Full-Spectrum

Full-spectrum describes products that retain the plant’s broader chemistry — the range of cannabinoids and terpenes together — rather than isolating one compound. Its cousin “broad-spectrum” usually means everything except Δ9 THC. The marketing leans on an “entourage effect” whose scientific support is suggestive rather than settled, and our coverage says so plainly. What full-spectrum reliably delivers is flavor and character; what it cannot promise is a specific feeling or benefit. On a COA, full-spectrum should look like a populated cannabinoid panel — several compounds at real percentages — rather than one tall bar and silence.
