What is THC?
THC (delta-9 Tetrahydrocannabinol) is the most active chemical in marijuana and is known for its psychoactive effects causing a euphoric high. THC can be found in the resin released by glands of the marijuana plant. How THC works is it binds to cannabinoid receptors in the brain and to the central nervous system producing psychoactive effects.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Come take a look at all the Flowers we have in stock with THC in them.” color=”primary” link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Fggrams.flywheelsites.com%2Fproduct-category%2Fflowers%2F|||”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”7970″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]
