My current interest is in CBC containing, or possibly high-CBC strains. I am interested in its medical use, because it has specific immune related effects that are not shared by THC or CBD (specifically, it affects T helper cell signaling pathways involving JAK and STAT.)
So… whatcha got?! I have seen minor amounts of CBC included on some COA’s, but I would very much benefit from growing something that is known to have a few % at least of CBC.
What are your experiences with CBC containing flower or products? Do you notice anything different or unique?
The THCv thread really took off, I hope that the rest of OG appreciates this one just as much if not more. ![]()

This thread has a copy paste of some information linking CBC to being effective against S. aureus bacteria. Another thread mentioned that high CBC strains have a noticeably oily quality to them - perhaps CBC serves as a disease preventative in the plant from bacterial issues, and the oilyness lets it spread? Contrast to CBG which often is powdery on the surface.

I thought I had received some ACE from someone, I’ll have to take a second look through the archives… (PS here is a post from me over two years ago sandbagging CBG - Most Underrated Cannabinoid - #8 by RatsboggleBiological - if CBC has these unique immune modulating effects and knocks out pain and inflammation like CBG, but wont make me feel nearly as nauseous and sick, I am SO in.)
