CBD

Read that the group that is taking up marijuana is those over a certain age. It is good for those aches and pains.
Starting to believe that.

CHAS

This year farmers in all states can grow non-THC cannabis.
Who is going to check to see what sort of cannabis is being grown?
In a few years it may be growing everywhere.
Who wants to be among those testing for THC?

I think, if it comes from hemp, it's legal everywhere. Has to have below a certain amount of THC in it.

Because CBD from hemp has no psychoactive effects, the purchase, sales, or possession of hemp CBD products are completely legal in all 50 States.

Curiously, Nina

Nina, I think you can probably get CBD oil in any of the millions of pot shops here now.

One of the moms brought some to Crafty Moms weekend; I tried a little on my forearms where I get tendinitis. It felt good, but didn’t take all of the burn away. I should probably try it more than once! And yes, it would go directly on your knees.

I'm definitely going to try. And yes, we have several friendly neighborhood pot shops around here.

Am I the only one here that didn't know what CBD was? Meant?

Cost is rather high.

C is pure easy to grow...now just to get some proper seeds!!!

And I still don't, I haven't yet googled it. But I think it has something to do with pot.

CBD = Cannabidiol, contained in any cannabis plant. It has no high.

THC = tetrahydrocannabinol is the compound in cannabis that is associated with getting high.

They are different (but related) molecules that act differently in the brain. Because they are different molecules, they attach to different receptors and have different effects.

The article is well done but sounds a bit breathless. Imagine Elizabeth Warren reading it and see what I mean.

I just got a circular in the mail from Bed, Bath and Beyond. They're advertising CBD oil, roll on, and diffuser oil.

Looks like this stuff is here to stay.

Love this succinct description.

Why isn‘t CBD more commonly used? Is CBD habit-forming or addictive?
