How to choose your CBD flowers, in this first blog post, we'll give you several tips on how to choose your cannabis flowers. 100% legal cannabidioland, at the same time, we'll tell you about some unscrupulous practices applied to your favorite products. (Warning: this article won't be to everyone's taste!)
Terpenes are aromatic molecules naturally produced by plants. There are several thousand different terpenes, each with its own characteristic smell. That's why some varieties of CBD cannabis can have a fruity, earthy or even cheesy aroma!
Some varieties produce few terpenes and therefore have little or no odor. Although a strong smell is not always synonymous with quality, some market players do not hesitate to add terpenes to their products. This is to make it look as if the flowers have a naturally exceptional scent when the sachet is opened.
It's very easy to check. Once you receive your order, open the package. The smell should be the same as that produced by the flowers when you crush or crumble them. If there is a scent when you open the package but no aroma when you crumble the flowers, it means that they have been in contact with added terpenes and that the smell is not natural.
The cannabidiol present in hemp is no longer a secret. However, its concentration varies greatly depending on the part of the plant. Just like sugar in a fruit tree: the sugar concentration is much higher in the fruit than in the leaves or branches. As you can see, CBD concentration is higher in flowers, but almost non-existent in leaves, seeds or branches.
CBD flowers are sold by weight. The addition of these residues increases the weight without providing you with more material.
Indeed, some unscrupulous retailers do not follow proper storage practices. Mold can then develop on CBD flowers. But that doesn't stop them from selling them!
Moldy flowers will have less flavor, less potency, and may also be dangerous to your health. To avoid consuming them, it is essentialto learn how to recognize moldy CBD flowers.
Ouch, ouch, ouch... We're tackling a subject that deserves to be highlighted. Today, European legislation authorizes the marketing of hemp with a THC content (the psychoactive molecule considered a narcotic) of less than 0.2% or 0.3%, depending on the country.
Cannabidiol and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) concentrations are positively correlated: if CBD levels rise, so do THC levels (conversely, if CBD levels fall, so do THC levels).
Growers do their utmost to produce plants with a high CBD content while respecting THC limits.
However, a high concentration of cannabidiol creates a risk of exceeding the legal THC limit. It should be noted that this limit may vary from country to country. For example, it is 1% in Switzerland (five times higher than in France!), while Italian law only allows 0.6%. This is why some producers are unable to sell their goods outside their borders: their crops have too high a THC content...
They lower THC levels using chemical processes that are not clean. Unfortunately, these chemical actions don't just work on THC, they lower and destroy all the cannabinoids present in the flowers... and the same goes for our beloved cannabidiol.
The result? A low-quality, polluted product with little or no natural substance... but one that complies with the law!
Most of these methods are normally used for the sole purpose of extracting and processing cannabis substances, not to reduce the THC content of the flowers! We don't know all the methods used, as we don't endorse this type of process, but we're sharing with you the information that has been provided to us by some unscrupulous players.
One of the most commonly used methods :
Simply bathe the flowers in a solution of ethanol or butane, and the trichomes (resinous residues containing hemp's active ingredients) will dilute in the solvent. As a result, the THC and all the natural substances escape from the final product. This is followed by rinsing and drying. With this technique, the outward appearance of the hemp flowers remains unchanged.
Nice, isn't it?
Our advice? Choose unmodified products with no added terpenes.
We hope you enjoyed this first article and that it has provided you with the knowledge you need to choose the right CBD cannabis flowers, and above all, to avoid buying hemp with added terpenes, powdered CBD crystals, or worse, propane or butane residues... at $15 (or more!) per gram.
It's essential that the CBD flowers you buy comply with all the elements mentioned above, so that they are of the highest possible quality.
Our flowers comply with these various elements with the sole aim of meeting the expectations of the most demanding customers.
