What is Delta-8 THC? Delta-8 THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is a minor cannabinoid that occurs naturally in cannabis plants.

Delta-8 users find the high to be incredibly relaxing, often finding themselves clear-headed and able to take on tasks with ease.

The onset time for Delta-8 to take effect can vary, depending on the delivery method you choose.
