EXTRACTS OF CBD AND THC
The invention provides compositions and methods for the breeding, production, processing and use of specialty cannabis .
1 . A composition comprising:
a) a cannabidiol (CBD) content that is greater than 5.0% by weight;
b) a tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) content that is at least 3.0% by weight;
c) a terpene profile in which myrcene is not the dominant terpene, and wherein limonene is the most abundant terpene; and
d) a terpene oil content greater than 2.0% by weight;
wherein the terpene profile consists of terpinolene, alpha phellandrene, beta ocimene, carene, limonene, gamma terpinene, alpha pinene, alpha terpinene, beta pinene, fenchol, camphene, alpha terpineol, alpha humulene, beta caryophyllene, linalool, caryophyllene oxide, and myrcene terpenes, wherein the terpene oil content is the additive content of the terpenes in the terpene profile, and wherein the THC, CBD and terpene oil contents are measured by gas chromatography-flame ionization detection (GC-FID) and calculated based on weight of the composition.
2 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is a solvent reduced oil or a tincture.
3 . An edible product comprising the composition of claim 1 .
4 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is prepared from a single plant genotype.
5 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises at least 5.0% THC by weight.
6 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is not a cannabis plant part or cannabis cell.
7 . A method for producing a composition comprising cannabinoids, said method comprising the steps of:
a) providing cannabidiol (CBD), tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and limonene; and
b) combining the CBD, THC, and limonene to produce a composition comprising:
i) a CBD content that is greater than 5.0% by weight;
ii) a THC content that is at least 3.0% by weight;
iii) a terpene profile in which myrcene is not the dominant terpene, and wherein limonene is the most abundant terpene; and
iv) a terpene oil content greater than 2.0% by weight;
wherein the terpene profile consists of terpinolene, alpha phellandrene, beta ocimene, carene, limonene, gamma terpinene, alpha pinene, alpha terpinene, beta pinene, fenchol, camphene, alpha terpineol, alpha humulene, beta caryophyllene, linalool, caryophyllene oxide, and myrcene terpenes, wherein the terpene oil content is the additive content of the terpenes in the terpene profile, and wherein the THC, CBD and terpene oil contents are measured by gas chromatography-flame ionization detection (GC-FID) and calculated based on weight of the composition.
8 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the composition is a cannabis extract.
9 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises at least 10.0% THC by weight.
10 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises at least 20.0% THC by weight.
11 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises at least 30.0% THC by weight.
12 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises at least 40.0% THC by weight.
13 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises at least 50.0% THC by weight.
14 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises at least 10.0% CBD by weight.
15 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises at least 20.0% CBD by weight.
16 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises at least 30.0% CBD by weight.
17 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition comprises at least 40.0% CBD by weight.
18 . The composition of claim 6 , wherein the composition comprises at least 20.0% THC by weight.
19 . The composition of claim 6 , wherein the composition comprises at least 20.0% CBD by weight.
