Seedsman CBG #1 Cannabis Seeds from Seedsman Seeds

Seedsman CBG #1 is a photo-period strain which has been specially bred to produce very high levels of CBG (Cannabigerol), a cannabinoid which is usually present in low concentrations in typical cannabis samples.

CBG (cannabigerol) is the non-acid form of cannabigerolic acid (CBGA) which itself is the pre-cursor to the three main cannabinoid lines tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA), cannabidiolic acid (CBDA), and cannabichromenic acid (CBCA). Through the action of UV light or heat enzymes in the cannabis plant break down CBGA and in the majority of strains it is converted into either THCA and CBDA. It logically follows that the higher the CBG the lower the THC and CBD levels and vice versa.

CBG is very interesting as it is thought to offer great medical potential. It lowers intra-ocular pressure thereby helping to treat cases of glaucoma. Early research reveals promise as an anti-bacterial, it inhibits colo-rectal cancer cells in mice, has been shown to protect neurons in mice with Huntingdon's Disease, it has also been shown to increase appetite in rats and it reduces inflammation in cases of Crohn's Disease.

Seedsman CBG#1 grows in all environments, indoors, outdoors and in a greenhouse. Its indoor flowering time is between 10 - 12 weeks with yields expected to be between 400 - 500 gr/m2. Outdoors, northern hemisphere harvests will be ready towards the end of September - early October with each plant capable of producing up to 350 gr. Colourful displays of purple will affect some plants towards the end of flowering especially in the presence of cool night-time temperatures. Flavours are tangy, from the terpene limonene, with berry notes.

N.B. It is very important to germinate CBG #1 seeds at a constant temperature of 80° Fahrenheit (26-27° Celsius) for optimum viability. Avoid temperature swings and fluctuations.

CBG levels are 16.9% while THC is very low at 0.25%.

Strain FAQ

Is CBG psychoactive like THC?

CBG is not psychoactive and is said to offer possible benefits without THC's euphoric high. This calmness makes high CBG strains appealing to therapeutic cannabis users who want to avoid euphoric effects.

What's driving the demand for low-THC strains?

Low-THC strains are becoming popular in the cannabis world due to the increasing number of people who want the potential reported benefits of cannabis without the high THC trip. These strains are said to allow regular use while avoiding psychoactive pyrotechnics!

Are feminized strains known for having consistent cannabinoid levels?

Yes, consistent cannabinoid profiles are to be expected with feminised strains. These plants are genetically adjusted for qualities like THC and CBD production, so a more uniform output can be expected. This benefits those who need exact cannabinoid levels for medical or recreational use.

The economic and ecological benefits of these strains?

Early-flowering cultivars are said to be able to boost efficiency by allowing for an earlier harvest. This decreases crop loss from weather or pests. Operating with the seasons is also said to reduce the need for artificial lighting and heating, making it more sustainable and better for the environment.

What's an important element of the berry flavour?

?-Caryophyllene adds a spicy, peppery flavour to berries, increasing the flavour character. This spice's unique ability to interact with the body's endocannabinoid system adds richness to the sweet berry base's taste and aroma.
