Which of these is NOT a primary cannabis product category?
Edibles
Concentrates
Flower
Paints
Flower, edibles, and concentrates are all key cannabis product categories used for consumption. Paints are unrelated to cannabis products and their uses.
Which cannabinoid is primarily responsible for the psychoactive effects of cannabis?
CBD
THC
CBG
CBC
THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is the main psychoactive cannabinoid in cannabis, producing the 'high.' Other cannabinoids like CBD do not produce significant psychoactive effects.
Which cannabis product type is applied directly to the skin to target localized relief?
Edibles
Tinctures
Topicals
Concentrates
Topicals are formulations such as lotions and balms that are applied to the skin for localized relief. They do not typically produce psychoactive effects because they don't enter the bloodstream significantly.
Which storage container is best for preserving cannabis flower freshness?
Plastic bag
Glass jar
Paper envelope
Plastic container
A glass jar provides an airtight seal that helps maintain humidity levels and preserve terpene profiles. Plastic bags and envelopes allow more air exchange and moisture loss.
What is the best description of a budtender?
Cannabis retail specialist
Yoga instructor
Medical doctor
Extraction technician
A budtender is a retail specialist who guides customers through product options and usage recommendations. They are not medical doctors or technical extraction staff.
Which terpene is commonly associated with a citrus aroma and mood elevation?
Myrcene
Pinene
Limonene
Linalool
Limonene has a strong citrus scent and is known for its potential mood-elevating properties. It is commonly found in strains with lemon or orange aromas.
What term describes the proposed synergy between cannabinoids and terpenes?
Synergy effect
Terpene boost
Entourage effect
Isolate effect
The 'entourage effect' refers to the idea that cannabinoids and terpenes work together to enhance therapeutic benefits. It contrasts with using isolated compounds alone.
What is the typical onset time for effects from cannabis edibles?
5 - 10 minutes
10 - 20 minutes
60 - 90 minutes
3 - 5 hours
Edibles generally take 60 - 90 minutes to produce noticeable effects due to gastrointestinal absorption and first-pass metabolism. This is much slower than inhalation methods.
Which container type is ideal for displaying cannabis flower while minimizing UV exposure?
Clear plastic bins
Glass jars with UV-blocking coating
Metal tins
Open baskets
Glass jars with UV-blocking coatings allow customers to view flower while protecting cannabinoids and terpenes from light degradation. Clear plastics do not filter UV effectively.
Which dosing phrase describes beginning with a small amount and gradually increasing?
Go-fast method
Start low, go slow
High-first dosing
Pulse dosing
'Start low, go slow' means starting with a small dose of THC and increasing gradually to find an effective level. This approach helps minimize unwanted side effects.
What temperature range is ideal for curing cannabis flower?
32 - 37°F (0 - 3°C)
59 - 70°F (15 - 21°C)
80 - 90°F (27 - 32°C)
100 - 110°F (38 - 43°C)
Curing at 59 - 70°F (15 - 21°C) helps preserve terpenes and cannabinoids while preventing mold. Higher temperatures can degrade potency and aroma.
What process converts non-psychoactive THCA into psychoactive THC?
Hydrolysis
Decarboxylation
Distillation
Fermentation
Decarboxylation is the chemical reaction that removes a carboxyl group from THCA, converting it into active THC when heated. This step is essential for psychoactive effects.
A customer seeks relief without intoxication. Which product do you recommend?
Pure THC concentrate
Balanced 1:1 THC:CBD oil
High-CBD, low-THC product
Live resin
High-CBD, low-THC products offer therapeutic relief with minimal psychoactive effects. CBD counteracts some of THC's intoxicating properties.
What is a retail best practice for cannabis product labeling?
Handwritten tags for pricing
Labels with potency and origin
Generic brand logos only
No labeling to streamline display
Labels showing potency (e.g., THC/CBD percentages) and origin ensure customers make informed choices. Clear labeling also meets regulatory requirements.
Which inventory rotation method ensures older stock is sold before newer stock?
LIFO (Last In, First Out)
FIFO (First In, First Out)
FEFO (First Expired, First Out)
Random rotation
FIFO (First In, First Out) means products that arrive first are sold first, reducing the risk of expired stock. This method helps maintain quality and compliance.
Which terpene is also known as trans-caryophyllene and acts as a CB2 receptor agonist?
Linalool
Beta-caryophyllene
Humulene
Myrcene
Beta-caryophyllene binds selectively to CB2 receptors and may have anti-inflammatory effects. It is unique among terpenes for acting directly as a cannabinoid.
For a 70 kg adult using a starting dose of 1 mg THC per 10 kg body weight, what is the recommended initial dose?
3.5 mg
7 mg
10 mg
21 mg
At 1 mg THC per 10 kg, a 70 kg individual begins with 7 mg (70 kg ÷ 10 kg × 1 mg). This calculation supports precise, weight-based dosing.
Which packaging option meets both child-resistant and UV-protection requirements?
Clear glass jar
Opaque child-resistant pouch
Unsealed sample vials
Open display bins
Opaque, child-resistant pouches block UV light and prevent easy opening by children. Clear containers expose product to light and are not childproof.
A patient wants pain relief with minimal psychoactivity. Which CBD:THC ratio is most appropriate?
1:1 CBD:THC
20:1 CBD:THC
1:20 CBD:THC
100% THC isolate
A 20:1 CBD to THC ratio provides strong therapeutic benefit from CBD with very low THC levels. This minimizes psychoactive effects while maintaining efficacy.
Which extraction method uses a solvent like butane to preserve terpene profiles in a final concentrate?
Rosin press
Live resin extraction
Supercritical CO₂ distillate
Hydrocarbon-free cold soak
Live resin is produced using solvents such as butane at low temperatures to retain a high terpene content. Rosin press is solventless and does not use hydrocarbons.
