Low THC Products: What They’re Good For and Where To Find Them

You don’t need maximum THC to experience all that cannabis has to offer. Low THC products won’t leave you feeling too heady or too relaxed to go about your day. Here’s where to start if you want to explore how low THC products shape your cannabis experience.

What is low vs. high THC content?

Think of low THC and high THC like mild versus spicy food. Low THC products, typically with less than 5 mg of THC per serving, are like a gentle seasoning, subtle and easy on your system. They offer a light, relaxing experience without overwhelming effects, making them great for beginners or those who prefer a more controlled high.

On the flipside, high THC products are more akin to working your way up the Hot Ones hot wings scale. More THC can lead to more intense effects and stronger sensory experiences. These are often chosen by seasoned consumers looking for a more potent experience.

Kickstart your day with Harney Brothers’ Wake & Bake Tea, a blend that supports a balanced morning boost. Infused with 4 mg of THC per sachet, it offers a gentle and uplifting opening to your day that’s unlikely to overtake your senses.

This tea blend includes a caffeinated holly called Yaupon, earthy Guayusa, shade-grown Yerba Mate, and a refreshing zing of spearmint alongside the THC. With five sachets per jar, each cup delivers a mix of energizing flavors and subtle effects to embrace the day with a little extra pep.

Wyld Strawberry 20:1 CBD:THC gummy

CBD counterbalances THC’s effects, so trying a product with a higher ratio of CBD to THC gets you the low THC impact you’re looking for. Wyld Strawberry 20:1 gummies contain just 1 mg of THC to 20 mg of CBD, a formula that may take the edge off without clouding your mind.

Harney Brothers Daytime Tincture

Harney Brothers’ Daytime Tincture is finely balanced and formulated to keep you upbeat and focused throughout the day. Each serving contains 2.5 mg of THC, paired with 10 mg each of CBC and CBG, plus 5 mg of CBD. This blend combines cannabinoids to support a clear mind and a positive boost without overwhelming effects. Whether you’re tackling a busy day or just need a bit of extra focus, this tincture offers a subtle, well-rounded boost to help you stay on track.

What about 5 mg THC products?

You’ll find a lot of edibles that contain 5 mg THC per serving. While that may be a large dose for some, it may be small enough for others with higher tolerance.

If 5 mg THC is too overwhelming for you, you can still make these edibles work for you. Look for gummies like Camino, many of which contain 5 mg of THC per serving. However, these gummies have an indent down the middle that are easy to cut in half to create a 2.5 mg THC dose.

Are low-THC products good for microdosing?

Yes. In fact, low-THC products are the focus of microdosing, the practice of taking small amounts of THC throughout the day instead of a large dose at once. If you want to explore if microdosing is right for you, one of the low-THC products on this list may be a good fit.
