Frequently Asked Questions
Legal Information
The often-quoted “0.2% THC” figure is the limit for licensed industrial hemp cultivation, not for finished consumer products. Under the Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2001, a consumer product containing any controlled cannabinoid (such as THC) is only outside the controlled-drugs prohibitions if it meets the “exempt product” definition — including no more than 1 mg of the controlled substance per container and no readily recoverable THC (see the Home Office factsheet). Cannabinoid content is stated on each of our listings and Certificates of Analysis are available on request. This is general information, not legal advice — read our plain-English guide to UK THC law and check the rules where you live before ordering.
Medical cannabis is legal in the UK but is strictly controlled and only available through prescription from a specialist doctor. It is prescribed by specialist doctors for specific conditions; GPs generally cannot prescribe it. The products sold on this site are not medicines and are not a substitute for prescribed treatment.
Yes, CBD products are permitted for athletes by most sports organisations as long as they contain no THC. Always check the specific regulations of your sport.
Do not drive after using any product that may impair you. It is an offence in the UK to drive with THC in your system above the specified limit, and some cannabinoid products can produce impairing effects. Check the label and, if in doubt, do not drive.
There is limited research on CBD use during pregnancy. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before using CBD while pregnant.
How to Use CBD Flower
CBD flower is derived from hemp and contains high levels of cannabidiol (CBD) without the psychoactive effects of THC. You can smoke, vape, or infuse CBD flower into oils or edibles. However the sale of CBD Flower for human consumption (including smoking) is illegal, so we sell CBD Flower for aromatherapy purposes only.
Raw hemp flower falls within the definition of cannabis under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 regardless of its THC percentage, so its legal position in the UK is not the same as that of CBD oils or gummies. Please read our guide to UK THC law and satisfy yourself about the rules that apply where you live before ordering flower products.
Vaping CBD flower provides faster absorption of CBD and avoids the combustion process, making it a healthier alternative to smoking. However the sale of CBD Flower for human consumption is illegal and we only sell CBD Flower for aromatherapy.
Yes, CBD flower can be steeped in tea, but combining it with fats like milk or butter can help release the CBD effectively. However the sale of CBD Flower for human consumption is illegal and we only sell CBD Flower for aromatherapy.
For an energy boost, look for CBD flower strains high in Limonene, such as Sour Diesel or Super Lemon Haze.
CBD Hash
CBD hash is a concentrated form of cannabidiol made from hemp. It is typically used for vaping, smoking, or making edibles. However the sale of CBD Hash for human consumption is illegal and we only sell CBD Hash for aromatherapy.
Yes, CBD hash is commonly used at night for its calming properties. Strains like Afghan Hash are often recommended.
Yes, CBD hash can be mixed with CBD oil for stronger effects. This is popular for cooking or making topicals.
CBD Gummies
CBD gummies are edible products infused with cannabidiol. They offer a convenient and tasty way to consume CBD, with consistent dosages in each gummy.
The ideal dosage varies, but most people start with one gummy (10-25mg) per day and adjust as needed.
CBD gummies typically take 30 minutes to 2 hours to take effect, depending on your metabolism, the dosage, and whether you’ve eaten recently.
Yes, CBD gummies can be taken daily as part of a wellness routine. It’s important to monitor how your body responds and adjust the dosage as needed.
CBD gummies are not recommended for children without the guidance of a healthcare professional. Always consult a doctor before giving CBD to minors.
Yes, CBD gummies can be combined with other CBD products such as CBD oil or capsules. However, it’s important to monitor your total daily intake to avoid exceeding your tolerance level.
H4-CBD
H4-CBD is a hydrogenated form of CBD, offering enhanced bioavailability and potentially stronger effects compared to regular CBD.
H4-CBD undergoes a hydrogenation process that modifies its molecular structure, potentially enhancing its absorption and effects compared to standard CBD.
H4-CBD may provide stronger anti-inflammatory and calming effects due to its improved bioavailability, making it a good option for people who find regular CBD less effective.
No, H4-CBD is not psychoactive. It does not cause the high associated with THC and remains a non-intoxicating cannabinoid.
H4-CBD can be consumed in the same ways as regular CBD, including as oils, tinctures, gummies, or topicals. Always follow the dosage recommendations provided by the manufacturer.
H4-CBD is a hydrogenated derivative of CBD. In its May 2025 review of semi-synthetic cannabinoids, the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs (ACMD) said there was insufficient evidence to recommend controlling hydrogenated CBD derivatives such as H4-CBD under the Misuse of Drugs Act at present, while recommending that their status under the Psychoactive Substances Act 2016 be established. The position can change; see our UK legal guide for the current summary. This is not legal advice.
Yes, H4-CBD can be combined with regular CBD products. This allows users to potentially benefit from both forms of the compound and the entourage effect.
CBG
CBG, or cannabigerol, is a minor cannabinoid found in hemp plants. It is often referred to as the “mother of cannabinoids” and is known for its potential anti-inflammatory properties.
CBG has been studied for its potential to support gut health, reduce inflammation, and act as a neuroprotectant. It is also being researched for antibacterial properties.
While both CBG and CBD are non-intoxicating cannabinoids, CBG is often referred to as the precursor to other cannabinoids. It is found in smaller quantities and may have more targeted effects on inflammation and the digestive system.
Early research suggests that CBG may have calming effects similar to CBD, making it potentially beneficial for managing anxiety.
CBG can be found in products such as tinctures, oils, capsules, and infused topicals. Some full-spectrum CBD products also contain trace amounts of CBG.
CBG (cannabigerol) is not itself listed as a controlled drug in the UK. As with CBD products, a finished CBG product containing any controlled cannabinoid (for example trace THC) must meet the “exempt product” definition in the Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2001 to fall outside controlled-drugs restrictions. See our UK legal guide; this is not legal advice.
Yes, CBG and CBD are often combined in products to enhance their effects through the entourage effect, where cannabinoids work together for improved results.
