b'by Health Canada, as well as the only CBG variety currently available in the country. The variety, expected to contain 14 per cent CBG in the field, was developed with partner Hemp Trading S.L.U. and the Polytechnic University of Valencia in Spain. The development of Panakeia was made possible through cross and selective breeding by inhibiting specific pathways of the biosynthetic route of cannabinoids, thus preventing the formation of THC, the psychoactive component of the plant, and increasing the accumulation of CBG, a cannabinoid that until now was only found in tiny amounts in the plant. That means a double achievement: not only has THC been totally eliminated, but the concentration of CBG has been boosted. The result is a strain specially developed for medicinal cannabis patients for its therapeutic properties as well as for researchers and pharmaceutical companies interested in exploiting the medicinal properties of cannabis.Jamie Ghossein is chief executive officer of Cannabis Orchards, based in Ottawa, Ont.
