Cannabis, CBG Articles

What is CBG?

No matter your relationship with Cannabis you have likely heard the acronyms THC and CBD, the two most famous compounds in this magnificent plant, though were you aware these cannabinoids were just two out of hundreds?

Considered a minor cannabinoid by percentage (occurs at about 1%), yet a major player when you take a look at it, Cannabigerol (CBG) is underrated but not for long. ATLRx recognizes the potential in CBG and is dedicated to extending education and resources for your growth on this cannabis journey. This is a world that is ever-evolving, which is incredibly exciting as new scientific studies are completed to bring light and attention to natures most beautiful plant.

Key Takeaways

• Emergence of CBG as a Significant Cannabinoid: Cannabigerol (CBG), although only present at about 1% in cannabis plants, plays a crucial role in the plant’s chemistry and has potential benefits as an anti-microbial and anti-bacterial compound.
• ATLRx’s Commitment to CBG Education and Product Offerings: ATLRx is focused on expanding education and providing resources about CBG, illustrating its commitment to fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of this minor cannabinoid.
• Development of High-CBG Cannabis Strains: Through selective breeding, cultivators have developed strains like Jack Frost and White Cap, which contain significantly higher percentages of CBG, catering to users seeking specific possible supportive effects.
• Integration of Science in Cannabis Product Development: The ongoing scientific exploration into cannabis and its components, like CBG, is driving the development of premium, specialized products at ATLRx, enhancing consumer choices and experiences.

The openness towards cannabis has truly created a new world of opportunities, as we have seen during the emergence of these minor cannabinoids. Cannabigerol is an anti-microbial/anti-bacterial compound.

Despite being naturally occurring under one percent in cannabis plants, some breeders have been experimenting growing plants with a naturally higher CBG concentration.

Their success has brought us a few premium flower strains that offer a hefty percentage of CBG, two of which can be found here at ATLRx.

Jack Frost is a well known strain that offers 14.76% cannabigerol (CBG) and .24% tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), a delightful flower on its own or combine with your current favorite strain to increase the potential perks. These buds are noticeably different than the others we offer, a bright sweet smell accompanies these lightweight, extra frosty nugs (hence the name Jack Frost). This flower does not have any psychoactive potency, whereas our White Cap flower does. High in CBG as well as Delta 8 THC, White Cap is a beautiful flower to keep in your lineup. Testing at 6.81% CBG and 15.12% Delta 8 THC. Delightfully potent, White Cap has emerged onto the shelves and into peoples hearts. White Caps signature smell contains notes of chamomile, cinnamon, and pine that blend together to create a bright floral aroma.

As the exploration of science and cannabis continues, we strive to always offer you the most premium products and up to date information, we are very proud to expand our product base and include more cannabinoids than ever before, *(sharing our caring on your well being.)*
