Treehouse.Farm grows for Cannabidivarin (CBDV) a non-psychoactive cannabinoid that is found in the cannabis plant. It is similar to cannabidiol (CBD), but it has a different chemical structure. CBDV does not produce the “high” associated with THC, but it has been shown to have a number of potential benefits, including:

  • Anti-epileptic effects: CBDV has been shown to be effective in reducing the frequency and severity of seizures in people with epilepsy.
  • Anti-inflammatory effects: CBDV has anti-inflammatory properties that may be helpful in treating conditions such as arthritis, Crohn’s disease, and ulcerative colitis.
  • Anti-nausea effects: CBDV can help to reduce nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy and other medical conditions.
  • Pain relief: CBDV has been shown to be effective in reducing pain in people with a variety of conditions, including chronic pain, neuropathic pain, and muscle pain.
  • Anxiety relief: CBDV can help to reduce anxiety and improve sleep quality.
  • Mood-boosting effects: CBDV may help to improve mood and reduce symptoms of depression.

CBDV is a relatively new compound, and more research is needed to fully understand its potential benefits. However, the available evidence suggests that CBDV may be a safe and effective treatment for a variety of conditions. We’ve been growing for CBDV for more than five years.
