CANNABIS CHEMOTYPES I, II, III, IV, V
Cannabis is generally classified by type. With the passage of the 2018 Farm Bill, we are now moving into a world where type I varieties no longer dominate the cannabis market. In this new market, the cannabis type classification system is needed more than ever. Without a consistent language to differentiate the chemical makeup of cannabis chemotypes, consumers and industry insiders will struggle to communicate on the same level.
Type I is THC dominant.
Type II is 1:1 THC to CBD.
Type III is CBD dominant.
Type IV is CBG dominant.
Type V is cannabinoid free
Last but not least are the varins, which include THCV, CBDV, & CBGV. These are new minor-rich varieties of which additional chemotypes may need to be created.
(We produce Type 3, Type 4 and the Varins at our HEMPBEST farm and offer products made from these chemotypes).
