Cis vs trans double bond in the geriniol tail

edit

Hello, I think that the structure shown here is incorrect, because the geraniol generally incorporated into cannabinoids has cis not trans double bonds. In the structure (and the synthesis pathway below), the geraniol tail is shown as having its first double bond (3 carbons distant from the ring) in the trans orientation.

I found a correct structure, to illustrate, here: https://rhizosciences.com/product/cbga-isolate-1g/ though I understand that their image is probably not for free use.
