Gary Payton – High-Octane Hybrid with Attitude
30.96% THCA | Hybrid | The Y x Snowman
Gary Payton doesn’t mess around—and neither does this strain. Bred from The Y and Snowman, this hybrid phenom is as bold and unfiltered as the NBA legend it’s named after. At 30.96% THCA, this is one of the hardest-hitting outdoor-grown strains on the market, period. Organically cultivated, slow-cured, and dripping with terpenes, these full-sized, sun-fed buds are available in our signature THC Locker jars, or bulk-packed by the pound for those who already know the power it packs.
Potency & Profile
This isn’t some mid-tier crowd-pleaser. This is a no-nonsense hybrid, pushing just under 31% THCA—a number that makes even some indoor strains sweat. Gary Payton is perfectly balanced, but make no mistake—it comes in hot. Expect a potent mix of cerebral uplift and body-soothing relaxation, with mood elevation, creativity, and sensory enhancement dialed all the way up.
This is what happens when you mix high art and blunt force.
Organically Grown Outdoors – Built by Nature, Refined by Us
At THC Locker, we treat outdoor cultivation like a science and a craft. This Gary Payton crop was grown organically, with a focus on living soil, microbial diversity, and full-spectrum cannabinoid expression. We let the sun push this plant to its genetic limits, while our crew handled the fine-tuning—nutrient timing, pest control, water calibration, and a slow, patient cure to lock in those cherry-sweet terps and maintain trichome integrity.
You’re not just getting a strong strain. You’re getting a wild, sun-forged masterpiece.

FAQs
Is THCA Legal?
Under the 2018 Farm Bill, THCA is legal if derived from hemp and if the product contains less than 0.3% delta-9 THC on a dry weight basis. However, some states interpret this differently. Always check your local laws.
Will THCA Get Me High?
Not in its raw form. THCA is non-psychoactive until it's heated. Once decarboxylated—by smoking, vaping, or cooking—it turns into THC, which is psychoactive.
How Is THCA Different from THC?
THCA (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid found in raw cannabis. When consumed orally in its natural, unheated form—such as in smoothies, gummies, capsules, tinctures, or juiced flower—it remains in its acidic state and does not produce intoxication.
However, when THCA is exposed to heat through smoking, vaping, or cooking at sufficient temperatures, it undergoes decarboxylation, a chemical process that converts it into THC, the compound responsible for the psychoactive effects typically associated with cannabis.
This key distinction makes THCA a compelling option for individuals seeking potential therapeutic benefits without experiencing euphoria or psychoactive effects—unless it is intentionally decarboxylated through methods such as heating, vaping, or smoking, which convert it into active THC.
Is There a Best Way to Consume THCA?
Depends on your goal. For a non-psychoactive experience, try raw THCA in smoothies or tinctures. For a psychoactive effect, heat it via smoking, vaping, or baking.
Are Your Products Lab Tested?
Absolutely. Every strain comes with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) from a third-party ISO-certified lab. We test for potency, terpene content, and contaminants.
