Usually tests near a 2-to-1 CBD-to-THC ratio, and it is one of the few cultivars whose ratio holds steady from grower to grower.
Typical lab ranges
Menu says sativa. Chemistry: CBD-dominant.
Little to no intoxication, which is why a pharmacist usually starts a cautious or older patient here.

Three questions that turn a strain name into a decision you can defend.
Ask for the batch COA.
The certificate of analysis is the lab sheet for the batch in front of you. Ask to see it before you decide.
Ask total THC on this batch.
Compare it against the 4 to 7 percent range on this page. A number well above it means a stronger start than you may expect.
Ask which terpenes tested highest.
This cultivar usually leads with Myrcene. If the batch leads with something else, expect it to feel different.

These share at least one dominant terpene, which usually matters more than the name.
