TL;DR
CBG (cannabigerol) is a non-intoxicating cannabinoid found in hemp plants. Often referred to as a “parent cannabinoid,” CBG is becoming increasingly popular in flower, tinctures, gummies, and combination hemp products.
What Is CBG?
CBG (cannabigerol) is one of many naturally occurring cannabinoids found in hemp plants.
It is often referred to as a “parent cannabinoid” because:
