Below are the 6 best CBG flower strains, how they work, and why you should try them.

How is the CBG Flower Different from a CBD Bud?

Before we dive into the 6 best CBG flower strains, let’s get some terminology straightened out. The CBG flower is not the same as the CBD bud for several reasons.

CBG flower contains a large amount of CBG (cannabigerol) but usually very little of any other cannabinoid. This compound is vital for forming all of the other cannabinoids, including CBD and THC, and is harvested from young hemp plants THC, the chemical that makes you high. CBD (cannabidiol), which is separated from THC to provide provides health benefits such as soothing nausea, reducing stress, and boosting appetite.

Hemp is also not the same as marijuana. While both of these plants come from the sativa plant, the former has little THC (under 0.3%) and the latter has a lot of THC (upwards of 25% these days).
