3 Top CBD-High Strains

Today, as many cannabis strains are bred to contain high level of THC, similarly many strains are bred to contain high level of CBD. Typically CBD are consumed in the form of a tincture, edible or gummy and perhaps you would consider consuming it in the form of CBD flower too.

High CBD strains have been developed to contain significant levels of CBD without overwhelming, mind-altering levels of THC. While high CBD strains can be made into familiar CBD products like tinctures, some people prefer these strains in their natural flower form.
