What Are Delta 8 THC Moon Rocks?
THC Moon Rocks are buds from cannabis plants that have been soaked in a CBD or THC distillate before being rolled in a cannabinoid-rich kief powder. In other words, Moon Rocks are made by combining two or more cannabis strains into a single product that has a potent and multi-faceted effect.
Delta 8 THC Moon Rocks are comparable to a delicious cake with a flavorful fruit filling and a creamy frosting. Each component is enjoyable, but they achieve something heavenly when combined.
Delta 8 THC Moon Rocks contain a triple dose of cannabis flower, resulting in potent physical and mental effects. Delta 8 Moon Rocks unwinds the body and stimulates the mind by combining the sedative effects of Bubba Kush, the uplifting effects of Diesel, and the therapeutic properties of CBG and CBD.

Delta 8 THC Moon Rocks Origins
While the true origins of Moon Rocks are unknown, it is clear that they originated in California in the 1970s to utilize leftover kief and increase the potency of low-quality cannabis.
Since then, the Delta 8 THC Moon Rocks production process has evolved into a more thoughtful process that doesn’t result in a Frankenstein’s monster of stitched-together buds. Today’s Moon Rocks contain higher concentrations of terpenes and minor cannabinoids like CBG and CBD to enhance the effects of the core strain and distillate.
The process for this product starts with an organic, greenhouse-grown Delta 8 Bubba Kush that has been hand-trimmed at peak maturity. Then, the buds are soaked in a distillate containing Delta 8 THC Diesel terpenes, which infuse into the plant while leaving a super sticky outer layer on the leaves.
Then, the distillate-coated Delta 8 nugs are rolled in a powdered kief of CBG and CBD flowers to create a rocky appearance and add a third source of cannabinoids to the product.
Delta 8 Moon Rocks Potency
Delta 8 Moon Rocks is designed for experienced cannabis users or those who require higher doses of THC to feel the ideal effects. It contains over 35 percent, the highest percentage of Delta 8 among all available products.
On the exhale, the kief-coated buds have a stickiness like pine sap and a great smell reminiscent of chocolate coffee with light citrus notes. Moon Rocks’ nugs have a darker green color and a voluminous bud structure when broken open. The flavor is savory, earthy, and fruity, tasting more like natural cannabis than hemp.
Delta 8 THC Moon Rocks produces intense body effects that kick in within five minutes of inhaling and take fifteen minutes to grow slowly, thanks to a core of indica strain Bubba Kush.
The nugs themselves are as potent as a Delta 8 THC flower, with the active ingredients making up more than half of the plant. Of course, the Moon Rocks hemp flower also has a high THC content. Delta 8 Moon Rocks typically contain around 50% THC. To understand this number better, the most popular dispensary strains contain between 17 and 28 percent THC.
Delta 8 vs. Delta 9
You can find both Delta 8 and Delta 9 THC in the Cannabis Sativa plant family. You can find them in both industrial hemp and marijuana plants. However, the amounts of these two cannabinoids are different in these two forms of the cannabis plant. Let’s review 3 of the most significant differences between Delta 8 and 9 THC.
Roots
The first distinction between Delta 8 and Delta 8 THC is the plant these cannabinoids are derived from. According to the law, a plant must contain less than 0.3 percent Delta 9 THC (by weight) to be categorized as hemp. Plants containing more than 0.3 percent Delta 9 THC are classified as marijuana plants.
This difference is significant because marijuana and hemp plants have different legal issues in many places like the United States. Note that marijuana is commonly grown indoors, while hemp plants are typically grown outdoors or in greenhouses. Hemp and marijuana are both absorbent plants, meaning they can uptake chemicals, pollutants, and solvents from the soil.
Effects on The Brain
Another difference between Delta 9 and Delta 8 THC is their effects on the nervous system. The receptors that Delta 8 THC binds to are the same ones that Delta 9 THC binds to. The boldest distinction between the two is that Delta 9 THC has a much stronger effect than Delta 8 THC.
Delta 8 THC also has psychoactive effects, but not the same intensity as Delta 9 THC. Scientists believe that this happens because Delta 8 THC does not bind to CB receptors for as long as Delta 9 THC.
For this reason, Delta 9 THC is classified as a psychoactive substance. As a result, Delta 9 THC has been classified as a Schedule I controlled substance. This classification applies to substances with high abuse potential and no FDA-approved medical use.
Dosing
The best part about cannabis dosing is that you can’t overdose on Delta 8 THC. However, as with any substance, you can overdo it. Regardless of which cannabinoid you choose, you should start with the lowest possible dose and increase it carefully to avoid adverse side effects.
Several factors, such as supplements or medications you’re already taking, genetic factors, and the number of enzymes you have, might determine the effects you’ll experience.
With this in mind, choose the THC product with the lowest potency and gradually increase the dose until the ideal effects are achieved.
There is no such thing as a lethal dose of cannabis, as you read above. There is a lethal dose for the Delta 9 THC variant, but it is incredibly high. For Delta 8, the amount would have to be even higher, as it is a less potent form of THC.
Best Way to Smoke Moon Rocks
Contrary to popular belief, Moon Rocks are best smoked in glass pipes with medium or large shafts.
When rolled into a joint or blunt, the distillate that binds the kief to the flower can cause problems and prevent it from staying lit. Some people get around this problem by mixing Moon Rocks with a generous amount of CBG, CBD, or even tobacco. It also burns better this way.
Handling Moon Rocks Nugs
It would be best to keep Moon Rocks nugs in a cool environment (but not refrigerated, as the distillate will be harder to cut). If you leave them under direct sunlight or other warm places, the distillate will begin to seep through the kief, making it stickier and much harder to break.
