What’s going on here?

It's a lab device they use to separate certain molecules.

Beats me. I don’t even know what that is.

Can't they separate molecules with a column chromoatograph?

If you found it in a plant probably. But it is in tiny doses only. Why it evaded detection for so long.

Commercially it is made in the lab from CBD.

Does there need to be some sort of internal reaction to create that molecule that CC can't get or is it in such miniscule amounts that physical separation would be tough?

What is the source for the CC? If it is bud, what bud has THCp in it?

So problem one - find plants that have the cannabinoid in a measurable qty.

OK, you found Mendo Purps and it tests to 2% THCp (not really, I sure can't find it)

Problem 2 is THCp and THC are almost identical molecules. Using CC to sort molecules when the molecules are damn near the same is a tough go. Might work, might not. I'd have to find source material and test to know.

Interesting. So once again genetics plays the major factor in acquiring a particular effect. Is there a particular stage of growth where you would find higher ratios of THCp like when they harvest early for particular cannabanoids or is it purely strain specific?

Can't they make it with CBD? or am I thinking of Delta 8?

I don't know. I would need a plant with measurable qty to start testing with. I am not aware of anyone that has one.

Exactly right. What you bought was lab made created with CBD as the start molecule.
