cannabinol

Aged hemp compound

Cannabinol is a compound found in cannabis, formed as THC degrades over time through oxidation and exposure to light.

It has mild psychoactive effects—much weaker than THC—and is being studied for potential sedative and anti-inflammatory properties.

Aged cannabis contains more cannabinol than fresh material.

Often abbreviated CBN.
