Frequently asked questions
Who makes +PlusCBD and what's the company's reputation?
+PlusCBD is the consumer brand from CV Sciences, a publicly-traded company that's been in the hemp space since 2012. They're one of the older and more established names in the category. CV Sciences was the first hemp-derived CBD product to achieve self-affirmed GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) status and runs in-house testing on every batch.
What's the difference between +PlusCBD Original, Total Plant Complex, and Reserve formulas?
Original is full-spectrum hemp extract in MCT oil — the everyday line, broadest customer base. Total Plant Complex adds more of the minor cannabinoids and plant compounds for a fuller-spectrum profile. Reserve is the higher-potency version for people who already know their dose and need more per serving. Start with Original unless you have a reason to step up.
Are +PlusCBD products third-party tested?
Yes. CV Sciences provides batch-specific Certificates of Analysis for every product, available by entering the lot number on their website. The COAs cover cannabinoid content, residual solvents, pesticides, heavy metals, and microbial contamination. We can pull the COA for any +PlusCBD product in our store on request.
Will +PlusCBD products show up on a drug test?
Full-spectrum +PlusCBD oils, drops, and gummies contain trace amounts of THC (under the federal 0.3% limit) and can potentially trigger a positive drug screen with heavy or regular use. If drug testing is a concern, choose CBD isolate or broad-spectrum products instead. +PlusCBD does offer THC-free options in their lineup.
How long do +PlusCBD products take to work?
Sublingual drops typically take effect in 15 to 45 minutes, depending on how empty your stomach is. Capsules and gummies take 45 minutes to 2 hours because they have to digest first. Topicals work locally on the area you apply them to within 10 to 20 minutes. Effects from any format typically last 4 to 8 hours.
Where is +PlusCBD hemp grown?
CV Sciences sources their hemp from family-owned farms in Northern Europe and the United States, with traceability back to the seed. The company doesn't use synthetic pesticides or herbicides in their cultivation. They publish their sourcing standards on their corporate site if you want the full details.
