What do you guys think of this site? I saw this guy on youtube. He's definitely out there selling and cashing in on the cbd boom... I wonder what the product is like,, It has almost no THC. Just hemp oil high in cbd.

I'm interested in this product to recommend to friends with anxiety and pain.. Please post your thoughts so I don't waste $30 :)

Those scoundrels! Plus they charge $8 to ship.. I guarantee that shipping on 1 gram is about $1 with packaging..

I know this is a little old but I was wondering the same thing. No way I trust any vendor selling the stuff. Any serious company that was out to actually help people would be spending their time trying to get real medicine out there and spreading awareness, not just taking money from desperate sick people!

I ordered this crap and that's exactly what it is CRAP..
This is their website.. http://www.hempremedies.com/cbd-vape-oil.html In my opinion nobody should be fooled by their advertising. I can't see where it has any benefit at all and it ruined my vape tank. Had to throw it out..

Do not buy anything from Hemp Remedies and HempRemedies.com This is a scam.

Hemp Remedies is a scam. Hemp Remedies does not work. Hemp Remedies CBD Oil is a Ripoff.

I am not sure why you are saying that sunny747. I am a legal grower in Colorado for 6 years and grow mostly high cbd strains. I looked at the Hemp Remedies website and they are selling very common, well know brands. They may be more expensive than some I really don't know but they seem legitimate to me.

Al Gore I am not sure where you are getting your information but CBD has many more medicinal and therapeutic properties than THC which really only has 4 killing cancer cells, nausea, pain and appetite stimulation. CBD has over 24 including anti-inflammatory, anti, seizure, anti-anxiety. Google it and you can see the list. Furthermore, hempseed oil is completely different than hemp oil. Hempseed oil is readily available on Amazon etc. and may be a good dietary additive but it is not a medicine. Hemp oil is a CBD extraction and not derived from seed. Maybe you have those confused.

My problem with these companies is that it is not very strong for the price so it is a bit of a rip-off. There has also been some evidence that testing does not support their claims of how much cbd is really in the product. They have been warned to correct this and I am not sure if they have. Certainly, If there is any way you could make it you would save A LOT of money. There are many recipes out there.

Hope that helps.

I'm not knocking CBD. That's what got me interested in growing. I too grow high CBD strains. I think it's an exciting field of research. I did however watch several videos from Hemp Remedies. I'd have to watch them again to be sure, but I think I felt that their claims and marketing went overboard, but I thought it would be worth $40 bucks or so to try their product. I personally found no value to their product. Without being able to test the levels myself I just wasn't convinced. I felt like they were just jumping on board the CBD Gold Rush with an inferior product.

Pop Naturals makes a Cannatonic co2 oil. In my opinion this is the real deal, albeit their product contains THC also so it's not right for everyone. To be honest that product kicked my butt and left me glued to my chair one evening :) It was rather funny.

Say I had a hemp plant that was high in CBD, but very very low in THC. Call it 8% CBD and .2% THC. If I ingested the flower of this plant either by smoking or concentrate, should I expect to feel the affects? Would I feel more relaxed?. less sore etc? Or is it more like a supplement that would need to be taken consistently over a period of time? Consider coconut oil. This product is touted as a super food. It is supposed to do all kinds of amazing things for the body. I eat coconut oil, but I honestly don't feel the results in any way. I just trust the research.

I currently have flower that is supposed to be 6% THC and 6% CBD. I grew it myself. I don't have the resources to have it tested. When ingested the feeling is fine. There is little head high. I still haven't decided if it induces sleep or if it makes a person more alert. The jury is still out I would say.

Lots of research and experimentation to be done. I appreciate your comments, but still wouldn't recommend this particular product.

I grow several high CBD strains including Harlequin, Freedom Baby by Gage and Critical mass from cbdcrew. Each has different levels of cbd. The Harlequin is a 2:1 ratio of CBD:THC. You will definitely get an immediate affect when smoking it. I get a sense of relaxation in my body almost immediately. Yes I can get a head buzz but I am fully aware of what I am doing. I am a terrible stoner and I really don't smoke much high thc unless I am not having to function at a very high level. Kind of funny for a grower but true. If you make tinctures they will still have the same affects but will take longer to take affect will probably be felt more in your body and will last longer depending on the strength of the tincture.

I have heard many say that it helps pain during the day. I don't smoke during the day so I cannot comment but I have heard it enough I believe it is probably true. But I definitely think it helps with anxiety. Just kind of takes the edge off maybe like having a glass of wine. And I think that is the beauty of the high CBD strains. You can still function during the day and medicate too.

By the way when you grow these high CBD strains, when you harvest will make a difference on the % of CBD. Like the harlequin is about 2:1 at 7.5 weeks and ends up being more 1:1 at full maturity.

I know this is a super old post, but I have recently bought CBD Wax from Hemp Remedies and it was amazing! I'm not sure how it was a few years ago but it melted my back pain away! I would recommend!

That's great news! Did you give you a high at all or was it more physical?

been using CBD oil along with cannabis to treat my arthritis and it is very effective. however you must be careful when buying it. some is made from European industrial hemp and contains a lot of heavy metals. the stuff I use is extracted from Charlotte's web and is very clean. does not get me high but works great for loosening up my joints and allowing me to be more active
