THCP – THE NEW KING AMONG CANNABINOIDS
Oct
In this article, interested parties will find all the important details about purchasing special cannabinoid-enriched flowers. Industrial hemp flowers are often treated with a special distillate to provide a more intense experience. This phytocannabinoid, naturally occurring in the cannabis plant, is characterized by an effect that is stronger than the well-known THC. Although it is naturally present in cannabis, it is often produced synthetically and often offered in combination with CBD-rich products.
This new variant, also known by an abbreviated name, represents a significant addition to the cannabinoid world. With its extraordinary potency, it surpasses conventional THC, making it a particular highlight in cannabinoid research. Its popularity is growing steadily and it is increasingly considered a kind of “king of cannabinoids”.
Many are curious about the experiences and effects associated with this cannabinoid. This article sheds light on its properties, the available product forms such as vapes and flowers, and the legal aspects. Read on to find out more!
WHAT IS THCP?
THCp is one of around 150 known phytocannabinoids that occur naturally in cannabis and mediate effects similar to the body’s own endocannabinoids.
In 2019, THCp was discovered for the first time in a study and isolated in the laboratory. The scientists named their discovery (-)-trans-Δ9-tetrahydrocannabiphorol (Δ9-THCP) and this discovery attracted attention as THC-p is the only known phytocannabinoid with a side chain of 7 carbon atoms!
ORIGIN OF THE CANNABINOID FROM THE HEMP PLANT
Although this particular cannabinoid occurs naturally in small amounts in some cannabis strains and could explain differences in their effects, even with the same THC content, there is uncertainty as to whether the product available in stores comes directly from the hemp plant.
This is because it occurs in such small quantities that a significant amount of plant material would be required to extract a small amount of the active ingredient. It is therefore more likely that the product is produced semi-synthetically by chemically converting CBD or THC in the laboratory.
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THCP SIDE EFFECTS
THCP is known for its powerful effects – a real game-changer in the cannabis game. But as with anything that’s really good, there are a few things to watch out for. THCP can have a stronger effect on you than the THC you may be used to. This also means that the side effects can be a little more intense. Here’s the deal:
- Anxiety and paranoia: Some people feel super relaxed, but others get more stressed and paranoid, especially if you overdo it.
- Dryness Deluxe: The classic cottonmouth and dry eyes are also in play with THCP.
- Slight spinning: A bit of dizziness can occur, so better not practice juggling right after consumption.
- Time travel: Time can stretch a bit – so watching movies becomes even more epic.
- Memory lapses: Concentration and short-term memory can go down the drain, so perhaps don’t use it for a learning marathon.
Sounds like a lot? Don’t panic! Just start low and slowly go higher to see how you react. Quality counts – get your THCP from people you trust so you know what’s what. And as always: listen to your body and make yourself comfortable. If you have any questions or uncertainties, always stay cool and talk to someone who knows. Stay safe, stay relaxed!

CANNABINOID RECEPTORS AND THEIR BINDING PROPENSITY
You may already know that the effects of THC are mainly mediated through the activation of CB1 receptors. Researchers have found that the binding propensity of THC to CB1 receptors can be increased by extending its hydrocarbon chain (also known as the alkyl chain).
This knowledge has been used to synthesize highly potent compounds that mimic and even surpass the effects of THC.
Scientists have long had the ability to extend the alkyl chains of synthetic cannabinoids (known as cannabinoid mimetics) at will. However, naturally occurring cannabinoids did not normally have side chains longer than 5 carbon atoms. This only changed with the discovery of THCp, which has a side chain of a whopping 7 carbon atoms!
THE BINDING AFFINITY FOR THIS CANNABINOID
In a study, the binding tendency of (-)-trans-Δ9-THCP was analyzed in comparison to other cannabinoids. The result shows that THCp acts up to ten times more strongly on CB2 receptors than THC, THCb and THCv.
When it comes to the psychoactive effect, THCp is particularly effective at the CB1 receptors:
- 63 times more potent than THCV
- 33 times more effective than THC
- 13 times more effective than THCB
Such high and even higher values have so far only been found with synthetic cannabinoids.
OPPORTUNITIES & POTENTIAL
Tetrahydrocannabiphorol opens up new perspectives for our understanding of the mode of action of THC and its application in medical cannabis research. It questions whether it is not only THC that is responsible for the psychoactive effect of cannabis flowers and other products. In therapeutic use, patients often have different reactions to different cannabis varieties, even if the THC dose remains the same.
It seems necessary to consider other cannabinoids besides THC and CBD in medicinal cannabis extracts and flowers. This could be crucial for a more reliable supply of medicinal cannabis to patients. The discovery of tetrahydrocannabiphorol, which shows similar or even stronger efficacy than THC even in small amounts, could prove particularly beneficial in a medical context
