THC-O is much more potent than other types of THC. It's approximately three times more potent than regular delta-9 THC. THC-O has been called the “psychedelic cannabinoid” or even “the spiritual cannabinoid” for its almost hallucinatory effects. Very little scientific research has been done on the effects and dangers of using THC-O.
Some media outlets have reported that THC-O can be up to 3 times more potent than THC. According to consumers' experiences, this compound is capable of producing more psychedelic effects than other cannabinoids. It has also been said that these effects tend to have a more spiritual tone. THCP is more potent than THC-O due to the length of its alkyl side chain.
THCP has a seven-link alkyl side chain, while THC-O has a five-link alkyl side chain. Based on user experiences, the effects of THC-O appear to be stronger than those of other cannabinoids, such as marijuana. It has also been said that the side effects of THC-O tend to have a more spiritual tone, which can make them even more distressing. THC acetate ester (THC-O) and tetrahydrocannabiphorol (THCP) are chemical compounds and variants of delta-9 THC.
But is THC-O stronger than THC? Although research is limited, considering the substances from which it is derived, THC-O is expected to be three times more potent than THC.
