About These Strains

Charlotte's Web

Hybrid 50/50 — THC 03% — CBD 10–20%

Charlotte’s Web, also known as “Charlotte Web” or “Hippie’s Disappointment,” is an evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created through crossing unknown strains with an industrial hemp strain. Infamous for its high medicinal power, Charlotte’s Web was first created for a young girl named Charlotte Figi, who suffered from a rare disorder known as Dravet Syndrome and was effectively treated using medical marijuana.

That being said, don’t expect too much of a high from Charlotte’s Web.

Sativa 30/70 — THC 00%
