THCA HASH
WATERMELON ZKITTLEZ CBG/THCA PIATELLA HASH TEA
WATERMELON ZKITTLEZ CBG/THCA PIATELLA HASH TEA
Watermelon Zkittlez already has a place in the standard range. This one is different. The same vivid profile - sweet watermelon and juicy candy-forward primary, tropical fruit depth and grape-adjacent warmth from the Zkittlez lineage - now in a firm Type 2 hemp Piatella format that carries 42% THCA and 37% CBG alongside each other in the same block. CBG is the mother of all cannabinoids, the precursor compound from which THCA and most other major cannabinoids in the plant are synthesised. Most hemp products carry around 1% CBG. This carries 37%. Two cannabinoids, one of the most beloved sweet profiles in the range, in one of the most refined hash formats we produce. Soft, resinous and brewed as a tea. Small batch and limited.

DESCRIPTION
Piatella is a hash format with roots in European artisan extraction. Traditionally produced through cold-separation, isolating trichome heads at low temperatures before hand-pressing the collected material into its characteristic soft, pliable form. Denser in trichome concentration than conventional pressed hash, darker in appearance and noticeably more resinous in texture. A format that takes considerably more time and care to produce than a standard block press.
What makes this Piatella different to the standard Watermelon Zkittlez in the range is what's inside it. This is a Type 2 hemp product - 42% THCA and 37% CBG in the same block. Most hemp products are built around a single dominant cannabinoid. Type 2 hemp is a different category entirely.
CBG - cannabigerol - is the mother of all cannabinoids. CBGA, its acid form, is the biosynthetic precursor from which THCA, CBDA and most other major cannabinoids in the plant are produced. During plant growth, the vast majority of CBGA converts into those downstream compounds - which is why standard hemp products typically carry around 1% CBG. Getting to 37% requires specific Type 2 genetics and deliberate cultivation choices. Early research into CBG is at the preclinical stage but is generating genuine scientific interest, with studies exploring potential anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective and antibacterial properties. The entourage effect - the understanding that multiple cannabinoids present together may interact and potentially enhance each other's properties - means a cup with 42% THCA and 37% CBG together is a different proposition to a cup with either one alone.
The terpene profile does exactly what the Watermelon Zkittlez name promises. The Watermelon parent leads with clean, sweet and juicy watermelon-adjacent primary character. Zkittlez, from Grape Ape and Grapefruit lineage, adds tropical candy depth and grape-adjacent warmth underneath. Limonene dominates across both parents, providing the bright citrus lift. Myrcene contributes earthy warmth at the base. Caryophyllene adds peppery structural depth. In the cup the sweet watermelon and candy character comes through vividly from the first pour. The tropical and grape depth develops as the brew steeps.

All ingredients are independently lab tested. We calculate cannabinoid percentages from verified constituent lab reports. Certificate of Analysis available on this page.
How to brew: take a small piece, break it down and place in your infuser or tea bag. Pour water at around 80°C. Steep for 4 to 5 minutes. Adding full-fat or oat milk helps the fat-soluble compounds integrate into the brew.

Heat Exposure Risk Notice
If this tea extract is exposed to combustion or sufficiently high heat (well above brewing temperature), decarboxylation may occur, resulting in the chemical conversion of THCA into Δ9-THC.
Δ9-THC is classified as a controlled substance under UK law. Any alteration of the cannabinoid profile through heat exposure may therefore change the legal status of the material.
Potential Side Effects of Δ9-THC:
In some individuals, Δ9-THC has been associated with adverse physiological or psychological responses. Reported adverse responses include disorientation, anxiety, altered perception, impaired coordination, nausea, increased heart rate, and temporary cognitive disturbance.
These risks do not apply to normal brewing at or below boiling point, and may arise only through combustion, vaporisation, or other misuse.

Watermelon Zkittlez CBG/THCA Piatella Hash Tea | The Bud Works
Watermelon Zkittlez already exists in the range as a standard Piatella. This is not that product. This is the Type 2 version - 42% THCA and 37% CBG in the same block, the same vivid and fruit-forward terpene profile in a cannabinoid format that the standard version can't offer. Two cannabinoids that most products separate or ignore entirely, combined in one of the most refined hash formats in the range.
CBG is the mother of all cannabinoids in a literal biochemical sense. CBGA - its acid form - is the compound from which THCA, CBDA and most other major plant cannabinoids are synthesised during growth. By the time most hemp plants are harvested, the majority of CBGA has already converted into those downstream compounds, which is why the average hemp product carries around 1% CBG. Getting to 37% requires Type 2 genetics and intentional cultivation choices that most hemp producers don't make. Early research into CBG is at the preclinical stage but is generating real scientific interest - studies exploring its potential anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective and antibacterial properties are building a picture of a compound that's increasingly hard to ignore. The entourage effect principle, the understanding that multiple cannabinoids interact and may enhance each other's properties when present together, means that the combination of THCA and CBG in the same cup is a genuinely different experience to a product with either one alone.
The terpene profile brings the Watermelon Zkittlez character across in full. The Watermelon parent provides the clean, sweet and juicy primary character that defines the top of the profile. Zkittlez, from Grape Ape and Grapefruit lineage, adds tropical candy depth and grape-adjacent warmth underneath. In the cup the sweet watermelon and candy character comes through vividly from the first pour. The tropical and grape depth builds as the brew steeps. In Piatella format the terpene expression is broader and more layered than standard pressed hash, releasing gradually across the full steep.
Small batch by nature. The cold-separation and hand-pressing methodology of Piatella production limits yield and availability reflects that.
CBG - The Mother of All Cannabinoids
CBGA is the foundational compound in cannabis biosynthesis - the starting point from which THCA, CBDA and most other major cannabinoids are produced. Most of it converts during plant growth, which is why CBG-rich products are uncommon. Early research suggests CBG may have anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective and antibacterial properties and interacts with the endocannabinoid system through multiple receptor pathways. These findings are at the preclinical stage and more research is ongoing, but the interest from the scientific community reflects a compound that's increasingly hard to ignore.
THCA as a Naturally Occurring Hemp Compound
THCA is tetrahydrocannabinolic acid, a naturally occurring compound found in raw hemp. It belongs to the same family of plant compounds as CBDA found in hemp flower. Just as ginger contains compounds in its raw form that change when cooked, THCA exists in its natural acid form in unheated hemp. It's non-psychoactive in this state and is not a controlled substance under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971. Brewing hemp as a tea at temperatures well below decarboxylation threshold keeps the compound in its natural form. The Bud Works sells all THCA products exclusively for hot water infusion. Combustion and vaping are not an intended or supported use.
All ingredients are independently lab tested and we calculate cannabinoid percentages from verified constituent lab reports. Delta-9 THC is below 0.2%, within UK legal limits. Sold for hot water infusion only. Small batch. Stock is not replenished on a fixed schedule.
