THCA gummies vs Delta-9 gummies — which is the real one?

Ironically, the "Delta-9" gummy is usually the straightforward product: hemp-derived Δ9 THC dosed under the 0.3%-by-weight math (a 4g gummy can lawfully carry ~10mg Δ9). It is real THC, tested per serving on a decent COA. "THCA gummies" deserve a raised eyebrow — unheated THCA is poorly absorbed and weakly active, so an edible marketed on THCA either did the decarboxylation (making it a THC gummy wearing a compliance costume) or under-delivers. Either way the finished-product COA and per-serving milligrams are the truth; the front label is branding.
