🌿 Understanding THC vs CBD: What’s the Difference? — The420 Crew

As the cannabis industry continues to grow, one of the most common questions we hear at Acew Store is: “What’s the difference between THC and CBD?” These two cannabinoids are the most well-known compounds found in cannabis—and understanding them is essential for making informed choices about your wellness and lifestyle.

Let’s break it down.
