Cannabinoid Index
9 cannabinoids profiled. THC, CBD, CBN, CBG, and beyond — science-backed data on each compound.
CBC
Cannabichromene (CBC) is the third most abundant cannabinoid in most cannabis cultivars. It is non-psychoactive and does not bind strongly to CB1 or CB2 receptors, instead interacting with TRPV1 and TRPA1 ion channels involved in pain perception and inflammation. Recent crop science research (2026) has demonstrated that CBC production is primarily genetically controlled, with high-CBC phenotypes remaining stable across multiple generations and diverse growing environments — a significant finding for breeding programs targeting CBC-rich cultivars.
CBD
Cannabidiol - non-psychoactive compound known for therapeutic properties
CBDA
Cannabidiolic acid - non-psychoactive precursor to CBD
CBG
Cannabigerol - the "mother cannabinoid" from which others are derived
CBN
Cannabinol - mildly psychoactive, often associated with aged cannabis
Delta-8 THC
A milder form of THC with less intense psychoactive effects
THC
Tetrahydrocannabinol - the primary psychoactive compound in cannabis
THCA
Tetrahydrocannabinolic acid - non-psychoactive precursor to THC
THCV
Tetrahydrocannabivarin - known for energizing effects and appetite suppression
