Kief (from Arabic كيف kīf, "Joy, pleasure" [1] [2]), sometimes transliterated as keef, also known as "Dust" and "Chief" a.k.a cannabis crystals among other names, refers to the pure and clean collection of loose cannabis trichomes, which are accumulated by being sifted from cannabis flowers or buds with a mesh screen or sieve.
Delta-1, Delta-6, and Delta 3,4-Tetrahydrocannabinol are alternative names for Delta-9, Delta-8, and Delta-6a10a Tetrahydrocannabinol, respectively. [ 73 ] A 2023 paper seeking the regulation of cannabinoid terminology coined the term "derived psychoactive cannabis products" to accurately and usefully distinguish said products whilst excluding ...

[3] [4] Cannabidiol (CBD) is another major constituent of some cannabis plants. [5] Conversion of CBD to THC can occur when CBD is heated to temperatures between 250–300 °C (480 to 570°F), potentially leading to its partial transformation into THC. [6] At least 113 distinct cannabinoids have been isolated from cannabis. [7]
[9] [10] Inside the transcriptomes of glandular trichomes in the cannabis plant, the pathway for cannabinoid production takes place. [9] Beginning with the formation of 3,5,7-trioxododecaneoyl-COA by the condensation reaction between hexanoyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA , catalyzed by type III polyketide synthase (PKS), the product is then used to form ...
Flower bud of a Capsicum pubescens plant, with many trichomes Fossil stellate hair (trichome) probably of an oak, in Baltic amber; image is about 1 millimetre (1 ⁄ 32 inch) wide. Trichomes (/ ˈ t r aɪ k oʊ m z, ˈ t r ɪ k oʊ m z /; from Ancient Greek τρίχωμα (tríkhōma) ' hair ') are fine outgrowths or appendages on plants, algae ...
CBD heated to 175, [13] or 250–300 °C may partially be converted into THC. [14] Even at room temperature, trace amounts of THC can be formed as a contaminant in CBD stored for long periods in the presence of moisture and carbon dioxide in the air, with storage under inert gas required to maintain analytically pure CBD.
Trichomes usually reverse their polarity randomly with an average period on the order of minutes to hours. [100] [101] Many species also form a semi-rigid sheath that is left behind as a hollow tube as the trichome moves forward. When the trichome reverses direction, it can move back into the sheath or break out. [102] [3]
