CBGA: Cannabigerolic acid
CBGA or Cannabigerolic acid is often considered as the most important chemical in cannabis because it is ‘the mother of all cannabinoids’. CBGA produces other cannabinoids and chemical compounds, making it a precursor compound.
The ‘mother of all cannabinoids’ or origin of all cannabinoids is cannabigerolic acid. CBGA is a precursor molecule, which means that it transforms into, or creates, other cannabinoid precursor compounds such as CBDA and THCA.
