CANNABIS MAKES LIFE BETTER

When cannabis plants are growing, they produce a range of cannabinoids depending on the specific strain of the plant. Almost all of these cannabinoids begin as carboxylic acids such as THCA, then convert into non-acidic compounds through the process of decarboxylation or “decarbing.” The acidic version of each cannabinoid typically has different effects from its decarboxylated form. 

Other cannabinoid acids you may encounter are 

  • CBGA (Cannabigerolic acid) 

  • CBDA (Cannabidiolic acid) 

  • CBCA (Cannabichromenenic acid) 

  • CBGVA (Cannabigerovarinic acid) 

  • THCVA (Tetrahydrocanabivarinic acid) 

  • CBDVA (Cannabidivarinic acid) 

  • CBCVA (Cannabichromevarinic acid)
