As the world of cannabis consumption evolves, so do the demands of the market. For many, what was once about achieving the highest high is now more about personalized experiences. This is clear as more consumers chase down CBD-dominant strains.
While fan favorites like Harlequin and ACDC still reign supreme as household names, data suggests that CBD enthusiasts are craving new strains and fresh effects. For that reason, we took a look at Leafly data to find the top trending CBD strains across the US.
Remedy
Bringing on a heavy dose of relaxation without sending you soaring past Cloud 9, the CBD-dominantย Remedyย is just that: a remedy. An indica-dominant cross ofย Cannatonicย andย Afghan Skunk, consumers seek Remedy to help treat anxiety, pain, and inflammation. Over the past year, search interest for this strain increased by 660%.
The Wife
Itโs 10 oโclockโdo you know whereย The Wifeย is? Another CBD-dominant strain thatโs seen a jump in search interest over the past year (a whopping 567%), The Wife is a robust hybrid with a nearly 20:1 CBD:THC ratio.
Consumers look for The Wifeโs help with alleviating nausea, chronic pain, and the side effects of chemotherapy. It can be a bit hard to find as itโs only available on a few menus industry-wideโso if you see it, grab it before you the chance is gone.
Dancehall
DANCE DANCE DANCE DAN (this is obviously a Jackson 5 reference).ย Dancehallย is another popular name in the CBD world thatโs seen a 550% boost in search interest. Itโs a sativa-dominant hybrid with a near 1:1 CBD:THC ratio thatโll leave you feeling relaxed, yet uplifted and energetic.
Despite its popularity, Dancehall is most easily found in Washington. If you find yourself in the Evergreen State, Puffin Farmโs Dancehall cartridge, winner of the 2018 Sun Cup for Best CBD Cartridge, is a great option.
Nordle
Nordleย is another CBD strain that consumers have been clamoring forโand by that, we mean search interest has leaped by 460% in the past year. A cross betweenย Afghaniย and Skunk, Nordle is a balanced 1:1 hybrid that delivers mild effects and potential relief of pain and muscle spasms. Youโll get high from this, but itโll be a smoother ride coupled with a lighter comedown.
Like The Wife, Nordle is another rare CBD strain. However, itโs available across all markets, so thereโs a chance you can find it at a retailer near you.
CBD Shark
Another strain with a 1:1 balanced CBD:THC ratio,ย CBD Sharkย is an indica-dominant hybrid that helps patients with pain, anxiety, and inflammation. Sure, youโll get high, but those 1:1 strains tend to be a pretty even cruise instead of a jarring takeoff. Over the past year, search interest for this strain jumped by 272% as it becomes increasingly available in legal cannabis markets. Youโll most likely find CBD Shark in the form of a concentrate.
ACDC
rain that I probably donโt even need to tell you about it. But I will.ย ACDCย is aย phenotypeย ofย Cannatonicย with a CBD: THC ratio of 20:1. If you want to get superย not-high, ACDC is a good strain to seek out, evidenced by its 89% boost in search interest over the past year. Plus, it tends to be readily available nationwide.
MediHaze
MediHaze, sometimes known as CBD MediHaze, is a CBD-rich strain that provides clear-headed, uplifting effects. It retains pine and mint aromas with spicy undertones. If you need to chill out from any high-strung activities while easing pain or anxiety, this is a great strain for you.
MediHaze has seen a 69% boost in search interest over the past yearโplus itโs currently available across several markets.
