THC and CBD explainedUpdated 2 months ago

Potency is not the whole story. THC drives most psychoactive effects while CBD can soften intensity and add body relief. Terpenes shape flavor and the overall feel.

Typical ranges

• THC: Many modern strains sit around 18–26%.
• CBD: Low (<1%), balanced (4–10%), or high (>10%) depending on the cultivar.

How to choose

• New to THC: Look for moderate THC with some CBD for a smoother introduction.
• Experienced: High THC is fine if you prefer intensity. Start low on dosage and work up.
• Wellness focus: Choose CBD-rich cultivars or balanced ratios.
