Let’s look at the background of THCV first so that we may learn more facts about each strain.

THCV: What is it?

Tetrahydrocannabivarin or THCV, in short, is a counterpart of the most popular cannabinoid THC. The THC is classified under the group of pentyl, while THCV is under the propyl group. Both cannabinoids have different compositions, structures, and effects, which makes them unique from one another.

THCV: Does it provide a euphoric high?

As discussed from previous articles, the THC targets the CB1 receptor, which provides the euphoric effects. When taken in low doses, THCV barely affects both CB1 and CB2 receptors, which means it does not make you high, again, in low doses. But if taken heavily, it already causes psychoactive results.
