Cannabigerol Acetate
(Acetylated CBG)
My Opinion
CBGo is very like CBG in many ways but with a few key differences. The main one being how the focus feels. In a very similar way to THCVo, the focus feels "aimless" and more like I want to daydream for a long time than do any kind of work. The other main difference is that the come up and come down are very noticeably more tapered and gentle. Sometimes in a blend, CBG can make you feel a lot of stimulation and face tingles very quickly, whereas CBGo takes its time kicking in and it just kind of slowly fades out.
Overall, I think the main best use for CBGo is for "wake-up" blends. Not necessarily a "time for work" type blend, but that kind of stimulation and focus is a very nice and gentle way to wake up.
Also, if CBG causes you anxiety, CBGo would be a good one to try out instead.
What can CBG do for a blend?
-
Dreaminess
-
Tingles in the face
-
Stimulation throughout the high
-
Potentiation

Can anyone tell me if their CBGo has an odor to it? Mine smells kinda like old oil. Seller said it is 1.5 yrs old, do not worry. Effects are okay.
It seems that vaping THCo can produce toxic KETENE gas, even at low voltage or temp. 😞

Dude why did everywhere stop selling this?
I love your description of the "aimless" and daydreaming qualities of CBGo. I couldn't really verbalize what I was feeling, but that is exactly it. I enjoy it, especially for thinning out blends - I've been using it around 3% of my blends and mainly with HHC (my go-to) as a base.
