Hybrid 60/40 — THC 17–21%

With a near-even balance between sativa and indica (sativa/indica ratio of 45/55), Chemdawg, also known as Chemdog, delivers on both fronts. A clear cerebral high drives creativity while a stony, sleepy body high fights insomnia and relaxes the muscles.

This strain has THC levels up to 19%, meaning it's more potent than most.

Panama Red

Sativa 0/100 — THC 16–22%

You don't have to be a stoner or medical marijuana patient to recognize the words "Panama Red." This truly old-school strain rose to prominence in the late 1960s thanks to its alluring name and pure sativa effects (sativa/indica ratio of 100:0).

This makes Panama Red an effective medication for anxiety, ADHD, migraine headaches, and mood disorders.
