But did you know that there are other cannabinoids that are believed to offer similar benefits? We don\u2019t blame you if you didn&#8217;t know &#8212; there hasn\u2019t been a lot of research put into these <a href=\"https:\/\/ministryofhemp.com\/blog\/cannabinoids-beyond-cbd\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"4599\">lesser-known cannabinoids<\/a>, which is why they don\u2019t get as much publicity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But with what we know so far, there are certain cannabinoids in <a href=\"https:\/\/industrialhempfarms.com\/cbd-hemp-flower\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noindex nofollow noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" data-lasso-id=\"4600\">hemp flowers<\/a> that also contribute to the health benefits of hemp. One of these cannabinoids is known as CBG or Cannabigerol. It\u2019s essentially the \u201cstem cell\u201d of cannabinoids, as all other cannabinoids originate from it. Read on to learn more about what makes this cannabinoid so special, and why you should try getting your hands on some as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Table of Contents<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><a href=\"#buy\">Where can I buy CBG hemp flower?<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#effects\">What are possible effects of CBG?&nbsp;<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#moreCBG\">Why isn\u2019t there more CBG in hemp flowers?<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<a name=\"buy\" data-lasso-id=\"4601\" href=\"#\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where can I buy CBG hemp flowers to smoke?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Because CBG has just gotten attention in recent years, there aren\u2019t that many CBG-heavy hemp flowers available in the market just yet. There may be hemp flowers with relatively high CBG, but they\u2019re typically full-spectrum strains that offer everything else in high doses too, including THC, so it may not be the best for people who don\u2019t want to be &#8220;couch-locked&#8221; for the CBG alone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, scientists are putting more effort into researching CBG, and we can expect to see hemp strains that feature larger percentages of the cannabinoid in the near future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"http:\/\/ministryofhemp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Smoking-CBG-shutterstock_592173896-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"CBG heavy hemp flower is still rare compared to other cannabinoid like CBD, but it's rising in popularity fast.

Special Sauce, a hemp flower bred by Upstate Hemp, boasts a CBG of over 2% (which is a lot for CBG dosage). There aren\u2019t many other choices available in the hemp scene as of now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, if you do end up getting CBG hemp flowers for yourself, be sure to be as discreet as you normally would for smoking any hemp or cannabis. This means not lighting it up in public areas to avoid scrutiny. While the 2018 Farm Bill legalized CBG hemp flowers and smoking it should be legal in many states, you can still get in trouble (or at the very least, a bunch of mean looks from others). So, depending on where you live, remember to use caution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a name=\"effects\" data-lasso-id=\"4602\" href=\"#\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are properties of CBG hemp flowers?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most prominent features of upcoming CBG Hemp strains is their extremely low doses of THC, with the promise of future strains having no THC at all. This is interesting to note especially when you consider the fact that hemp in general already sports lower THC levels than their &#8220;marijuana&#8221; counterparts. Minimizing THC levels in both CBD and CBG hemp flowers could help brand it as a medicinal substance, and not a recreational one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>While research is still very preliminary, CBG offers an enticing array of potential health benefits.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Experts believe CBG has properties very similar to CBD, though as mentioned earlier, the research is still in its very early stages. Right now, nothing\u2019s set in stone. With what we know so far, though, there are some pretty enticing benefits to consuming CBG. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are just a few of them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mood Regulator<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve been feeling a little bit stressed out lately, whether it be due to work or personal matters, CBG can help relieve that stress. Scientists believe CBG can <a rel=\"noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3165957\/pdf\/bph0163-1479.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" data-lasso-id=\"4603\">boost anandamide<\/a>, a compound in the body responsible that may promote feeling of bliss and overall well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, it\u2019s important to note that while these studies have been done, there\u2019s not enough evidence to support the positive effects of CBG concretely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Possible Pain Reliever<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you been experiencing some pains in your body recently? Maybe you\u2019ve overworked yourself a little bit, or you\u2019ve just had a hectic week. Well, researchers from the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) plan on researching the effects of minor <a rel=\"noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/grants.nih.gov\/grants\/guide\/notice-files\/NOT-AT-19-009.html\" target=\"_blank\" data-lasso-id=\"4604\">cannabinoids, including CBG, as a tool for managing pain<\/a>. We don\u2019t know for certain if CBG accomplishes this. However, the research is intriguing. We could someday be looking at a possible alternative to other painkillers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Anti-inflammatory Properties<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>CBD isn\u2019t the only anti-inflammatory cannabinoid in hemp. Researchers think CBG has these properties as well. One study found <a rel=\"nofollow noindex noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5388177\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-lasso-id=\"4605\">CBG helped irritable bowel disease in mice<\/a>, offering promise for humans as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As is often the case, a lot of research into CBG focuses on animals rather than humans. As research into hemp expands, we think this will change in the near future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a name=\"moreCBG\" data-lasso-id=\"4606\" href=\"#\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why are CBG concentrations so low in hemp?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>CBG isn\u2019t easy to cultivate, and it\u2019s even harder to extract large amounts of it. You see, CBG isn\u2019t all that concentrated in most strains, meaning that you won\u2019t be able to get more than around 2% of the biomass. This is what makes CBG isolate so expensive, as it takes a lot of biomass to get a good enough dosage worth using.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"http:\/\/ministryofhemp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Hemp-Flower-shutterstock_541490269-1.jpg\" alt=\"A small pile of CBG hemp flower buds, photographed against a white background.\" class=\"wp-image-60651\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ministryofhemp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Hemp-Flower-shutterstock_541490269-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/ministryofhemp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Hemp-Flower-shutterstock_541490269-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ministryofhemp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Hemp-Flower-shutterstock_541490269-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption>We don&#8217;t yet know all the potential benefits of smoking CBG hemp, but the initial research is intriguing.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Add the fact that the extraction process of CBG itself is both expensive and difficult, and you\u2019ve got a recipe for a cannabinoid that shows promise but is too expensive to work with at the moment. We wouldn\u2019t expect to see a lot of CBG hitting the popular markets anytime soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily for CBG enthusiasts, however, there\u2019s hope. Major companies are starting to take notice of the growing CBG trend, and are now putting efforts into developing new strains that are high in CBG. Hopefully, we won\u2019t have to wait that long, but for now, CBG will remain as the cannabinoid with the most potential out of the other lesser-known compounds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, you\u2019ve already tried out THC or CBD, and want to know more on how to smoke other cannabinoids, such as CBG hemp flowers.&nbsp; In fact, most people only know hemp flowers for their large doses of CBD.
