What does CBN do?
Cannabinol (CBN) is produced when THC degrades over time, and is best known for its purported sedative properties. If you’ve ever had old weed that made you pass out right away, that may be because much of the THC degraded into CBN.
That being said, some cannabinoid scientists have recently stated that there isn’t enough concrete evidence of CBN being an effective sleep aid— only anecdotal data. But you will find that many users of CBN gummies or tinctures swear by their efficacy, including many people on our staff. If you’re having problems sleeping, give CBN products a try and see if they work for you! Otherwise, consider trying a 1:1 edible or tincture because THC will help you fall asleep and CBD will help you stay asleep.
