Over the last few decades, a growing body of evidence has increasingly showed the therapeutic capabilities of ''[[Cannabis]]'' plants. These capabilities have been attributed to the specialized secondary metabolites stored in the glandular [[trichome]]s of female [[inflorescence]]s, mainly [[Cannabinoid|phytocannabinoids]] and [[terpenoid]]s. The accumulation of these metabolites in the flower is versatile and influenced by a largely unknown regulation system, attributed to genetic, developmental, and environmental factors. As ''Cannabis'' is a [[Dioecy|dioecious]] plant, one main factor is fertilization after successful pollination. Fertilized flowers are considerably less potent, likely due to changes in the contents of phytocannabinoids and terpenoids.

"Delta-8-THC: Delta-9-THC’s nicer younger sibling?"

Products containing delta-8-tetrahydrocannabinol8-THC) became widely available in most of the United States following the 2018 Farm Bill, and by late 2020, those products were core products of hemp processing companies, especially where delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol9-THC) use remained illegal or required medical authorization. Research on experiences with Δ8-THC is scarce, and some state governments have prohibited it because of this lack of knowledge. We conducted an exploratory study addressing a broad range of issues regarding Δ8-THC to inform policy discussions and provide directions for future systematic research. (Full article...)
