How is THC Oil Made? The Process Explained

As OTT's premium THC oil gains popularity, many have been asking, “How is your THC oil made?”

At OTT, we prioritise transparency in all our operations, ensuring honesty and accountability. We aim to make our THC oil production as sustainable as possible while acknowledging that there is always room for improvement. Here’s a step-by-step guide to our THC oil production process, from seed to final product.

1. Planting

The journey begins with selecting high-quality cannabis seeds known for their high THC content. Our certified cannabis farm uses a well-prepared soil bed, ensuring optimal conditions for growth. We plant the seeds in deep grooves, about 12-18 inches, which allow the roots to establish firmly. The seeds are sown using precise machinery, ensuring even distribution and depth for uniform growth.

2. Caring

Once planted, our cannabis plants require diligent care. We avoid using fertilizers, insecticides, or any toxic chemicals, relying instead on natural growth methods. Regular watering, monitoring soil pH levels, and ensuring adequate sunlight are crucial. Our team of experts also conducts regular inspections to prevent pests and diseases, ensuring the plants grow healthily.

3. Harvesting

When the cannabis plants reach full maturity, typically around late summer, it's time for harvesting. Our experienced farmers carefully monitor the plants to determine the optimal harvest time, ensuring the highest THC content. Using advanced harvesting equipment, we meticulously collect the flowers, which are the primary source of THC.

4. Drying

Post-harvest, the cannabis flowers are transported to a temperature- and humidity-controlled environment for drying. This process is crucial to preserve the THC and other cannabinoids. The drying process can take several days to weeks, depending on the ambient conditions. Proper drying ensures the flowers are ready for extraction without any degradation of quality.

5. Extracting

The dried cannabis flowers undergo a meticulous extraction process. We use supercritical CO2 extraction, a solvent-free method that ensures purity and potency. This process involves using pressurized carbon dioxide to extract the full spectrum of cannabinoids, terpenes, and other beneficial compounds from the plant material, resulting in a potent THC-rich extract.

6. Flavouring

To enhance the user experience, our THC oil is often infused with natural flavourings. We offer a variety of delightful flavours including bubble gum, mango, lemon, strawberry, and blueberry. These natural flavourings not only add a pleasant aroma and taste but also complement the organic properties of THC, enhancing the overall effect.

7. Testing

Quality and safety are paramount at OTT. Every batch of our THC oil undergoes rigorous testing for potency, purity, and contaminants. We use high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to ensure the THC concentration is accurate and that there are no harmful substances. This testing guarantees that our products meet the highest standards of quality and safety.

8. Packing

Once the THC oil passes all quality tests, it is ready for packaging. We use secure, tamper-evident bottles to maintain the oil’s integrity during shipping and storage. Each bottle is meticulously labelled with detailed information about the product, including THC content, batch number, and expiration date. Our packaging process ensures that the THC oil reaches consumers in perfect condition, ready to deliver the best experience.

At OTT, our dedication to quality and transparency in every step of the production process ensures that you receive only the finest THC oil. From planting to packing, we are committed to delivering a product that meets your highest expectations.
