The most widely known CBD cultivar in the country, originally bred for a child with seizures, and carrying almost no THC.

Typical lab ranges

Menu says hybrid. Chemistry: CBD-dominant.

THC0.3 to 1 percent
CBD11 to 17 percent

Bars fill at 30 percent, roughly where flower lab sheets top out.

Little to no intoxication, which is why a pharmacist usually starts a cautious or older patient here.

Watch

It is not intoxicating at normal amounts. Patients who expect to feel something often decide it is not working, when in fact nothing was supposed to be felt.

A strain name is marketing. The lab sheet is chemistry.

Growers, harvests and even jars from the same harvest test differently. The ranges above describe what this cultivar usually looks like, and the certificate of analysis for your batch is the number that counts.

Dominant terpenes

In the order they usually test highest. Each links to what was actually studied.

Take this to the counter

Three questions that turn a strain name into a decision you can defend.

  1. Ask for the batch COA.

    The certificate of analysis is the lab sheet for the batch in front of you. Ask to see it before you decide.

  2. Ask total THC on this batch.

    Compare it against the 0.3 to 1 percent range on this page. A number well above it means a stronger start than you may expect.

  3. Ask which terpenes tested highest.

    This cultivar usually leads with Beta-caryophyllene. If the batch leads with something else, expect it to feel different.

Related cultivars

These share at least one dominant terpene, which usually matters more than the name.
