Hive account@medicalmarijuana this was very informative and a subject that doesn't get a ton of attention - thanks for posting.

One question for your regarding this excerpt:

"CBC functions in a very similar way to THC and CBD and also has the same origins. They all stem from cannabigerolic acid (CBGA). This is another compound that the cannabis plant produces and is the precursor to three major cannabinoids: cannabidiolic acid (CBDA), tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA), and cannabichromenic acid (CBCA). As like THC and CBD, CBC is produced through an enzymatic conversion of the precursor CBG (cannabigerol). Cannabigerolic acid (CBGA) needs to be cyclized by the enzyme CBCA synthase to give CBCA. From there, heat and time will cause CBCA to decarboxylate into CBC."

I know THC and CBD are formed from decarboxylating THCA and CBDA, but are you saying that THCA and CBDA are produced from CBGA? Do you know which of the links you posted discusses this? I'm interested to learn more.

Thanks again!
