THC vs CBD, answered

What is the difference between THC and CBD?

THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is the cannabinoid that produces the intoxicating high, while CBD, or cannabidiol, is non-intoxicating and does not. Both come from the same cannabis plant and both appear on the lab panel of products at Vegas Treehouse.

Does CBD get you high?

No. CBD is non-intoxicating, so on its own it does not produce the high associated with THC. Many CBD products still contain a small amount of THC, so check the percentages on the label if that matters to you.

How is THC or CBD content shown on a label?

Flower, vapes, and concentrates list THC and CBD as a percentage by weight, while edibles list them in milligrams per piece or per package. Every product at our Las Vegas store carries this lab-tested panel.

What does a 1:1 product mean?

A 1:1 product contains roughly equal amounts of THC and CBD by the label. You will also see CBD-forward ratios like 2:1 or higher, which simply means there is more CBD than THC in that product.

Where can I see THC and CBD numbers before buying?

Every item on the live Vegas Treehouse menu lists its THC and CBD content, and the same panel is on the physical package in store. Ask a budtender at 4660 South Decatur Boulevard if you want help reading it.

Two cannabinoids, one lab panel to read.

How do I use the THC and CBD numbers?

Start with the format you want, then compare the THC and CBD percentages or milligrams across a few options. If a product is new to you, note the total THC so you know how strong it is, and check whether there is any CBD in the ratio. The numbers are printed on every label, and a Vegas Treehouse budtender can walk you through them.

Read the label, then read the room.