A razor is the best way to cut small pieces from your Moon Rocks. After you cut a small piece, you should chop it finely. When eating Moon Rocks, ensure adequate airflow under them and that they are not pressed into the glass piece.
Step 1: Separate each nug
The first step in smoking Moon Rocks is to grind a single nug into small pieces. Instead of using a grinder, you should do this with a knife or your hands. Moon Rocks are dusted with a pasty kief, so crushing the bud in a grinder is a big mess. It is also challenging to work with because of its juicy stickiness.
Step 2: Put a small amount of broken-up Moon Rocks in a bowl.
Take a small portion of a Moon Rocks nug and place it loosely in the bowl of a glass pipe or bong after cutting or breaking it open. Note: If you’re going to combine Moon Rocks with a CBG or CBD flower, make sure you put it in first and pack it loosely before adding a Moon Rocks chunk.
Step 3: Carefully Light Delta 8 Moon Rocks
Light Moon Rocks slowly with a soft flame (not a torch) and inhales. To avoid clogging a standard pipe, tilt it slightly away as you inhale.
THC Moon Rocks Effects
The Moon Rocks cannabis plant is quite potent. Those who have smoked it describe big, full, aromatic smoke clouds and a rich and pleasant kief flavor. As you know, THC is the primary psychoactive component of cannabis and is primarily responsible for the “high.” The effects of Moon Rocks are more pronounced than those of regular cannabis products because they contain significantly higher levels of THC.
Delta 8 Moon Rocks Side Effects
Many factors, including the specific strain and your tolerance, determine the severity of side effects. Someone who isn’t used to cannabis with a high THC content will experience these effects more than regular users. The intensity of the effects is also increased with large amounts.
Here are some of the most common Moon Rocks side effects:
- Dizziness
- A faster heartbeat
- Munchies
- Drowsiness
- Brain fog
- A dry mouth
- Dry and red eyes
Here are some general safety precautions to take when handling Moon Rocks:
Eat. Eat first, not only to keep the cravings at bay but also to mitigate the effects of high-THC weed and avoid nausea.
Hydrate. Drink plenty of water, keep fresh water on hand, and stay hydrated before, during, and after smoking to avoid a dry mouth.
Be aware of your surroundings. Pick a safe place where you can relax and unwind without worrying.
Go Slow. Begin slowly — very slowly. Suppose you’re new to Moon Rocks or high-THC strains. In that case, this is especially important because it can help reduce the intensity of the effect. Try to wait at least a minute or two between each inhale.
Delta 8 THC Moon Rocks Benefits
Like Delta 9, Delta8 is also psychoactive. However, you can think of Delta 8 as a milder version of the psychoactive effect. Delta-8 can produce euphoria and even relieve stress and anxiety. Cannabis connoisseurs report feelings of joy, heightened sensory perception, laughter, and a greater appreciation of life after consuming Delta 8.
Furthermore, because Delta-8 activates the endocannabinoid system, it acts as a natural anxiety reliever. (Note: the endocannabinoid system centrally regulates anxiety and fear.) Other benefits of this substance include:
Neuroprotection
The stimulating effects of Delta 8 THC on the brain are one of the main reasons scientists have only recently begun exploring its benefits.
The neuroprotective properties of Delta 8 THC are remarkable. It regulates the amounts of potassium and calcium in the central nervous system and inhibits the release of adenylyl cyclase. All of these effects have the potential to improve users’ brain health.
Delta 8 can also protect the brain from long-term cognitive damage in the event of hypoxia injury. This substance can also improve the brain’s cognitive functions by promoting the formation of new neurons (neurogenesis).
Last but not least, Delta 8 boosts choline and acetylcholine levels, which can help treat neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s.
Promoting a Good Night’s Sleep
Delta 8 alters the natural rhythm of the mind and body. It can bind twice to endocannabinoid receptors, which could help calm the processes. These include irregular mental activity, restless breathing, and rapid heartbeat.
Boosting Appetite
Delta 8 THC appears to increase appetite more effectively than Delta 9 THC, which has more potent cognitive effects. According to scientists, Delta 8 THC stimulates appetite twice as much as Delta 9 THC. This is also why many enthusiasts use Delta 8 as a dietary supplement.
If you like to use cannabis to get a craving, Delta 8 THC is a good choice because a single dose can significantly increase your appetite. These properties make Delta 8 THC a promising treatment option for people suffering from appetite loss or eating disorders.
Relaxation
Scientists have found that Delta 8 THC has anxiolytic properties. It can help you relax and relieve stress without increasing anxiety-like Delta 9 THC does for reactive users.
On the one hand, Delta 8 THC binds to CB1 receptors in the brain, which are essential for controlling the psychoactive effects of cannabis. On the other hand, Delta 8 has a lower affinity for CB1 receptors, which explains its ability to reduce anxiety and stress.
Like CBD and other cannabinoids, Delta 8 THC can help your body relax. However, it does not make you sleepy, so you can go about your daily activities and enjoy them to the fullest.
Delta 8 THC: Risks And Safety
Delta 8 undergoes a series of tests in the laboratory to ensure that it is a safe product. Since the release of Delta 8, we have noticed that most labs do not test for some of the common substances associated with Delta 8. This gives consumers a false sense of security when they see a “Passed” lab test.
Since credible producers care about their customers’ safety, they ensure that everything used to make the product is lab-tested to ensure that no harmful residues are present. At Moonrock, we, too, value the safety of those who entrust us with their business and medical needs.
