FAQ

What is CBD?

Cannabidiol, popularly known as CBD, is a naturally occurring compound found in the Cannabis sativa plant. Unlike its fellow cannabinoid, THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), CBD does not produce a psychoactive effect, meaning it doesn't cause the "high" typically associated with marijuana. Instead, CBD has been widely recognized for its potential therapeutic benefits. Research suggests that CBD may help to manage and alleviate symptoms related to a variety of conditions such as chronic pain, anxiety, depression, insomnia, and epilepsy. It's believed to work by interacting with the body's endocannabinoid system, a complex biological system involved in maintaining our health and well-being. Furthermore, CBD is also celebrated for its potential anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

What is CBG?

Cannabigerol, also known as CBG, is a non-intoxicating cannabinoid found in the Cannabis sativa plant. Often referred to as the "mother" or "stem cell" of cannabinoids, CBG is the precursor from which other cannabinoids, including CBD and THC, are synthesized. While typically found in lower concentrations compared to CBD, CBG has been gaining attention for its potential health benefits. Preliminary studies suggest that CBG may exhibit anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, and antibacterial properties. It has shown promise in potentially helping to manage conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease, neurodegenerative disorders like Huntington's disease, and even certain eye conditions like glaucoma. However, it's important to note that research on CBG is still in its early stages, and more comprehensive studies are needed to fully understand its therapeutic potential. As always, consulting with a healthcare provider is recommended before starting any new health regimen, including one involving CBG.

What is CBN?

Cannabinol, or CBN, is another compound derived from the Cannabis sativa plant. Unlike CBD and CBG, CBN is a mildly psychoactive cannabinoid produced as THC ages and breaks down, although its intoxicating effects are significantly less than those of THC. The potential health benefits of CBN are currently being studied, with early research indicating that it may have several therapeutic properties. CBN is perhaps best known for its potential sedative effects, with some studies suggesting that it could help improve sleep quality. Additionally, it might have anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties, making it a potential candidate for managing conditions associated with pain and inflammation. CBN may also have antibacterial properties and could possibly stimulate appetite, unlike CBD, which does not typically have this effect. As with other cannabinoids, the research on CBN is still relatively new, and further studies are needed to fully understand its potential benefits and side effects. Always consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new supplement regimen, including those involving CBN.

What is Broad Spectrum CBD(BSO)?

Broad Spectrum CBD is one type of CBD product that you can find on the market. It refers to CBD products that contain a range of cannabinoids, flavonoids, and terpenes, all of which are naturally occurring in the cannabis plant, but without any THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the compound that is primarily responsible for the psychoactive effects associated with marijuana. The absence of THC in Broad Spectrum CBD makes it a great option for those who want to avoid any potential psychoactive effects, but still want to benefit from the "entourage effect" -- a synergistic interaction between cannabis compounds that is believed to enhance the health benefits of CBD. Broad Spectrum CBD can be a suitable choice for those who are subject to regular drug testing but want to incorporate the benefits of cannabis into their routine. As always, it's best to consult with a healthcare provider to determine the best choice for your individual needs.

What is Full Spectrum CBD?

Full Spectrum CBD refers to CBD products that contain the full range of cannabinoids, flavonoids, and terpenes that occur naturally in the cannabis plant, including trace amounts of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol). The term "full spectrum" comes from the idea that these products contain the full spectrum of plant compounds, rather than just isolated CBD. The presence of multiple cannabinoids and other compounds in Full Spectrum CBD is thought to enhance its health benefits through a phenomenon known as the "entourage effect". This theory suggests that these compounds work together synergistically to enhance the overall effects of the product. However, because Full Spectrum CBD contains trace amounts of THC (up to 0.3% in the U.S.), it could theoretically show up on a drug test and may produce mild psychoactive effects in some individuals. It's important to consult with a healthcare provider before using Full Spectrum CBD products to understand their potential effects and risks.

What are terpenes?

Terpenes are aromatic compounds that contribute to the unique scents and flavors of various plants, including cannabis. Over 200 different terpenes have been identified in cannabis, each adding to the plant's complex bouquet and potentially influencing its therapeutic effects. Terpenes are believed to work synergistically with cannabinoids, a phenomenon known as the "entourage effect," to enhance the plant's overall therapeutic properties. Certain terpenes, for instance, may promote relaxation and stress relief, while others might exhibit anti-inflammatory or analgesic properties. The terpene profile of a cannabis strain can also influence whether it's classified as an Indica or Sativa. Generally, Indica strains are rich in myrcene, a terpene known for its sedative and muscle-relaxing properties, hence their association with relaxation and sleep. On the other hand, Sativa strains often contain high levels of terpenes like limonene and pinene, which are associated with uplifting and energizing effects. However, it's important to note that the effects of cannabis are determined by a complex interplay of compounds, and not just terpenes alone.

What is Live Resin?

Live resin is a type of cannabis concentrate that is produced using a unique method that takes freshly harvested cannabis and freezes it to subcritical temperatures prior to and throughout the extraction process. This method of extraction is quite distinct from other types because it allows the product to retain the plant's original flavor and fragrance profile, hence the name "live" resin. Live resin is typically a sticky, liquid-like substance that is used in vaporizers and dab rigs. It's often considered a premium product due to its high terpene and cannabinoid content, and it's loved by many cannabis enthusiasts for its strong, complex flavor and scent profiles, and potent effects.

What is Delta 8 THC?

Delta 8 THC is a minor cannabinoid that offers a milder, more focused high than traditional THC. It has gained popularity among cannabis enthusiasts for its unique benefits and effects, which include reducing anxiety, improving mood, increasing appetite, and stimulating creativity and focus. At our retail website, we offer a range of Delta 8 THC products that are tested for purity and potency, providing you with a safe and high-quality experience.

