This is a real Sativa/Indica balanced plant with big fat leaf structure. Do not give it more than 3 weeks in veg or use cropping because the stretch is important. The flowering time is between 8-9 weeks, yields: 450 to 500 psm. She makes great dense flowers and is a big resin producer. The flavor is fresh and smooth with that unique S.A.G.E.® flavor. Good for soil, hydro, aero, coco, but best in organic - this is medicine after all. For the test we used only organic soil and organic fertilizer for the first three weeks in flower, then we stopped and only gave water to see the genetics true potency. We started with 1L pots for 2 weeks and transplanted to a 3,5L for the flowering stage. It produced between 35 and 55 gr per plant.
What is CBD?
CBD is one of over 60+ compounds found in cannabis that belong to a class of molecules called cannabinoids. Of these compounds, CBD and THC are usually present in the highest concentrations, and are therefore the most recognized and studied. CBD and THC levels tend to vary between different strains and varieties of cannabis. By using selective breeding techniques, it is possible to create varieties with high levels of CBD and THC. CBD does not cause a high, unlike THC. The reason why CBD is non-psychoactive is due to its lack of affinity for CB1 receptors. CB1 receptors are found in high concentrations in the brain, and are the pathways responsible for the psychoactive effects of THC.
The RATIO
For anxiety, depression, spasms, and pediatric seizure disorders, many patients initially find they do best with a moderate dose of a CBD-dominant remedy (a CBD:THC ratio of more than 10:1). But a low THC remedy, while not intoxicating, is not necessarily the best therapeutic option. A combination of CBD and THC will likely have a greater therapeutic effect for a wider range of conditions than CBD or THC alone. For cancer, neurological disease, and many other ailments, patients may benefit from a balanced ratio of CBD and THC. Extensive clinical research has shown that a 1:1 CBD:THC ratio is effective for neuropathic pain.

Strain FAQ
Why are low-THC strains reportedly better for some people?
Low-THC strains are quickly gaining popularity in the cannabis world due to their lack of psychoactive effects. As the world gradually increases cannabis legality and the potential benefits of the plant are more researched, we are quickly learning that there is much more to cannabis than the representation we see in old movies. Low THC strains are reportedly providing a way for the potential benefits of cannabis to be felt by a greater number of people.
What does this strain's South American make-up mean for its indica/sativa profile?
Equatorial South American nations explain the abundance of Sativa traits in South American strains. These protracted growth seasons produce towering, narrow-leafed cannabis plants that take longer to flower.
Where do high CBD strains stand legally?
The legality of high CBD strains can be confusing. Local restrictions differ, with some favouring strains with a specified CBD-to-THC ratio. Most commonly there is a maximum allowed THC percentage of something like 0.2% and as long as the strain does not produce more than this, it is seen as legal. This patchwork of restrictions is creating a confusing but promising CBD-rich product industry.
How has looking for the perfect 50/50 hybrid affected cannabis breeding?
The pursuit of balance has driven cannabis breeding innovation. It's about unlocking new genetic possibilities and understanding the plant better, paving the door for future strain development.
How do strains suitable for the outdoors vary phenotypically?
Legal growers report that growing the same strain outdoors can produce startling differences in potency, flavour, and growth. Cannabis is said to be very flexible, with its features finely modified by its growth environment.
