Last month we tried to explain the differences among cannabinoids. This month, we are discussing how a cannabis plant goes from crude to distillate to isolate, and what the terms broad and full-spectrum mean. We know this can be a lot to process, especially when we are talking about things like distilling and boiling off extracts and micro-nutrients and what not. However, it’s not that complicated when you get familiar with it. If you like coffee, think about how your tastes have probably evolved over the years. You may have started with a simple cup of coffee or a latte, ...
We recently started selling 10:1 CBD+THC Gummies from our new partner, Compliant Products. These gummies contain 5.6 or 10mg of legal Delta 9 THC. We realize how confusing these shifting laws and new products are for customers, so we wrote up this FAQ to help explain things: Compliant Products FAQ How is this legal? Hemp products are legally allowed to contain up to 0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight, or 3mg/g of Delta-9 thc. Super Gummies from Compliant Products actually contain closer to 0.2% THC or 2mg/g. If these contain less than 0.3% THC, how do we provide so much ...
For years, the only Cannabis compound (cannabinoid) the public knew about was THC. Today, however, it is not so simple. CBD has only been legal for a few years, yet there are suddenly all sorts of new cannabinoids to keep track of. Even with the classic THC we need to now distinguish between the illegal (in some states) Delta 9 THC versus the not illegal (for now) Delta 8 THC. Confused? We haven’t even started yet… This all came to be because of the 2018 United States Farm Bill, which legalized hemp and defined it as “the plant Cannabis sativa L. and ...
In this month’s newsletter we are talking about terpenes, one of the most misunderstood yet important parts of the hemp plant. Terpenes are aromatic compounds found in the essential oils of most plants, flowers, and fruits. They provide aroma, flavor, and various wellness and therapeutic benefits. There are over 20,000 varieties of terpenes that exist in nature, and fortunately the human nose is strong enough to be able to distinguish most of these individual varieties. Terpenes work by reacting with our body’s endocannabinoid system, which is the network of cellular receptors that help us maintain balance and harmony. Depending on ...
Thomas Jefferson, known as the father of the U.S. Patent System, once invented a machine that he felt was so important to the United States agricultural system that he refused to patent it. This machine was a hemp “brake” that easily separated hemp fibers from its stalks. Refusing to patent this item that farmers and economies everywhere could benefit from illustrates how important hemp was to America in its infancy. While this story about Jefferson is accepted to be true, there are many other hemp tales about our nation’s founders that have been discredited or cannot be proven. For instance, ...
You have farmed your hemp plants to perfection over the past couple months and have biomass, now what to do with it? If you are a hemp farmer with biomass, but no processing facility- toll processing might be right for you. Toll processing (also known as toll manufacturing), is defined as a company/facility with specialized equipment processing material for another company. The steps to hemp toll processing are simple: PARTNERED PROCESS TOLL PROCESSING FACILITY CERTIFICATION AND PERMITS: BENEFITS OF TOLL PROCESSING: Hemp toll processing provides the convenience of outsourcing manufacturing work to a specific facility to get a finished crude ...
Partnered process CBD products are sourced from Wisconsin-grown industrial hemp, and some may contain trace amounts of TCH < or = to 0.3%. Partnered Processed does not guarantee that you will or will not pass a drug screen after consuming our products; it is possible that trace THC content may show up on a drug screen.
Not all hemp and CBD products are created equal. Did you know, some hemp is USDA certified organic- but most hemp is not! What’s the big deal and why does this matter? Hemp is a bioaccumulator, which means it absorbs toxins faster than it can release them. It all starts with the soil the hemp is being grown in. Per MOSA, hemp crop can only be labeled as certified organic if the land has been managed without the use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides for 36 months before the crop is harvested. Thats 3 years! What is the difference between certified organic ...
We are all unique, which means there is not two persons alike. Our bodies all process, absorb, and respond to supplements and medications differently. That means that your CBD journey will most likely be different from your friend or partner. The main thing is, taken with consistency, CBD builds up in your body, helping to support its endocannabinoid system, which helps maintain body homeostasis and can bring balance to both body and mind. How will you notice if it is working? It depends on how you are taking your CBD, i.e your delivery method: oral, sublingual (under the tongue), inhalation, ...
**clean and environmentally friendly methods**
There are minimal studies out regarding the effects/benefits of CBD products in animals. It is believed that all animals also have an endocannabinoid system, and the same goes for animals as with humans- this system is needed to create homeostasis in the body and needs to be supported. There are many different reasons you may choose to start your animal on a CBD supplement. Animals have the same parts that we do but their physiology is different. When starting CBD, remember to start low and go slow. Start with a low CBD dose, monitor your pet for its response. If ...
