1. What is THC Calculation?

THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) calculation estimates the total THC content in cannabis products. It helps users understand the potency of their cannabis and make informed decisions about consumption.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the THC formula:

Where:

• \( dose \) — Amount of cannabis in grams
• \( potency \) — THC percentage of the cannabis
• \( 10 \) — Conversion factor (1g = 1000mg, 1% = 0.01)

Explanation: The formula converts the percentage to a decimal and calculates the total THC content in milligrams.

3. Importance of THC Calculation

Details: Accurate THC calculation is crucial for dosing cannabis products safely, understanding potency, and complying with local regulations where cannabis is legal.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the dose in grams and potency as a percentage. All values must be valid (dose > 0, potency between 0-100).

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Why multiply by 10 in the formula?
A: Multiplying by 10 converts the result to milligrams (1g = 1000mg and 1% = 0.01, so 1000 × 0.01 = 10).

Q2: What is a typical THC potency range?
A: THC potency typically ranges from 10-30% for cannabis flower, with concentrates often having 60-90% THC content.

Q3: How accurate is this calculation?
A: This provides an estimate of total THC content. Actual bioavailability may vary based on consumption method and individual metabolism.

Q4: Can this be used for edibles?
A: Yes, but you need to know the THC content per serving or the total THC in the infused product used for making edibles.

Q5: Is this calculation legal everywhere?
A: Cannabis laws vary by jurisdiction. This calculator is for educational purposes only and should be used in compliance with local laws.
