Delta-8 THC Gummies

Delta-8 THC gummies, also known as D8 gummies or Delta-8 gummies, are soft, chewy edibles made with Delta-8 THC distillate. While other brands spray Delta-8 distillate onto pre-made gummies, our edibles are crafted by infusing Delta-8 distillate into the gummy mixture, guaranteeing consistent milligrams of D8 and enhanced flavor in every bite.

Further, our Delta-8 gummies are made using premium Delta-8 THC derived from hemp, which is federally legal under the 2018 Farm Bill. Like our other hemp-derived products, these edibles are third-party tested. Each bag of our Delta-8 THC gummies comes with a QR code for easy linking to its Certificate of Analysis, or COA. You can rest assured that all of our gummies are of the highest quality and safety, and comply with federal regulations.

Delta-8 is a cannabinoid, a type of compound found in cannabis plants (i.e., marijuana and hemp). The concentration of Delta-8 in a cannabis plant is quite insignificant compared to the more abundant cannabinoids, Delta-9 THC and CBD, so it is categorized as a minor cannabinoid.

Although direct extraction from the hemp plant is possible, Delta-8 THC is mostly synthesized from natural, hemp-derived CBD so it can be added to other products in concentrations that will be effective.

The effects of Delta-8 gummies are the same as that of Delta-8 THC in general. As a psychoactive cannabinoid, Delta-8 THC will produce a high, but its binding affinity for the receptors in the body's endocannabinoid system is weaker than the more prominent Delta-9 THC. So, its effects are usually less intense. 

According to anecdotal reports, the effects of Delta-8 gummies include:

One of the main things to consider is that the effects of Delta-8 THC vary from person to person. Another factor to take into account is that gummies are edibles. When any cannabinoid (whether CBD, Delta-8 or Delta-9) is eaten, the effects can have a slower onset. This means they will take a bit longer to "kick in" than, say, smoking or vaping.

However, these effects may feel more intense and last longer than other consumption methods. If you are trying Delta-8 gummies, or any cannabis products, for the first time, it's best to start with a small amount. You can always "build-up," but you can never "go back."  

To reiterate, with Delta-8 edibles, it can take some time to start feeling the effects. You can also expect them to last for quite a while after taking them. Due to this, we caution you not to drive or operate machinery after consuming Delta-8 gummies.

There's no universal right or wrong amount when taking Delta-8 gummies or any hemp-derived THC gummy. Delta-8 and cannabinoids, in general, affect everyone a bit differently. The best way to find your "sweet spot" with Delta-8 gummies is by starting with small amounts (less than a whole gummy), being patient, and deciding if taking more will help you reach the desired effects. The onset of effects is much longer for edibles, so again, patience is key.

Before you order Delta-8 gummies, you should know how to gauge brands for quality. If you're looking for top-shelf Delta 8 gummies or even Delta-8 sour gummies, there are several factors you'll need to consider outside how much the Delta 8 gummies cost. The first thing to consider before finding edible THC gummies from hemp is finding a certificate of analysis, most commonly known as just a COA.

A COA is simply a lab report that provides the customer with findings on the product's cannabinoid content and the presence of contaminants. Quality manufacturers of D8 gummies will give potential customers access to their COAs.

Another factor you will need to consider is social proof. Are there reviews featured on the vendor/manufacturer's site? Can you find outside reviews on places such as YouTube and other sources? Have any online publications reviewed their products?

Our Delta-8 gummies range from $30-$60 per 10-count bag. With any premium cannabis product, the price may deter you, but if you're looking for quality and consistency, the extra few bucks will be worth it. Buying cheap hemp products can lead to an unpredictable experience due to inconsistent potency and shoddy production practices. The best quality you’re going to get is with Delta-8 THC-infused gummies since they are more consistent in cannabinoid content and taste better.

Quality will always justify the cost of THC gummies, and it’s always worth it to spend more for higher quality to make sure you get your money’s worth. 

It’s always a wise choice to do your homework before you order THC gummies with Delta-8 in them.

Here's the neat part about Delta-8...it is THC. It's not "like THC." Delta-8 THC, or, Δ-8-Tetrahydrocannabinol, is one of the many types of THC that can be found in cannabis. The most well-known form of THC is Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, or "Delta-9 THC." Our Delta-8 gummies contain a neglible amount, if any, of Delta-9 THC. Their THC content is strictly Delta-8 THC. So when considering a 25-milligram Delta-8 gummy, there is 25 milligrams of Delta-8 THC. 

There is no universal standard for the amount of Delta-8 in Delta-8 gummies or any gummies with THC. It can widely vary. For Hometown Hero, our "standard" is our 25mg Delta 8 gummies. However, we also have our Delta-8 Max Gummies with 100mg of Delta-8, making them our strongest Delta-8 gummies.

Generally, Delta 8 gummies' "strength" will rely on how many milligrams of Delta-8 are in them. And if it's your first time trying Delta-8-infused gummies, you're going to want to go with lower milligram options and start with a small piece (not the whole gummy).

The effects of Delta-8 gummies can take as little as 45 minutes to as long as an hour to kick in. For that reason, many first-time consumers ask themselves, "Do Delta-8 gummies work?"

But be patient. Edibles have a longer onset of effects than other methods such as smoking, vaping, or taking tincture drops under your tongue. Too many factors come into play when it comes to the onset of effects (such as the last time you ate). But know that as a general rule of thumb, Delta-8 gummies take much longer to "kick in" than inhalables or tinctures.

There's no sure way of telling how long the delivery of effects for even the strongest Delta-8 gummies will last. Delta 8 gummies' effects last longer than Delta-8 flower or vapes. The general rule of thumb is that with edibles, make sure your schedule is clear because the duration is pretty long compared to other mediums of enjoying Delta-8.

Delta-8 gummies' strength will primarily depend on how many milligrams of Delta-8 THC are in the gummy (THC content). However, strength is also a subjective matter: what you consider "strong" is influenced by your unique tolerance to THC and your experience consuming cannabinoids.

For example, if you've taken Delta-9 THC gummies in the past, Delta-8 might feel less intense (when comparing equal amounts, say 25mg Delta-9 vs. 25mg Delta-8). On the flip side, if you're unfamiliar with how your body processes THC, make sure you start with small amounts and be patient.

As of this writing, Delta-8 is federally legal, and since airspace is within the federal government's jurisdiction, bringing Delta-8 on a plane is federally legal as well. The caveat is state legality. If Delta-8 is legal where you are and where you're flying to, you are most likely in the clear. But, because company policies vary, you should ask your airline if they allow people to bring Delta-8 products onboard. Besides that, please make sure you follow TSA compliance guidelines when bringing Delta-8 (or anything else) on a plane.

Delta-8 THC poses very little threat of physical harm. You may feel overwhelmed if you take too much (which is not fun), but you can avoid that by following the low-and-slow approach.

Before trying Delta-8 products, you should consult your physician. And you should never drive or operate machinery after having gummies or anything with Delta-8 in it.

Women who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or trying to become pregnant should avoid Delta-8 products. And finally, if you have any cannabis allergies, you should also avoid eating Delta-8 gummies or any product that contains cannabinoids. But remember, consult your physician before trying Delta-8.
