What is CBG?
As cannabis plants grow, they produce cannabigerolic acid (which is known as CBGA). It's the precursor to the three main cannabinoid lines: THCA, CBDA, and CBCA. Then, when energy is added to CBGA through heating, it undergoes a chemical reaction called decarboxylation (you know... "decarbing") which drops the A from CBGA, converting it from cannabigerolic acid to cannabigerol. Over time, most...
What is cannabichromene (CBC)?
In 2021, most people have heard of THC and CBD — two of the most abundant and medically relevant cannabinoids in the cannabis plant. But how much do you know about CBC? Cannabichromene — AKA CBC — is another of the "big six" cannabinoids found in cannabis, made from the same "cannabinoid stem cell" as CBD and THC: cannabigerol (CBG).

One of the most prominent changes that happens as time goes on is that terpenes begin to convert to terpenoids! Although this can be seen as the terpenes degrading, most rosin is just as potent and aromatic (or more so)...
