What Is Delta 8?

Delta-8 tetrahydrocannabinol, also known as Delta-8 THC or Δ8-THC, is a psychoactive substance that occurs naturally in hemp and cannabis plants. In recent years, it has become popular as a cannabis alternative and has the benefit of being recognized as federally legal (more on that later).

The popularity and ample supply of Δ8-THC following legalization led to many innovations. Now all of the following Δ8-THC products can be sold in stores:

Delta 8 Edibles

Delta-8 is reported by many users to have a strong and lasting effect when digested. That may be why so many edible products for Δ8-THC sell well. Naturally, we carry popular options like Delta-8 gummies. 

You’ll be able to keep gourmand customers satisfied with—

• • Rice treats
  • Caramels
  • Chocolates
  • Peanut butter nuggets
  • Taffy
  • Chewy fruit candies

Just the products that are available right now offer your customers a ton of variety, but this market is still growing fast. Watch for more new edible  Δ8-THC options to drop soon. 

Delta 8 Vapes

Vapes are among the best-selling Δ8 products because customers like the convenience and the rapid onset of effects. You can stock cartridges that contain delta-8 distillate or live resin and are ready to attach to a compatible battery. 

Customers may also appreciate it if you carry disposable vapes. These products include the vape cartridge and the battery so that customers can turn them on and use them right out of the box. 

Both the cartridges and vapes come in several sizes and pleasing flavors. 

Delta 8 Tinctures

Δ8 tinctures suspend the active ingredient in oil. The bottle cap of the tincture includes a dropper so that your customers can apply perfectly-sized portions to wherever they want. 

Tinctures may be used by your customers to achieve rapid effects (when dropped under the tongue), to mix with food and drink, or to combine with other cannabinoids to achieve a full-spectrum effect from consumption. 

Delta 8 Flower/Smoke

Delta 8 flower refers to hemp flowers sold with high levels of Δ8. These concentrations don’t occur naturally, so Δ8 flower is often a CBD flower treated with Δ8 distillate.

Flowers can be smoked or vaporized in a herb vaporizer. It can also be prepared for edibles. These products are sometimes sold as pre-rolls, with the flower material already ground and rolled into a joint. 

Some enhanced flower products, such as moon rocks, are also available. These are nuggets covered in distillate and kief, and are popular with customers that want the strongest experience. 

Customers may appreciate that these flowers can be sold with terpene profiles that make them smell and taste similar to traditional cannabis indica and sativa flowers. Hemp flowers have been bred to resemble strains like sour diesel and northern lights.

Delta 8 Concentrates

Δ8 concentrates are named for the high concentrations of the active ingredient. They are often used as food additives, though the more solid ones may be used in dab rigs and other devices for smoking concentrates.

Any condensed form of Δ8 may be considered a concentrate, including—

• • Crumble: This is a concentrate that has been distilled down to a solid. As the name suggests, it is crumbly and easily separated for closely controlled doses. 
  • Shatter: This is an extremely concentrated product that may be composed of 75% pure Δ8 or more. They need to be kept in cool environments such as freezers to stay fresh.
  • Softgels: These are concentrates contained in soft gel tablets so that they can be swallowed quickly without any unpleasant taste. They tend to behave similarly to edibles.
