THC > THCA

Hey guys, I have a question that is completely out of curiosity. I understand the process of decarbing cannabis to convert the THCA to THC, however, is there a process that can convert THC back to THCA? If so, how?

i doubt it can be converted back
related story: i eat edibles all the time (coconut oil extract) a month ago ii made a batch but didnt really heat it up much.... the edibles came out weak and gave more of a body high then heady. I ate the whole edible batch of cookies in 2 weeks.
This last batch i put the coconut oil to med and it burnt accidentally. made the whole house reek of coconut bubba kush... well i didnt realize that by doing this it was gonna make them insanely more potent then the last batch. by eating 2 cookies i was FUCKED!!!
needless to say i was sooooo high as fuck on friday!!! no tolerance and those kush cookies made me a paranoid as fuck till i passed out sitting up. lol
wow heating it up makes a HUGE difference
the weaker batch is more body high and relaxed.
but that burnt oil batch was straight up trippy. even had closed eye visuals off it!

Haha, yeah I've made edibles a few times but they have always been somewhat disappointing.. since I've actually started researching the subject I'm going to try a recipe with coconut oil (seems the be the best fat to use) and properly decarbed bud.

Im sorry but the best strain is without a doubt northern lights haze. I like that alien OG romulan OG and of course golden goat (and sometimes flow but flow is not to good). Best wax is from northern lights haze though so goddam heady it feels like you're floating.

But hey.. I did "smoke the pole" haha... it was..."heady"
Never had northern lights haze but I wish the original northern lights was just stronger. I love the way it grows. the parameters... looks so sexy. Really neat smell. solid. fast. clones easily... not that great on the pipe tho... kind of middle of the road... im pretty sure the original "bc bud" hydro from the 90's out of canada was northern lights.

Says the fool who didn't even know you need to pre cook your bud in the oven to get the edibles right. Tin foil and a oven at 150 will do wonders for your cookies, I run wax and you wanna act all cool with your stupid bubba kush (more like regie). Im not taking crap from someone who has no idea how to make decent edibles.

He's sayin he didnt do it that time but im sure he knows about it... and dude, insulting the bubba kush is just futile...
Fun story here about that... Speaking of both these strains... every night I bring northern lights intentionally to work. its mellow and kind. not too strong... I step out and just take a few rips (I run power equipment indoors) ... So one night I bring the bubba kush accidentally. I work nights so its dark out.. 4 rips of the bubs and I find myself later in a sky jack lift completely retarded fucked up getting sweaty palms, feet etc . vertigo on the ceiling... all dizzy & shit.. I kept thinking.. "how did the NL completely retard me?" until I saw it again in the morning light...

The northern lights is old though the strain I get is northern lights haze its a different stain. The THC on the bud looks crazy it's some really potent stuff. The first time I had it I got so high I thought I pissed myself from the insane body high I had.
And im not insulting bubba kush im insulting the wannabe gangsta smoking regie thinking its bubba kush.

I have a (untested) theory that eating some raw cannabis along with some potent edibles will greatly reduce the paranoia (the cbd from raw cannabis should counteract the unwanted anxiety from the THC). One way to find out

i can try this on the weekend (i got tons of edibles here)
My first post in this thread only was ment to prove that different temps greatly differ in the buzz. Same way vaping at different temps give different high's
when i vape i prefer lower temps for a less heady, and more relaxing buzz

Awesome let me know how it goes! Im not sure how much raw bud you would need to consume, i was thinking of starting off with a 1:1 raw:bud in edibles ratio, although I've read that most bud going around these days is high thc low cbd (growers trying to get a 'potent' product). I'm also thinking of playing around with eating raw bud, waiting like half an hour then smoking a ton and seeing how it affects the high.

The problem is to much THC raw bud will make you feel sick. Try mixing some cbd oil with the cookies it should make it more mellow.

How would you get cbd oil without extracting thc along with it? Do you just not use any heat and extract cbd+thca?

Ya I think its legal almost everywhere because there's no THC in it so its not scheduled. I see ads for it on high times every time I go on. Try buying some and mix it in next time it could make it a lot better.

You can extract CBD, but it requires sophisticated equipment that isn't easily accessible to most casual enthusiasts.
To answer your original question it is not possible to convert THCA back to THC realistically. In any case THC would be the desired product since its actually bio-active whereas THCA will not cross the blood brain barrier and bind to CB1 receptors in the central nervous system.
Adding the carboxyl group back onto the molecule would be very difficult and not worth the effort.
