What is CBG?

Cannabigerol, or CBG, is one of over 100 cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. CBG is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid, which means it won't get you high. It is usually converted to CBD and THC as the hemp plant grows, but some industrial hemp strains are composed of some bred to produce high levels of CBG for its beneficial effects. Like THC and CBD, CBG reacts with cannabinoid receptors in the human body, but each cannabinoid provides different effects.

What is the difference between CBG flower and CBD flower?

CBG stands for cannabigerolic acid, which is the base that becomes tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA), the precursor of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiolic acid (CBDA), the precursor of CBD. Most hemp strains contain only small amounts of CBG, but new CBG-rich strains are now available. Since the CBG hemp flower is still a less common variety, it often comes at a higher cost.

CBG is the parent molecule of THC and CBD, which have different and different molecular structures related to the endocannabinoid system. Unlike THC, CBD and CBG are non-psychoactive, which means it has no psychoactive effects. Our CBG hemp flower contains less than 0.2% THC.

Separately, each cannabinoid has its own beneficial properties, many of which overlap. When CBD and CBG are taken together, the benefits of CBD are believed to last longer and are more pronounced. CBG is also expected to amplify or synergize with the other cannabinoids and terpenes in full spectrum products.
