Hash...CBD!

Sometimes the hash (or rather, the hash oil) is made extracting the cannabis resin from the weed with some suitable solvent. The CBD is more easily extracted than the THC, so if one makes hash hastily, letting the weed soaking in the solvend for too short amounts of time (less than 1 weed for acetone), the amount of CBD extracted is larger than the amount of THC extracted, so the resulting hash is richer in CBD than in THC.
Yet, the product of the oxidation of the THC is not CBD, but CBN (cannabinol), which has a confusing effect. Its different from the CBD and THC effects. It doesnt make you couchlocked, stoned, like the CBD, nor high, like the THC, but only confused, messed up, like if someting were not quite right, but you cant point exactly what it is.
The oxidation happens much faster with the hash, because it is in direct contact with the air, while in the weed the THC is safely stored into the plant material which keeps it from the contact with the air. Freshly extracted hash oil is brown, but it turns to black in a few days, and the change in the color shows the oxidation of it. Fortunately, the oxidation happens mainly on its surface, so usually the inner parts of it still contains enough THC/CBD to ensure a good high.Coelho Reviewed by Coelho on . Hash...CBD! Im a smoker who at times can be very uneasy, uncomfortavle or anxious even when not smoking. Iv been smoking weed the past few months and notice its hit and miss with the anxiousness or panic. Iv been told lately that hash(no matter what strain) always contains more CBD than the usual weed strains. simply because of the maturing and oxidisation. Basically not as fresh as bud. CBD apparantly dulls the high thc effects of anxiousness and actually helps sedate. Is this true? Im jus after Rating: 5
