NO. YOU have no idea what YOU are talking about. CW doesn't sell raw flowers, lol. They sell extracts. Big difference. This is where being truly vertically integrated is a benefit.

Furthermore, the entire point of legalizing hemp for American farmers was so that farmers could breed cutting edge American hemp strains. CVSI trying to get the Feds to only allow U.S. farmers to use low cannabinoid European fiber strains is a disgrace to the American Hemp industry. WTF kind of member of the "U.S. Hemp Roundtable" wants everyone to only use European hemp?

Most folk refuse to accept the fact that FB18 was to introduce hemp products back into industry, inclusive of the fiber use in hempcrete, paper, fabrics, *lumber*. The Industrial hemp as originally envisioned in the bill was the naturally non-THC product. But THC strains were cultivated to lower THC and thus a higher CBD content.
These new strains are not better in quality over FSHE derived from Stalk hemp. But some folks feel there is a difference and thus share their opine.
What I see is many safety tests coming from PlusCBD products; from an *inferior* strain, from a proprietary process, with unique Mass Spectrometer testing. This translates into other products not being able to piggy back off the work done in CV Sciences. As it also implies CV Sciences cannot piggy back off of others.
CVSI is on the right path, and a unique path. The competitors have their own path to tread. The bottom line is - Do the labels accurately reflect what is in the product? That will be telling.

No. There is a reason why hemp has so many varieties/strains. It not only depends what end product you want to have but also depends where you plant particular seed. European hemp may not grow well in the US or even if it does, you may end up with different composition of full spectrum.. it takes years to develop consistency. Consistency of full spectrum product is very important imo I strongly encourage you to read about hemp farming on some other websites and not only stuck on CVSI vs CWEB.
There is more and more good articles about farming and which direction this industry is heading.. I don't think you realize how advanced actually are some farmers that specifies in CBD rich hemp. It's not only CWEB out there. There is a few good ones as well that understand hemp plant and breeding.
there is really a lot of intersting info out there. Just Google around.
