Is HHC the new THC?

     HHC is a cannabinoid that not many people have heard about. But, if you're a cannabis user, it's important to know what HHC can do for you. Whether you want more focus or pain relief, HHC may have the potential to help.       HHC stands for hexahydrocannabinol and is one of the lesser known cannabinoids found in cannabis plants such as Cannabis indica and Cannabis sativa L., which are commonly used by medical marijuana patients because of their high concentrations of THC (the psychoactive cannabinoid). There is research being done on whether or not HHC provides the same benefits as THC, and so far the results seem promising. The potential benefits of HHC appear to be very similar to those of THC, including: inflammation reduction chronic pain management anxiety relief nausea relief improved sleep      HHC is a hydrogenated cannabinoid that is much more resistant to heat and UV radiation, and also has a substantially longer shelf-life in comparison to THC, which may make it

Hemp Flower: Calm Your Anxiety While Staying Productive, An Entrepreneurs Best Friend

     Most cannabis consumers nowadays consider CBD/hemp flower to be "decaf" weed, but that doesn't really do it justice. I personally consume THC just about every night, and it certainly has its benefits, but I also use hemp flower just about every day. One of the reasons I originally started smoking marijuana was to help with my anxiety and keep me level-headed throughout the day, as I tend to get overwhelmed fairly easily and I prefer not to use prescription drugs unless I absolutely need to.       The only issue is, when I smoke marijuana, not only does it help calm my mind, it also gets me super stoned, which makes it difficult to concentrate or retain information. With the type of work I do as an entrepreneur, I need to be able to keep my anxiety to a minimum while also remaining clear-minded enough to focus on complex tasks like running my business, so, being high throughout the day doesn't work too well for me. Unfortunately, for much of my life I've just

Can CBD Help You Manage Chronic Pain?

Cannabidiol (CBD) is a cannabinoid derived from hemp cannabis plants which is said to potentially provide relief from a myriad of issues and benefit overall health.  It may not be too much of a stretch to say that if you've been dealing with chronic pain, you've probably at some point weighed the option of using CBD as a natural pain reliever. So what exactly is CBD, and how does it work? CBD stands for cannabidiol; this cannabinoid compound occurs naturally in the cannabis plant. Unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), CBD has no psychoactive effects on users - which means that you won't get high or stoned from ingesting CBD products like hemp oil drops but you still get the physical benefits of the cannabinoid. What does the research say about how well it works? The evidence is promising and suggests that among those who take it for chronic pain, CBD could reduce a myriad of related symptoms. CBD may have the ability to reduce nausea, numb pain, improve sleep quality and les

What do the Terpenes in Cannabis do?

     Most people tend to think that the only compound that matters in cannabis is THC, but studies have shown over and over again that the cannabinoids in the plant provide a wide range of benefits that are equally important, if not even more so. Because of this, more and more people have been learning about the benefits of CBD and the market for it has exploded in recent years.       Now, researchers and consumers alike are looking deeper than ever into all the ways that cannabis can provide relief from more specific issues like gastric reflux, epilepsy, psychosis, inflammation, etc., and that's how we ended up focusing on something called "terpenes".       Terpenes are molecules that naturally occur in a variety of plants like herbs, citrus rinds, pine needles, and hops. There are more than a hundred known terpenes that can be found in cannabis, and each one can alter the taste and smell of the plant, as well as the way it affects the human body.  Here are a few of th

Hemp Boutique Has the Best Federally Legal Cannabis on the Gulf Coast

    Hemp Boutique is home to the finest federally legal cannabis on the Gulf Coast, and has been proudly helping people find relaxation and relief since 2018 right in Biloxi, Mississippi. How do they have federally legal cannabis if marijuana is illegal? Well, it's not marijuana flower, its hemp/CBD flower, which contains less than 0.3% THC (the psychoactive compound in marijuana that gets you high) so its fully legal.       That doesn't mean you don't feel anything, though. Not by any means. In fact, a huge part of what you feel when smoking cannabis is from the terpenes and other cannabinoids in the flower, not just the THC. Not to mention, all these other compounds in the flower provide a huge host of health benefits that you can't get from THC alone. We had a customer stop by and pick up a pre-roll of our Apple Strudel (a hybrid, indica-dominant strain of hemp flower) and a little while after he left, he called the store saying he had just sat at the stop sign wa

The Most Efficient Way to Inhale Cannabis, EVER - Now in Biloxi, Mississippi!

          Have you ever heard of a thermal extraction device? No? Well, it's the absolute most efficient way to inhale cannabis, ever.       With the DynaVap devices we carry at Hemp Boutique, there's no combustion, no smoke, and no battery. Only vapor. It's like a vaporizer, except you don't need to worry about charging it or plugging it in. In fact, it's not electronic, it's entirely mechanical, and made of either stainless steel or titanium, depending on the model. It's about the size and shape of a cigarette, and you only put one tenth of a gram of flower into it. The crazy part is, it also delivers a much more satisfying cloud of vapor than any electronic herb vaporizer we've ever seen. The way it works is with a mechanism in the cap that "clicks" as soon as it's reached the optimal temperature for extracting all the good stuff from cannabis.       You can heat it using one of the DynaVap heaters or by using a small torch lighter.

CBD May Ease Your Social Anxiety

     We've all felt a bit anxious at one time or another, but for some people, it's a whole lot more than that.       A lot of people have trouble enjoying social interactions with people because of their anxiety constantly ruining their experience, disrupting their thought patterns, and messing with their emotions. There have been prescription medications available for anxiety for quite awhile now, the only problem is they come with a whole host of negative side-effects. One of the major ones is dependence, which can cause someone to require anti-anxiety medication for their entire lives just to feel normal.       Thankfully, the National Institute on Drug Abuse has stated that CBD may help alleviate multiple different forms of anxiety, including social anxiety, PTSD, and anxiety-induced insomnia. Studies have shown that CBD may be a therapeutic alternative to medications and treatments and may provide relief without all the unwanted side-effects.       If you suffer from so
