This isn't correct.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is NOT a byproduct of THC, it's a Cannabinoid in it's own right and works in conjuction with THC to influence the start and duration of the high.

Cannabinol (CBN) is a byproduct of THC and is produced via THC degradion from heat/air/light etc as you describe. It only has a maximum of about 10% THC content and therefore adds little to the 'high' over and above making the user feel 'sleepy'.

Neither are responsible for the 'stoney' part of the high nor the 'psychoactive' affect the THC has - that is produced soley by THC.