What is Hemp Derived Delta 9 THC?

Hemp Derived Delta-9 THC (Δ9-THC) is a variant of THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) that is sourced from hemp plants. THC is the main psychoactive compound in cannabis that produces the high sensation. However, the hemp plant naturally contains lower concentrations of THC compared to marijuana. The concentration is typically less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC, in compliance with federal laws outlined in the 2018 Farm Bill. Most hemp-derived products focus on CBD (Cannabidiol) and other cannabinoids that have beneficial effects without the psychoactive effects. However, it is possible to extract Delta-9 THC from hemp plants, but the yield is much smaller compared to marijuana.

What is Delta 10 THC?

Delta 10 THC is a relatively new and rare cannabinoid that is found in trace amounts in some cannabis strains. Recently, researchers have been able to isolate Delta 10 THC from hemp plants and have developed methods to extract it. This makes it possible to produce Delta 10 THC products that are derived from hemp, which is legal under federal law in the US. Hemp-derived Delta 10 THC is a promising cannabinoid that is reported to have stimulating and energizing effects, similar to Delta 8 THC, but with a more uplifting and cerebral high. It has also been said to improve focus, creativity, and mental clarity, making it an attractive choice for those who want to experience the benefits of THC without the intense sedative effects associated with Delta 9 THC. At our retail website, we offer a range of hemp-derived Delta 10 THC products, including tinctures, edibles, and vape cartridges. All of our Delta 10 THC products are tested for purity and potency, ensuring that you receive a safe and high-quality experience.

What is THC-V?

Tetrahydrocannabivarin, more commonly known as THCV, is a minor cannabinoid found within the cannabis plant. Although its molecular structure is similar to THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), it has different effects. THCV is psychoactive at high doses, but unlike THC, it doesn't induce the same intense euphoric sensations or "high." Instead, it's known to provide a clear-headed, stimulating effect. At lower doses, it's believed to be non-psychoactive. It's worth noting that THCV is generally present in only small amounts in most cannabis strains, but certain African sativa strains are known to have higher concentrations. Ongoing scientific research is investigating THCV for potential therapeutic uses in conditions such as obesity, diabetes, and neurological disorders.

What is HHC?

HHC, or Hexahydrocannabinol, is a relatively new cannabinoid that is found in trace amounts in some cannabis strains. Researchers have recently been able to isolate HHC from hemp plants and have developed methods to extract it, making it possible to produce HHC products that are derived from hemp, which is legal under federal law in the US. Hemp-derived HHC is a promising cannabinoid that is reported to have a range of benefits, including pain relief, reducing anxiety, and promoting relaxation. It has also been said to have uplifting and mood-enhancing effects, making it an attractive choice for those who want to experience the benefits of cannabinoids without the intense intoxication associated with Delta 9 THC. At our retail website, we offer a range of hemp-derived HHC products, including tinctures, edibles, and vape cartridges. All of our HHC products are tested for purity and potency, ensuring that you receive a safe and high-quality experience.

What is the difference between Delta 8 THC and Delta 9 THC?

Delta 8 THC and Delta 9 THC are both cannabinoids found in cannabis, but they have distinct differences in their chemical structure and effects. Delta 9 THC is the primary psychoactive compound found in cannabis and is responsible for the well-known "high" associated with the plant. Delta 8 THC, on the other hand, is a minor cannabinoid, meaning it occurs in lower concentrations in cannabis than Delta 9 THC. One of the main differences between Delta 8 THC and Delta 9 THC is their potency and effects. Delta 9 THC is known for producing a strong, euphoric high that can result in sedation and feelings of relaxation. Delta 8 THC, on the other hand, produces a milder, more focused high that is less intoxicating than Delta 9 THC. Another difference between the two cannabinoids is their legal status. Delta 9 THC is regulated as a controlled substance in many parts of the world, including the US, and is illegal under federal law. Delta 8 THC, on the other hand, is legal under federal law in the US as long as it is derived from hemp and contains less than 0.3% Delta 9 THC by dry weight. At our retail website, we offer a range of Delta 8 THC products that are rigorously tested for purity and potency, providing you with a safe and high-quality experience. Please note that the legal status of Delta 8 THC may vary depending on your location, so it's important to check local laws and regulations before purchasing any products.

What is the Endocannabinoid System (ECS)?

The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a complex cell-signaling system identified in the early 1990s by researchers studying THC, a well-known cannabinoid. Cannabinoids are compounds found in cannabis (and hemp). The ECS is key to maintaining homeostasis — the body's internal equilibrium in response to changes in the environment. It plays a crucial role in many bodily functions, including mood, sleep, appetite, memory, reproduction, and pain sensation. The ECS is composed of three core components: endocannabinoids, receptors, and enzymes. Cannabinoids connect to primarily the CB1 receptors in the brain and central nervous system and the CB2 receptors in the peripheral nervous system and immune cells. When there's a disruption to the body's balance, the ECS swings into action, producing endocannabinoids that bind to the receptors, signaling the ECS to take action. Once the endocannabinoids have done their job, enzymes break them down to prevent overactivity. Plant-based cannabinoids like CBD and THC interact with the ECS differently. While THC binds directly with CB1 receptors (leading to the "high" feeling), CBD doesn't bind directly with either type of receptor. Instead, it seems to help the ECS work more effectively, for example, by preventing endocannabinoids from being broken down or by activating other types of receptors. By understanding the endocannabinoid system, we can see how substances like CBD from hemp can have potential therapeutic effects and promote overall well-being.
