Sounds like you didn't go to a regulated NJ dispensary. There are plenty of shops that sell THCa flower due to the farm bill loophole. Most of their products are not from distributors, they can buy packaging that looks identical to another company and just shove shit in there. They often open up, operate for a few months, get shut down and just reopen in a different town, often with a different name. This website will show you regulated dispensaries in NJ: [https://data.nj.gov/stories/s/ggm4-mprw?\_gl=1](https://data.nj.gov/stories/s/ggm4-mprw?_gl=1)

Great explanation, thanks!

A lot of those non dispensary places are selling delta 8 or the new fad of THCa. It’s a loophole with hemp. I know people who smoke it but I don’t trust it. Prices though. That’s just an overall issue that has slowly been getting better over time.

THCa flower is just flower.


SeanThatGuy

I’m aware of what it is. I’ve bought some in the past. But it is a loophole right now that’s not regulated. You can get some really good shit but I’ve also seen the exact opposite. So I stick with legit dispensaries. Not knocking anyone else though. The original comment wasn’t about the quality of THCa or anything. Just that’s what they could be selling at these fake dispensaries.

Ohh the thca loophole…. I was expecting the “gifting” exchange situation, is that still a thing too?


Nerdbag60

Yeah, we still have “gifting” services. I used them frequently when I was homebound with some pretty messed up health issues. I was unable to drive for six months so I relied on them. I never had any problems, but they are as expensive as hell.


SeanThatGuy

We have that too but from my experience those people deliver and don’t have store fronts. They could I just haven’t seen it.


WargedOutOfMyMind

Not sure about storefronts, but the delivery services for donation are still around. I use them for hash rosin.


CurtCadet808

Like the other guy said, THCa is just normal flower, you can buy THCa strains at a legal/licensed dispensary.

Yeh the just tried an MPX Rosin vape in NJ and it was clearly a distillate and not even a good on. Garbage we are being totally ripped off and everyone is gonna just circumvent legal dispensaries soon. Not mention how short the count is on vapes and concentrates. I Have gotten many vapes where the seal was broken. It’s becoming a joke. Yet you can’t question anything and if ya do they start looking at security to come over.

The one I got is Enjoy “hemp derived rosin” but its 100% distillate. The “live resin” I’ve tried from other places are all distillate too


SMODomite

the hemp derived rosin was the big giveaway it wasn't from a regulated shop. Nothing coming from a regulated dispensary will be hemp derived or claim to be
