THCA (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) itself does not produce psychoactive effects, meaning it won't get you high. However, when THCA is heated, it undergoes decarboxylation and converts to THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), which is the compound responsible for the high. The percentage of THCA in a cannabis product indicates its potential to convert to THC upon heating, but the actual effect depends on the amount of THCA converted and the individual’s tolerance and metabolism.
