About These Strains

Dutch Treat

Hybrid 40/60 — THC 18–25%

Not surprisingly, Dutch Treat is an Amsterdam staple, an indica-dominant hybrid with a 20:80 sativa/indica ratio. The strain's limited sativa genetics produce a near-instant head rush, followed by a numbing body high somewhere short of couch-lock.

Dutch Treat has THC levels reaching 18-25%, so it's strong but not aggressively so.

Headband

Hybrid 60/40 — THC 17–24% — CBD 1–1%

Headband is a classic standby, effective and easy to find almost anywhere. It's available on both the legal and black markets, but it's most popular on the West Coast.

This strain is a cross of two venerable parents, OG Kush and Sour Diesel, making for a 40:60 sativa/indica ratio.
