amount until you reach the effects you were looking for.

Heavy Users of Cannabinoid Products

For regular users of hemp or marijuana products, it will be easy for you to add additional THCa amounts into your cannabinoid routine. Since you’re already very familiar with how your body reacts from cannabinoids you can simply add a milligram dosage amount you’re comfortable with and see how you do. As always, when trying something new do it from a safe and comfortable place.

Other Factors That Can Change Needed Dosage Amounts

Everyone is different and will experience THCa in their unique way. Sometimes there are things that can affect how someone might respond to a certain dosage level versus a different person.

• Body Type: Those with slow metabolisms or who have excess fat cells may need a higher dose than someone on the opposite side of the spectrum.
• Method of Consumption: Depending on how you consume THCa, there might be differences in dosage amounts. Smoking affects users rights away whereas edibles take a lot longer to enter the bloodstream. You may find you need more THCa when you smoke versus when you eat it.
• Strain of Plant: Different strains of hemp and marijuana plants will carry different terpenes which can vary the effects you feel. Sometimes you will need less of a certain strain depending on how the terpenes work for your body.

Ways to Consume THCa

When consuming THCa, it’s important to note that heat above 200 degrees Fahrenheit will convert the THCa into THC. If you’re looking to consume only THCa the best way to do this is by using raw hemp flower. This bud has only trace amounts of THC so you won’t get high. Simply grind up your raw hemp flower and add it into smoothies or on top of salads.

In Conclusion

Bringing THCa into your day-to-day routine can offer a lot of benefits. But you need to be informed so you know what you’re doing. Now that you have a thorough understanding of THCa product dosage amounts, you can start your journey using THCa!
