CBCV (Cannabichromevarin)
CBCV (Cannabichromevarin) is a minor cannabinoid found in cannabis, structurally related to CBC (Cannabichromene), but with a slight variation in its chemical structure. Like other varin-type cannabinoids, CBCV has a propyl side chain rather than the more common pentyl side chain found in CBC and other cannabinoids like THC and CBD.
CBD (Cannabidiol)
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a chemical compound found in the Cannabis sativa plant, commonly known as cannabis or hemp. It’s one of the many cannabinoids, and unlike tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), CBD does not produce a psychoactive “high”. One specific form of CBD is approved as a drug in the U.S. for seizures.
CBNA (Cannabinolic Acid)
CBNA (Cannabinolic Acid) is the acidic precursor to CBN (Cannabinol) and is found in raw, unheated cannabis. It forms when THCA (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) is exposed to oxygen over time, undergoing a natural process called oxidation.
CBDA (Cannabidiolic acid)
Cannabidiolic acid, is a cannabinoid produced in cannabis plants. It is the precursor to cannabidiol. It is most abundant in the glandular trichomes on the female seedless flowers or more accurately infructescence often colloquially referred to as buds or flowers.
CBC (Cannabichromene)
Cannabichromene (CBC) is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid found in cannabis, meaning it doesn’t produce a “high” like THC. It’s considered one of the “big six” cannabinoids and is being studied for its potential therapeutic effects, including anti-inflammatory, anti-nociceptive, and anti-cancer properties.
THCV (Tetrahydrocannabivarin)
THCV (Tetrahydrocannabivarin) is a psychoactive cannabinoid found in cannabis, known for its distinct effects compared to Delta-9 THC. It shares a similar chemical structure with THC but tends to produce different effects on the body and mind.
CBCA (Cannabichromenenic acid)
CBCA (Cannabichromenic Acid) is the acidic precursor to CBC (Cannabichromene), one of the lesser-known, non-psychoactive cannabinoids found in cannabis. Like other cannabinoid acids, CBCA exists in raw, unheated cannabis and decays into CBC when exposed to heat (through decarboxylation).
CBN (Cannabinol)
CBN (Cannabinol) is a mildly psychoactive cannabinoid found in cannabis, best known as a byproduct of THC degradation. When THC ages—due to exposure to heat, light, or oxygen—it breaks down into CBN. That’s why older cannabis often has higher levels of CBN.
THC-D8 (Delta 8-tetrahydrocannabinol)
THC-D8 (Delta-8-Tetrahydrocannabinol) is a psychoactive cannabinoid found in cannabis, known for producing a milder high than its more famous cousin, Delta-9 THC. Although it occurs in very small amounts naturally, most Delta-8 products are made by chemically converting CBD from hemp.
CBDVA (Cannabidivarinic acid)
Cannabidivarinic acid (CBDVA) is the carboxylic acid precursor of cannabidivarin (CBDV), a close chemical relative to cannabidiol (CBD). All of these substances originate in Cannabis sativa, and CBDVA, CBDV, and CBD share more similarities than differences.
CBDV (Cannabidivarin)
CBDV (Cannabidivarin) is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid found in cannabis and hemp, closely related to CBD (Cannabidiol) in structure and effects. It’s a member of the “varin” family of cannabinoids, which are known for having a shorter side chain than their more common counterparts.
