An improved process for producing various types of cannabis extract from harvested cannabis wherein a quantity of harvested cannabis, which typically includes the inflorescence, floral leaves, and small stems of a flowering cannabis plants, is frozen and subjected to cryogenic grinding to produce pulverized cannabis. The pulverized cannabis is then subjected to alcohol extraction to produce an initial cannabis extract which is filtered to yield a remainder fraction and a filtrate. The remainder fraction potentiates the activity of cannabis formulations while the filtrate can be subjected to one of several forms of further processing according to the desired chemical profile of the final product.

A method of extracting one or more chemical extracts from a plant product includes mixing at least a first phytochemical-bearing part of a phytochemical plant product with an oil-bearing plant product, producing an oil mixture from the first phytochemical-bearing part and the oil-bearing plant product using a press device, and extracting at least a chemical extract from the oil mixture.

The invention relates to a personal care product for alleviating skin dryness, including facial skin dryness, body dryness, and breast skin dryness and for use as a massage oil. Embodiments of the personal care product include a formulation including cocoa butter, kokum butter, shea olein, and hyaluronic acid and/or cannabis oil. The personal care product may also include other plant-based glycerides, natural hormones, herbal roots and oils, amino acids, dietary supplements. The personal care product is substantially free of added water, alcohol, synthetic chemical, anti-microbial, and synthetic hormone.

Methods for the production of cannabichromene and related cannabinoid compounds are disclosed. The methods include: forming a reaction mixture comprising 3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dienal, a diamine, and olivetol or a related starting material; and maintaining the reaction mixture under conditions sufficient to form the desired product. Methods of the present disclosure may also include one-pot conversion of cannabichromene-type products to cannabinol-type products.

The invention provides a plurality of methods which may be employed as a single method or a plurality of sequential method steps in the isolation and purification of Cannabidiol from Hemp plants. It also provides methods for having a terpene-rich fraction as a byproduct of the method. Depending upon the ultimate objective, the individual method components may be used separately or combined with one or more method steps to accomplish the objectives.

The disclosure provides methods, formulations, and apparatus for making and using cannabinoid formulations.

Systems and methods for the treatment of plants, including decarboxylation, photo-oxidation, oxidation and/or combinations thereof, of cannabis and hemp plants and oils for biosynthesizing THCA, CBDA, and CBCA from CBGA are disclosed. A cannabinoid compound solution is fed into a cavitation zone of a controlled cavitation apparatus where the cannabinoid compound solution is subjected to cavitation and interaction with UV light for conversion of the cannabinoid compound solution to form a synthesized cannabinoid THC, CBD, CBC, CBG, CBNA, CBEA, CBLA product, or combinations thereof.
