When looking for cannabis products to target specific needs, there’s some extensive research to be done.

In fact, most consumers don’t fully understand the products they’re purchasing until experiencing them and seeing how they impact the mind and body.

This article will discuss the differences between Whole-Plant CBD oil and Flower-Only CBD oil to help you make more informed purchases.

If you’re confused on what whole-plant and flower-only means, it’s essentially the term for extracting CBD from the hemp plant but through different processes and methods.

CBD, cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavinoids all come from the hemp plant’s flower, not the stalk, stem, or leaves.

We’ve never been a big fan of whole-plant CBD because they’re often made by big corporate companies that focus on mass production and profits.

Even though it’s not beneficial, these companies use the entire hemp plant because they are still tied to the stigma of the psychoactive compound THC in hemp flowers.

Using a whole-plant method doesn’t matter if these companies will process the extract into CBD isolate or broad-spectrum CBD. If they use the whole-plant extract for full-spectrum CBD, the result is a bitter, grassy taste that’s often masked by additional flavors.

If you’re familiar with cannabis, you know that the leaves, seeds, and stems do not contain cannabinoids. Because of this, it should be a given that full-spectrum CBD products made with whole-plant methods are rather unnecessary. 

The term flower-only comes from Cornbread Hemp, building on 250 years of Kentucky hemp tradition. Cornbread wanted to create this term to emphasize its unique and beneficial process that removes the flowers from the hemp plant before extracting their full-spectrum CBD oil.

This process allows Cornbread Hemp’s CBD oil to avoid carrying leftover chlorophyll and other plant matter that’s often covered up with additional flavors. 

Because Cornbread Hemp went out of its way to create a full-spectrum CBD oil using only hemp flowers, we recommend our readers try it for themselves with Cornbread Hemp’s Whole Flower USDA Organic CBD Oil.

Best for nighttime use, this CBD oil is a high-quality full-spectrum flower-only extract meant to offer the benefits of CBD how it was naturally intended.
