In recent years, there has been growing interest in the development of therapies and other consumer products derived from cannabis and hemp, including cannabidiol (CBD). With the passage of the US 2018 Farm Bill, hemp was removed from the Controlled Substances Act (CSA), which means that cannabis plants and derivatives that contain no more than 0.3% total tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) on a dry weight basis are no longer controlled substances under federal law. The small amount of THC found naturally in hemp can exceed the legal limit of 0.3% when extracted and concentrated along with CBD. Therefore, it is important to have a means of removing THC from CBD extracts in order to comply with Federal regulations.
Chromatography has been used successfully in many industries as a means for purifying compounds. Supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) is a form of normal phase chromatography that uses a supercritical fluid such as carbon dioxide as the mobile phase. SFC excels at separating and purifying compounds derived from natural sources because it is faster, uses much less solvent, and, overall, is a less expensive and greener method compared to high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC).

#TerpeneThursday: Geraniol has also been found in catnip, beebalm, Assam tea, lemongrass, grapes, citronella, and Citra hops. Interestingly, it’s also found in tobacco plants. Geraniol is also one of the main components of the Nasonov pheromone that is released by worker honeybees to help re-orient the bees that were out foraging when they return to the hive. Bees also create it to mark nectar-bearing flowers. This terpene has been shown to be an effective plant-based mosquito repellent.
Geraniol is a neuroprotectant, making it an attractive molecule for further study in treating or preventing neurodegenerative disorders like Parkinson’s disease. It is an antioxidant, and has shown anti-cancer properties for skin, oral, breast, lung, colon, prostate, pancreatic, kidney, and liver cancers. Additionally, geraniol has augmented the efficacy of chemotherapy drugs.
Cannabis cultivars measured to contain geraniol include Lavender, Amnesia Haze, Headband, Great White Shark, Black Mamba, Skywalker, and Death Star OG.

Does cannabidiol (CBD) reduce the psychotropic effects of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)? According to a 2012 study published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology, the answer is a tentative yes.
Englund and colleagues designed the following experiment: 48 cannabis-using participants (ages 21-50) were pre-treated with either two 300 mg CBD capsules or two placebo capsules. Administration was double-blind, meaning the participants and researchers didn’t know which capsules were CBD. Three-and-a-half hours later, the researchers injected 1.5 mg THC intravenously.

Then the real fun started.

Discussions of double winterization or distillation abound, but when you employ these different techniques depends on what products you’re looking to create.
The main decision-making that should design your product refinement blueprint is what type of products you’re looking to make. Want creams, lotions, salves? A decarboxylated crude oil might be just the ticket, since those plant waxes may be wanted, natural, topical ingredients.
Vending vapes? Again, getting those waxes out is critical, so you might do several winterizations until waxes are no longer collected, or you may just pass a winterized oil through your distillation setup. Winterized oil for vapes doesn’t need to be decarboxylated since the heat generated from the coil will decarboxylate THCA (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) or CBDA (cannabidiolic acid) to delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabidiol, respectively.
Tinctures can be prepared from crude or winterized oils, or distillate. Obviously, these must be decarboxylated no matter what oil is used such that neutral, active cannabinoids can work their phytomedicinal magic. Yes, crude oil tinctures might be a bit vegetal and linger on one’s tongue, but they’ll also contain the most diverse assortment of extracted molecules. There’s a reason why Rick Simpson Oil is popular, and it’s certainly not the taste.

Gofire is a metered-dose vaporizer and app that provides chemical/dosing information for certified products. If you want to control exactly how many cannabinoids and terpenes you’re consuming, the Gofire can help you out. The device extrudes “SmartCartridge” oil extracts in 2.5 mg increments into a convection chamber and alerts the user when the dose has been inhaled. It is unclear how or if the vaporizer meters dry herb and other extracts. The dosage settings range from small to large. You can customize the device to your own preferred settings.
In addition to the vaporizer, Gofire also manages an app. This keeps track of all of your doses so you can reference past sessions. You might find that a particular dosage setting relieves your anxiety, reduces your pain, or stimulates your appetite. Gofire hinges on the idea that consumers want a customized, predictable dosage.
A Gofire vaporizer isn’t cheap. However, its $299 price point is in line with other high-quality vaporizers. What sets Gofire apart is its app and the ability to meter and track your consumption. There are a lot of reasons why this may be important. Medical patients, for example, often want to know the exact strength and size of their dose. Not only can they learn what dosage alleviates their symptoms, they can make sure they don’t overconsume.
If you don’t care about tracking your dosage, Gofire isn’t much better than the typical dry herb/concentrate vaporizer.

Arguably the most popular Do-It-Yourself technique today is bubble hash. Extractors create bubble hash by placing plant material in ice water and gently agitating the trichomes off the plant. Then, they employ a series of filters to trap the chemical treasures from the water. What do you prefer?

#TerpeneThursday: Myrcene is present in many plants including hops, mangoes, tea tree, celery, and lemongrass. It emits a fruity, clove-like aroma, but has also been implicated as providing the trademark skunk of certain cannabis cultivars. Myrcene has been nominated as the most frequent terpene in cannabis, and is also highly prevalent in hoppy beers.
The concentration of the monoterpene myrcene in a cannabis plant or product could provide insight on whether that product will have a sedative effect. That said, higher concentrations of myrcene have been shown to cause anxiety in mice.
Myrcene also has anti-fungal, antibacterial, antiseptic, and anti-inflammatory properties. Additionally, myrcene can gobble up free radicals, making it a powerful antioxidant.
Myrcene is common to cannabis varieties like Jack Herer, Blue Dream, the Kush Group, Granddaddy Purple, Green Crack, White Widow, or Amnesia.

In order to prevent harmful bacteria and other microbes from infecting your cannabis plants and products, there are various precautions to take.
The first step is making sure that your cannabis is in a clean, sterile environment and isn’t being handled in a non-sterile way. The best way to guarantee this is to require all workers to wear hair and clothes covers, including boots and gloves, ensuring that no outside containments are coming in from any worker or visitor. Keep work areas disinfected.
It’s also vital for cultivators to make sure internal temperatures stay constant while airflow doesn’t. Stagnant air means stagnant moisture, allowing time for microbial growth to spread. Too much moisture is the cannabis plant’s worst enemy during cultivation, so keeping a close eye on your humidity levels is crucial. Storage of the product in a cool, dry environment (e.g., air-sealed) helps prevent infiltration by microbes.

Synthetic cannabinoids are anecdotally associated with more intense withdrawal compared to THC. [14] Although most of the risk is associated with the central nervous system, cardiovascular and metabolic events, acute kidney damage, and respiratory distress are also possible.
Current medical uses for synthetic cannabinoids are very limited: dronabinol (Marinol) is technically synthetic although it is identical to THC. Nabilone (Cesamet) is a synthetic analogue of THC that also acts as a partial agonist. These medications are used to alleviate the nausea of chemotherapy patients.
