What it is
The middle path: keeps the minor cannabinoids and terpenes of full spectrum, but with THC removed to non-detectable levels. For people who want the entourage effect but cannot have any THC — drug-tested professions, athletes, the cautious.
How it's made
Starts as a full-spectrum extract, then goes through chromatography or flash separation to selectively remove THC while preserving the rest. More processing = usually a higher price.
How it's used
Sublingual, like any oil: under the tongue, 60–90 seconds. Onset 15–45 minutes.
Dosing it honestly
Same protocol as full spectrum: 10–20 mg/day to start, titrate up slowly. Without THC there is no psychoactive ceiling to worry about — the limit is your wallet and your response.
