Canopy Growth Review

October 29, 2019

Overview

Canopy Growth (previously known as Tweed Marijuana Inc) has the distinction of being the first CBD company traded publically in Canada. They continue to command the market by being the first and only cannabis company to claim membership in the global stock market index. In May 2018, they became the first cannabis company to achieve listing with the New York Stock Exchange. Their subsidiary Tweed took the forward step to introduce the standard concept for Compassionate Pricing which enables low-income patients the ability to purchase medical cannabis. In addition, the company supports the right to grow at home. They also market a large number of legal seeds to consumers. Canopy Growth has also partnered with a Fortune 500 alcoholic beverage supplier to create further cannabis-based products for their customers.

Canadians cannot purchase Canopy Growth products on their website but they can learn about them. The company’s sister site, Spectrum Therapeutics sells the products to those who are registered patients living in Canada.

Canopy Growth CBD Products

Manufacturing Process of Canopy Growth

Canopy Growth uses CO2 extraction to pull the cannabinoids from the plant’s fibers. The resin is then mixed using a food oil carrier to make it suitable for oral administration. If you want only a CBD product then the THC is guaranteed to be less than 0.3 percent and pulled from industrial hemp instead of marijuana as their other products are. They offer cannabis oils that contain all different ratios of THC and CBD to meet their medical clients’ needs.
