Cookies Gary Payton, or “Gary Payton,” is a rare, evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa). Peyton is a collaboration between Girl Scout Cookies and Powerzzz Genetics. Named after the NBA Hall of Famer basketball player, it blends The Y and Snowman strains, boasting a flavorful and potent profile. High THC levels and negligible CBD content provide an even-keeled experience suitable for beginners and connoisseurs alike.
Gary Payton cannabis buds are conical, tightly packed, and layered with a frost of crystalline trichomes. A forest to vivid green in color, these buds often display dark purple hues interspersed with burnt orange pistils.
This THCa weed strain flavor profile exudes a nutty, musky, and piney aroma with sweet berry undertones. With a mildly herbal exhale, this bud has a spicy yet sweet and savory diesel flavor. The aroma is similar but with a strong spice that persists long after the nugs have been burned away.

Gary Payton’s strain effects are quickly energizing and euphoric. As your mind soars, you’ll notice a boost in your energy level, greater focus, and, occasionally, a giggly demeanor. It’s beneficial for alleviating anxiety, stress, and headaches.
THC content typically hovers around 20%, reaching peaks of 25% in some batches.

The primary terpenes in this strain include:
Caryophyllene (pepper)
Limonene (citrus)
Pinene (pine)

THCa is a naturally occurring rare cannabinoid. It’s the “precursor” to THC, which means that THCa turns into THC when it’s decarboxylated or heated up.
Unfortunately, yes. THCa will show up on a drug test. It turns into THC when heated up, so your body metabolizes it the same way as THC.
If you’re worried about having to pass a drug test any time soon, it’s best to avoid THCa or any other psychoactive cannabinoid.
Sort of! THCa is like the “inactive” form of THC that’s only present before you smoke it. Once you heat it, it turns into THC.
Yes! THCa can be turned into THC through decarboxylation.
Does decarboxylation sound familiar? It’s the same thing as “decarbing,” which is crucial in making homemade edibles. It’s essentially heating the flower or concentrating up just a little bit to “activate” the THC and change the chemical structure to get you high when you eat it.

You got questions. We got answers
Yes. Our THCa products are hemp-derived and contain less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight, which makes them federally legal under the 2018 Farm Bill. Individual state laws vary, so always check your own state before ordering.
Yes. THCa is the non-intoxicating precursor to THC, but when you heat it by smoking or vaping it converts into THC. Expect effects similar to traditional cannabis, including euphoria, relaxation and appetite stimulation.
Orders ship from our US warehouse via USPS and typically arrive within 2 to 5 business days. You receive tracking as soon as your order leaves the facility, and shipping is free on orders over $100.
THCA flower (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) is cannabis that has high
levels of THCA, a natural compound found in raw cannabis buds.
When heated, THCA converts into THC, the main compound in cannabis that causes a psychoactive high.
With THCa Flower you get the cannabis experience which we all know and love shipped discreetly to your door.
Every batch is third-party lab tested for potency, pesticides, heavy metals and mold. We publish the certificates of analysis on our lab results page, so you can verify exactly what you are buying before it arrives.
Yes. THCa flower can be shipped within the United States because it is classified as legal hemp at under 0.3% Delta-9 THC. A small number of states have additional restrictions, which we follow at checkout.
You must be 21 or older to purchase. We verify age at checkout and require a valid government-issued ID, and an adult signature may be requested on delivery.
Yes, THCa flower can show up on a drug test. Most drug tests look for THC metabolites, and since THCa turns into THC when heated, it can result in a positive test. If you’re subject to drug testing, it’s best to avoid cannabis products that contain THCa.
