The duration of a high from THCA, or tetrahydrocannabinolic acid, is somewhat complex because THCA itself is non-psychoactive. It needs to be converted into THC through decarboxylation (typically by heat) to produce psychoactive effects. Once converted to THC and consumed, the high can last anywhere from 1 to 3 hours when smoked or vaporized, and potentially longer if ingested through edibles.
