Apex Strain Cannabinoids
| THC | Tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, is a major cannabis chemical compound. It is a psychoactive element that stimulates dopamine release and induces euphoria or happiness. THC-rich strains may be helpful with such conditions as lack of appetite, chronic pains , etc. It is considered to be the primary active marijuana component. | 20.5 - 25.5% |
| CBD | Cannabidiol, or CBD, is a major compound in cannabis, which is non-psychoactive. It is also proved to counteract the side effects of the second major component THC. CBD is widely used for medicinal purposes in rubs, oils and so on. It is helpful in muscle pain cases, may treat arthritis and migraines. Even Greeks used it against pain, while Queen Victoria applied it to get rid of menstrual cramps. | 0.05 - 0.48% |
| CBC | Cannabichromene, or CBC, is a minor cannabinoid, meaning that its quantity in cannabis is quite little. Though it has the same origin as CBD and THC, it is different in functions. Without any psychoactive effects, it is an efficient cannabis compound in combating acne and depression. CBC produces analgesic, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. | 0.32 - 0.69% |
| CBG | Cannabigerol, or CBG, is one of the minor cannabis compounds in adult plants. On the other hand, young ones contain a lot of this antibacterial and anti-inflammatory component. During the growth, CBG is converted into different cannabinoids, mostly THC and CBD. The compound itself increases appetite and decreases eye pressure. | 0.14 - 1.36% |
| CBN | Cannabinol, or CBN, is a trace element in cannabis that is considered to be mildly psychoactive. It appears from oxidation THC, exposed to light and heat. CBN is mostly contained in old cannabis and in traditional hashish. It is effective against insomnia, bacterial infections and appetite loss. | 0.3 - 0.19% |
| THCV | Tetrahydrocannabivarin, or THC-V, is a compound contained in cannabis in trace amounts. Even though it is close to THC molecularly, it is different in effects. This compound may be psychoactive only in large amounts. THC-V reduces blood sugar, controls appetite, stimulates bone growth, etc. African Sativa strains are the richest in THC-V. | 0.44 - 0.54% |

If I were going for what sets my soul on fire, I'd probably take strains with a higher CBD content. I am not saying Apex is not good, all I am saying is it doesn't tickle my fancy.
so imagine this, its a sunny afternoon and you are relaxing on a beach with one of these Apex joints. Even the swim afterwards would be exhilirating. What I love most about them is the high THC levels.
I read someplace that Apex has some link to the Kush strains and I see why. The moment I smoked it I could feel this overwhelming euphoria that was pretty damn good if I do say so myself.
Its been 70 days since I planted this bad boy and I can see the buds coming along nicely.
Compared to Tropimango, I'd say this one has a lesser intriguing taste.
The thing with indica strains is that I get too drowsy after a few hits. This Apex strain was somehow different though. The high lasted for hours and afterwards I was on the pitch playing with a lot of energy.
I can taste sound! Turtle island is shifting. Delicious!
It’s my fisrt lavender-flavored cannabis and it feels like calmness fills me from the inside
I felt as if I was covered with a wave of pleasure and happiness !!!
Very cool mix of flavor and good effect
Apex is my favorite strain! It feels like pure Indica to me. cannabis is undoubtedly a heavy-hitter, it won me over with the ability to relax both body and mind, but at the same time I didn’t lose the clarity. As a result, this high is quite gentle. After
it was terrible, I began to worry about everything. I didnt like it at all.
