An end to synthetic cannabinoids
At the end of March 2025, the Government Gazette published a decree stating: "The inclusion of chemically analogous molecules of the substances D9-tetrahydrocannabinol (D9-THC) and cannabidiol (CBD), which have psychotropic activity, in Table B of par. 2 of Article 1 of the Code of Laws on Narcotic Drugs (Law 3459/2006, A 103), as amended by [...]
What is the Delta BZ10?
Delta BZ10 is a combination of 10-OH-HHC, CBN and CBC, three cannabinoids that act synergistically as in the Entourage effect that sees various compounds found in cannabis working together to create subtle and effective benefits to deliver a unique experience. This cannabinoid is a powerful alternative derivative of THC, designed [...]
What is THCA and how are THCa flowers made?
Tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA) is one of the most misunderstood and controversial cannabinoids in the cannabis plant. THCA is produced naturally within the glandular hairs of cannabis and cannabis flowers and, along with CBDA, is responsible for causing cell death (necrosis) within the plant. Necrosis is a vital process that [...]
10-OH-HHC: The replacement for HHC
The 10-OH-HHC has finally arrived in the Greek market. A few of you will remember all the cannabinoids we have known since the HHC ban but we are sure that many more will be the ones who will finally learn about 10-OH-HHC. 10-OH seems to be the replacement for HHC after all. No other alternative cannabinoid so far has [...]
What is CBG9?
CBG9 (cannabigerol 9) is a relatively unknown cannabinoid found in cannabis. Although its structure is similar to CBD, slight changes in its molecular structure offer different effects. Unlike CBD, CBG9 has some very mild psychoactive effects. These effects may be comparable for some to those [...]
What is 10-OH-HHC and how is it formed?
10-OH-HHC is the hydroxy derivative of hexahydrocannabinol (HHC). We have already written quite a bit about HHC in previous articles. It is a cannabinoid discovered in 1944 by Roger Adams when he converted THC to HHC through the hydrogenation process. 10-OH-HHC is produced by the oxidation of HHC with the help of an enzyme found [...]
What is THCJD?
While there are approximately 113 cannabinoids naturally occurring in the industrial and recreational cannabis plant, there are also compounds that can be synthetically created. However, many consumers are turned off by a product when they realize it is synthetic. Although synthetic cannabinoids are nothing to fear, because they are still beneficial cannabinoids, we would like you [...]
Why is it dangerous to vape THC-O Vapes?
THC-O is created by converting CBD to either delta 9 THC or delta 8 THC, and then converting these cannabinoids to their acetate form, which is called THC-O for short. The studies mentioned in the note at the top of this article show that when enough heat is applied to THC-O, the thermal [...]
What is THCH?
THCH, or D9-tetrahydrocannabinexol, is a phytocannabinoid that resembles THC, but with a six-membered alkyl chain instead of a five-membered one. This makes it about 10 times more potent than THC in terms of psychoactive potency. THC-H is a unique cannabinoid distinguished by a longer n-hexyl side chain consisting of six [...]
What is THCB?
THCB, or D9-tetrahydrocannabutol, is a phytocannabinoid found in the cannabis plant. It is a homologue of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the main psychoactive component of cannabis. Structurally, the two compounds differ only in that the pentyl side chain of THC is replaced by a butyl side chain in THCB In the cannabinoid universe, THCB is a relatively [...]
The cannabinoid race continues: what is H3CBN and TP-Hy4CBN?
With the ban of HHC on 17 January 2024 in Greece, a large audience for scientists and laboratories working with hemp in Europe has been lost. This was preceded by the ban in France in June '23 and sales in the industry had already fallen dramatically, so they had to work hard to [...]
What is CB9?
CB9 is a new distillate of the well-known and widely used cannabinoids, and is currently the next best thing in the world of legal cannabis products. CB9, which is derived from CBD, is a newly discovered cannabinoid found in small traces of one of the rare cannabinoid extracts. It has a [...]
What is CBDQ?
CBDQ is an experimental cannabinoid with fewer uses than CBD or THC, but there is a possibility that it may be better at fighting certain cancer cells. CBDQ and similar oxidized derivatives of CBD are gaining attention for their potential use in cancer, obesity, fibrosis, and diabetes. Like the mother [...]
What is THCPO?
If you're here you've probably read about the cannabinoid THCP which has 30 times the potency of traditional THC, so here we're going to talk about the new cannabinoid THCPO. THCPO is an exciting breakthrough in the world of synthetic cannabinoids, emerging as a derivative of tetrahydrocannabinphorol (THCP), a duplicate of the famous psychoactive compound THC. It is composed [...]
What is H4CBD?
H4CBD or hexahydrocannabidiol, also known as hydrogenated CBD, is a synthetic compound capable of interacting with the endocannabinoid system. In other words, it is a lab-produced cannabinoid derived from CBD using specialized chemical synthesis techniques. Although H4CBD is gaining some popularity lately, it is important to note that [...]
HHCPO, C4B, HSD what are they?
The prohibition of HHC in several European countries such as France, Sweden and Finland has brought to the fore new cannabis-like enteral molecules that are essentially derived from the processing of HHC. What is HHCPO? HHCPO is a synthetic cannabinoid derived from HHCP, which is derived [...]
What is the cannabinoid Delta-9P?
In a previous article we talked about the recent alternative cannabinoid called THC-9P which because of its name might be difficult to pass the legislation in Europe as it was with Delta8-THC before. But scientists are constantly discovering new cannabinoids and the latest one that has made its appearance on the cannabis market is Delta-9P.
Is THCP 33 times stronger than THC?
We read a few years ago on youmaysayiamadreamer when research by a large inter-university team revealed a new component of cannabis ( which has over 400 constituents ) that may radically change the therapeutic potential of the plant. The Italian researchers formalized the discovery of the plant's components that go by the name THCP [...]
What is HHCP?
Recently in the Greek market we learned about the cannabinoid HHC and the various products that have been put on the shelves of cannabis shops with the above cannabinoid. Due to the interest of the world in these new cannabinoids derived from industrial hemp we have continuous developments in the field. HHCP is a hydrogenated version of THCP. Instead of [...]
What is Hexahydrocannabinol HHC?
HHC is a cannabinoid found in the flower, pollen and seeds of cannabis sativa L. in very low concentrations since forever. This means that humans have been consuming it for centuries. All this has been known since 1947 when Roger Adams managed to isolate it from the [...]
