Hemp and cannabinoids: CBD, CBG and how our hemp is made
In short: Hemp (Cannabis sativa) contains many cannabinoids, of which CBD is one of the best known. Here we look at what cannabinoids are, how hemp is grown in Slovenia and how hemp wellness products are made ā as general education, not health advice.
Hemp and its cannabinoids
Hemp (Cannabis sativa) is one of the oldest cultivated plants. It contains a wide range of naturally occurring compounds called cannabinoids, the best known of which are CBD (cannabidiol) and CBG (cannabigerol). Industrial hemp is grown with very low levels of THC, in line with legal limits.
What is CBD?
CBD is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid, which means it does not cause intoxication. It is the subject of ongoing scientific research. In wellness products it is valued as a full-spectrum plant extract obtained from hemp.
How our hemp is grown
Our hemp is grown on a Slovenian estate, harvested and processed locally. We use our own extraction, which allows us to control the quality and the cannabinoid content of the final extract.
