Lavender CBG Flower 5g

What do you know about CBG?

At this point most people know about THC and even CBD. Most have even dabbled with some form of these cannabinoids, but most have likely not heard of CBG, or cannabigerol. It is another cannabinoid found in hemp, similar to cannabidiol and tetrahydrocannabinol. It’s often referred to by a tiny group of total nerds as the "mother" or "stem cell" cannabinoid because it is the precursor from which other cannabinoids are synthesized. 

Typically, CBG is found in very low concentrations in mature hemp plants, often less than 1%. However, breeders are developing strains that are specifically high in CBG. For instance, Lavender CBG here with a very high twelve percent CBG is a truly interesting flower. For cannabis lovers, this is a must check out. Consider all the generations of selection done to achieve this result of having that high of content.

Will CBG Get me high?

No, it does not get you high. Unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), which is the primary psychoactive compound in cannabis, CBG is non-psychoactive. This means it does not produce the "high" associated with THC.

CBG interacts with the body's endocannabinoid system but does not bind strongly to the CB1 receptors in the brain, which are responsible for the psychoactive effects of THC. Instead, CBG is believed to influence other receptors and pathways in the body, potentially offering various therapeutic benefits without altering your mental state similar to CBD but perhaps with variations.

So is CBG useful?

Early research suggests it may have anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and neuroprotective properties. It is also being investigated for its potential to help with conditions like glaucoma, inflammatory bowel disease, and bladder dysfunctions, so it sounds pretty useful. Much like CBD and good old fashioned weed, it seems like the output of the cannabis plant is generally good.  As the popularity of hemp increases, more and more consumers are checking out these alternative cannabinoids. 

Who is Lavender CBG Good for?

This is honestly a special hemp strain and a wonderful choice for tackling anxiety, depression, indigestion, or insomnia. Its versatility makes it stand out, offering a soothing sense of calm right from the start. Not only is Lavender great for promoting restful sleep, but it can also be used during the day without affecting mental clarity. Strains with high levels of CBG are not easy to find, making us especially excited to offer this unique hemp variety. For patients looking to get things done without being baked, this is a go to strain. There’s no denying the efficacy of weed for nausea. Now to get rid of nausea, the person doesn’t need to be high. 

The impact of CBG on pregnant or nursing women hasn't been thoroughly researched, so it's best to avoid it. If you're dealing with health concerns, it's wise to have a conversation with your doctor. They might recommend CBG as an option for you. It's important to prioritize the guidance of your healthcare provider over information found online. Remember, while taking personal responsibility for your health is crucial, it's also essential to find joy in life.

Is CBG even legal? 

Generally, CBG hemp products with low THC content (typically less than 0.2% or 0.3%) are legal in many European countries, similar to CBD. However, it's essential to check the laws and regulations in your specific location to ensure compliance. Remember though, this isn’t getting people high. In most places, there’s no reason for this to be illegal. 

How to enjoy Lavender CBD Flower!

Grind it up with your favorite grinder and roll it, pack it, vape it, bake with it, do whatever you would do with any other flower. Hemp has been used for thousands of years by humans to increase their overall well being and happiness, and this bag of flowers is no different. 

Those who are very concerned with the health aspect of CBG should consider vaping their products. It’s certainly healthier than many of the alternatives. Eating it is a wise choice as well, but remember you can’t simply eat the bud to get the effects. Instead it must be bound to a fat so your body can ingest the active compounds. Look up how to make weed butter. With that kind of method it’s best to have at least an ounce of bulk CBG flower. 

Speaking of bulk flower, there’s plenty of it in the CBD flower shop here at Express Highs. There’s lots of CBD available in the store in indica and sativa varieties. Whatever your flavor preference from Bubba Kush to Bubble Gum, it’s there. Everything comes bagged up in 5 gram increments and it’s sealed and tested of course.
