Best Cannabis Strains: High CBD, Low THC

Meet the hottest new trend from the cannabis industry: CBD.

CBD stands for cannabidiol, which is the non-intoxicating cannabis compound.

THC or delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, CBD’s “euphoric” sibling. THC has immense popularity among recreational users and is known for giving users the feeling of being ‘high’.

As Canada legalized nationally, and more and more states flirt with legalization, CBD has recently begun sprouting up everywhere—from shampoo to skincare, edibles to dog treats.

Marketed as both a luxurious good and medicinal wonder, cannabis seeds with high CBD and low THC are all the rage. Luckily, there is no shortage of these stains to choose from. Perfect for first-timers, low-tolerance consumers, and patients who want relief from pain but don’t necessarily want to get high.


The Best High CBD, Low THC Strains

Charlotte’s Web

This cultivar, originally called “Hippie’s Disappointment,” is the first CBD strain to gain global recognition. It saved the life of Charlotte Figi, a child who suffered from a rare epileptic disorder known as Dravet Syndrome. The strain was later named “Charlotte’s Web” in honor of its first patient and its web-like appearance. It contains trace amounts of THC and is very effective at obliterating pain and controlling seizures.

 

Sour Tsunami

Sour Tsunami is also a pioneer among high CBD strains. It was specifically bred for high CBD rather than THC content. Don’t let the strain name intimidate you.
