Melee Dose is here to help you make your first online hemp purchase with complete confidence. You have already taken our quiz (right?), but you might still be unsure about buying hemp THC products online. But don’t worry—you’re not alone. There are plenty of people just like you who get frustrated when trying to find legitimate gummies, vapes, or pre rolls online.
Scouring the internet for the best hemp-based products can truly seem daunting, especially if it’s your first time. We’ll walk you through the five key factors to consider so you can arrive at an informed, safe, and confident purchase.
1. Know What You’re Looking For
Hemp products come in various forms, such as oils, gummies, topicals, capsules, and even THCa pre rolls. Each product type serves different needs, so understanding your goals is key:
Looking for relief from stress or anxiety? CBD gummies may be a good option where you can meter your dose. Managing aches and pains? Topical creams and balms are targeted for localized relief. But you may find faster relief with smokeables like live resin vapes or THCa pre rolls. Looking for convenience? Capsules or low-dose gummies offer a simple way to incorporate hemp into your routine. Then it’s important to consider what cannabinoids you’re trying to enjoy.
The buzz around Delta-8 THC isn’t just for hardcore cannabis enthusiasts; it’s reaching everyone. Thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill, the growth of this new cannabinoid star has skyrocketed, making it easy and legal to get your hands on, right at your doorstep. There are also other hemp-derived cannabinoids such as Delta-10, THC-O, HHC, CBC, and CBN. These compounds may have similar effects to Delta-8 THC but with less intense effects. Melee Dose crafts hemp-derived THC products that blend many of these compounds for a potentially unique and potent experience.
2. Check For Lab Results (COAs)
One of the most important steps in buying hemp THC products online is ensuring the product is tested by a third-party lab. Lab results, also known as Certificates of Analysis (COAs), confirm that the product contains the amount of CBD or other cannabinoids advertised. It also confirms that it is free from harmful chemicals, pesticides, or heavy metals. You don’t want to smoke or consume these!
Look for transparency on the brand’s website. If a company doesn’t share its lab reports, that’s a red flag! If they have lab reports visible, check the recency of them. This shows an active commitment to providing customers with transparency and the highest quality products possible.
3. Read Customer Reviews & YouTube Reviews
Reviews can provide invaluable insights into how well a product has been working for others with similar needs. While everyone’s experience may vary, seeing consistent feedback about effectiveness, taste, or customer service can help you feel more secure in your decision. You likely look at Google reviews for a restaurant before going out to dinner—why wouldn’t you do that with your hemp THC products as well?
Pay attention to details in reviews whether they’re textual or on YouTube. Are customers mentioning how long shipping took? How well does the product work for their condition? Have any new users left a review on how their first experience was? Are there avid users with high tolerances who are claiming this product is still effective for them? How many total reviews are there on each product? Is there one in particular that seems to have a lot of positive reviews that suit your needs?
At Melee Dose, we are constantly asking for feedback from our customers in the form of reviews, surveys, and videos. You’ll always see new product reviews popping up on our site from real customers. You can also visit our YouTube channel to see a playlist of our best reviews. Not to mention our dedicated community page. We invite you to see what people are saying about buying hemp THC products online from us.
4. Know the Legalities
While hemp-derived CBD is legal at the federal level, some states have stricter laws. Make sure to check the legal status of hemp in your state before purchasing to avoid any legal issues with delivery. Other companies might not have as much information available to help you make the legal decision. This might result in paying for a product that ultimately can’t be sent to you, and who knows what the return policy is like…
Melee Dose lists the state-by-state legality in all of our product descriptions for your convenience. You’ll also receive a notification before checkout if you place an order and it can’t legally be delivered to you. Read more about legality from our in-depth article all about the exciting world of cannabinoids.
5. Look for Customer Support & Return Policies
Reputable online retailers should offer good customer support. Whether it’s a live chat option, detailed FAQs, or a dedicated customer service team, having someone to answer your questions is a good indicator of trustworthiness. Before making your final decision, check the return policy. Many companies offer satisfaction guarantees, which means if the product doesn’t work for you, you can return it. This provides peace of mind when making your first purchase.
By following these steps, you can confidently purchase the right hemp product for you. Remember, it’s about finding the product that best fits your lifestyle and needs. Take your time, do your research, and you’ll be well on your way to experiencing the benefits of hemp!
