Whether you want something to wind down at night, a daytime smoke that keeps you moving, or a top shelf THCA flower that tastes like candy, there is a new strain here for you. Below you will find what makes each one different, a quick comparison table, and tips for choosing the right THCA flower for your routine.
The 12 new strains: Strawberry Skrilla, Runtz Carlton, Polar Pop, Ice Cream Candy, Grape Pie, Grandpa's Hash, Lemon Cherry Cookies, Puffinz, Lung Buster, Porto Leche, Champu, and Purple Skywalker.
What Is THCA Flower?
THCA (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) is the raw, acidic form of THC found in fresh cannabis and hemp plants. On its own, THCA is non-intoxicating. When you heat it by smoking, vaping, or baking, it goes through decarboxylation and converts into delta-9 THC.
THCA hemp flower is grown to be rich in THCA while testing at or below 0.3% delta-9 THC on a dry-weight basis, the standard used for hemp under the 2018 Farm Bill. That is why the strain names, terpene profiles, and bag appeal look and smell just like classic dispensary flower.
"Exotic" THCA flower usually means newer, boutique genetics with standout flavor, dense frosty buds, and loud aroma, as opposed to older, widely available strains. Every strain in this drop falls into that top shelf category.

How to Choose the Best THCA Flower for You
The best THCA flower is the one that matches your goal and your experience level. Start with these four questions.
- What time of day? For daytime, look at sativa-leaning THCA flower like Polar Pop and Champu, or the energizing hybrid Puffinz. For nighttime, reach for indica THCA flower like Grandpa's Hash, Lung Buster, or Porto Leche.
- What flavors do you like? Fruit lovers should try Strawberry Skrilla or Runtz Carlton. Dessert fans will like Porto Leche, Ice Cream Candy, Grape Pie, and Lemon Cherry Cookies. Gas fans should go for Lung Buster, and old-school fans for Grandpa's Hash.
- How experienced are you? Newer smokers do well with balanced hybrids like Runtz Carlton or Purple Skywalker. Experienced smokers can explore heavy hitters like Lung Buster.
- Want something rare? Champu's incense profile is unlike anything else in the collection.
Terpenes: The Secret Behind Flavor and Feel
Terpenes are the aromatic compounds that give each strain its smell and taste, and they help shape how a strain feels. Common ones in this drop include:
- Myrcene: earthy and musky, often found in relaxing indica strains.
- Limonene: bright citrus, associated with upbeat, mood-lifting strains.
- Caryophyllene: peppery and spicy, common in dessert and gas strains like Porto Leche.
- Pinene: fresh pine, often linked with clear-headed effects.
Why Lab Testing Matters
Every strain should come with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) from an independent third-party lab. A COA confirms the delta-9 THC level stays within the hemp limit and shows THCA potency, terpenes, and screens for contaminants like pesticides, heavy metals, and mold. Check the COA on each product page before you buy.
How to Store THCA Flower
Keep your flower in an airtight glass jar in a cool, dark place, away from heat and sunlight. Heat and light slowly convert THCA and degrade terpenes, so good storage keeps your flower fresh, flavorful, and potent longer.
Is THCA Flower Legal?
Today, THCA hemp flower is sold under the 2018 Farm Bill, which defines hemp as cannabis containing no more than 0.3% delta-9 THC on a dry-weight basis. That federal definition is changing: under a law signed in November 2025 and later delayed by Congress, hemp will be measured by total THC (including THCA) starting December 11, 2026, which high-THCA flower does not meet.
State laws also vary, and many states already restrict THCA flower. Check your local laws before ordering, and see our shipping policy for the states we ship to.
