About These Strains

Dream Queen

Sativa 30/70 — THC 19–22%

Dream Queen is the potent and popular progeny of two legendary strains, Blue Dream and Space Queen. It's a sativa-dominant hybrid with a sativa/indica ratio of between 70:30 and meaning a creative, euphoric, happy head high driven by THC levels that can exceed 19% in some tests.

This strain has a fairly high CBD content, roughly 0.5%, but that's not high enough to recommend it as a front-line form of treatment for seizure disorders or other conditions that respond to CBD preparations.
