CBG (cannabigerol) is called the "mother cannabinoid" because its acid-form precursor CBGa is the upstream molecule from which most other cannabinoids are enzymatically synthesized during plant growth. By the time cannabis reaches harvest, most CBGa has already converted into CBDa, THCa, or CBCa via the plant's enzymes. This is why mature cannabis typically contains less than 1% CBG. However, some cultivators have developed CBG-dominant cultivars that produce 10%+ CBG by preventing the enzymatic conversion. CBG is non-psychoactive and under research for anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and neuroprotective activity. Commercial CBG products are typically marketed alongside CBD for wellness use. At Rosin Royale, we don't currently press CBG-dominant cultivars; our catalog is THCa-focused.
