CBG
Cannabigerol — considered the "mother cannabinoid" from which other cannabinoids originate.
Detailed Explanation
CBG (Cannabigerol) is a precursor substance from which the plant forms many other cannabinoids during growth. It is usually only present in small amounts in mature flowers. CBG is non-psychoactive and is the focus of current preclinical research, including its antibacterial and neuroprotective properties.
