What are medical cannabis seeds?
What are medical cannabis seeds? | Medical cannabis seeds are cannabis genetics selected for characteristics that may be of particular interest to growers looking at cannabinoid profiles, including CBD and THC content and the balance between them. They are not a separate botanical type of cannabis seed.
At Original Sensible Seeds, the Medical collection includes CBD-rich genetics such as CannaFuel CBD+ and CannaBoom CBD+, alongside Dr Bruce Banner CBD, which offers a balanced CBD:THC profile. The collection also includes feminised indica, sativa and hybrid genetics with different cannabinoid, terpene and growing characteristics.

What are high CBD cannabis seeds?
What are high CBD cannabis seeds? | High CBD cannabis seeds are genetics bred for the potential to produce plants containing significant levels of cannabidiol (CBD). Unlike THC-dominant strains, CBD-rich genetics may contain much lower levels of THC, although the balance varies considerably between strains.
CannaFuel CBD+ is one of the highest-CBD genetics in the Original Sensible Seeds collection, with CBD potential of up to 28% and very low THC in analysis. CannaBoom CBD+ offers another CBD-rich option, with around 19–20% CBD potential and very low THC, while Dr Bruce Banner CBD has been developed for a different, more balanced cannabinoid profile.

What does high CBD mean in cannabis?
What does high CBD mean in cannabis? | High CBD generally describes cannabis with a CBD-dominant cannabinoid profile, rather than the THC-dominant profile found in many modern cannabis strains.
However, “high CBD” does not describe one fixed percentage. Different genetics can produce very different concentrations and CBD:THC ratios. For example, CannaFuel CBD+ has been selected for particularly high CBD potential with very low THC, whereas Dr Bruce Banner CBD has been bred for a more even balance between CBD and THC.
-
What is the difference between CBD and THC cannabis strains?
What is the difference between CBD and THC cannabis strains? | The principal difference is their cannabinoid profile. THC-dominant cannabis genetics are bred to produce considerably more tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), while CBD-dominant genetics are selected for higher levels of cannabidiol (CBD) relative to THC.
There are also balanced strains containing meaningful amounts of both cannabinoids. This is why looking at the expected CBD:THC ratio can be more informative than simply describing a cannabis strain as CBD or THC.
-
What does the CBD:THC ratio mean?
What does the CBD:THC ratio mean? | The CBD:THC ratio describes the relative balance between the two principal cannabinoids in a cannabis strain.
For example, a 1:1 CBD:THC ratio indicates a broadly balanced profile, while a CBD-dominant strain may contain substantially more CBD than THC. The ratio can therefore help distinguish balanced genetics such as Dr Bruce Banner CBD from high-CBD, very-low-THC genetics such as CannaFuel CBD+ and CannaBoom CBD+.
Actual cannabinoid concentrations can vary between individual plants and growing conditions, so breeder figures should be viewed as genetic potential rather than a guaranteed result.
-
What is a 1:1 CBD:THC cannabis strain?
What is a 1:1 CBD:THC cannabis strain? | A 1:1 CBD:THC cannabis strain is bred to produce a broadly balanced proportion of CBD and THC rather than being strongly dominant in either cannabinoid.
Dr Bruce Banner CBD is the Original Sensible Seeds example of this type of genetics. Created from Bruce Banner #3 × Carmen, it has been selected for approximately 10% CBD and 10% THC potential, providing a distinctly different cannabinoid profile from our CBD-dominant, very-low-THC varieties.
As with all cannabinoid figures, actual results can vary according to phenotype, growing environment, harvest timing and testing.

What is the best CBD cannabis strain for outdoor growing?
What is the best CBD cannabis strain for outdoor growing? | For growers specifically looking for an outdoor CBD strain, CannaBoom CBD+ is the standout choice in the Original Sensible Seeds Medical collection.
CannaBoom CBD+ was developed for outdoor cultivation and is a vigorous plant that benefits from plenty of space. It offers CBD potential of around 19–20% with very low THC in analysis and can potentially produce around 800 g per plant outdoors under suitable conditions.
Because of its size and growth characteristics, CannaBoom CBD+ is not our recommended CBD choice for restricted indoor spaces. Growers wanting a more manageable high-CBD option should consider CannaFuel CBD+ instead.
-
What are low THC, high CBD cannabis strains?
What are low THC, high CBD cannabis strains? | Low-THC, high-CBD cannabis strains are genetics selected to produce substantially more CBD than THC.
CannaFuel CBD+ combines CBD potential of up to 28% with approximately 0.5% THC in our analysis, while outdoor specialist CannaBoom CBD+ offers around 19–20% CBD potential with approximately 0.3% THC in its original analysis.
These figures describe the results associated with the genetics and should not be treated as guaranteed cannabinoid concentrations in every plant or as confirmation that harvested material will meet a particular legal THC threshold.

What determines CBD levels in cannabis?
What determines CBD levels in cannabis? | Genetics are fundamental to a cannabis plant's potential cannabinoid profile. Different inherited combinations influence whether a plant tends towards a CBD-dominant, THC-dominant or intermediate cannabinoid profile.
Genetics do not determine the final percentage alone. Growing environment and plant development can also influence cannabinoid concentrations, with different cultivation conditions contributing to variation.
This is why a breeder's CBD percentage should be understood as the potential of the genetics rather than a guaranteed result from every seed.

What is the difference between indica, sativa and hybrid medical cannabis genetics?
What is the difference between indica, sativa and hybrid medical cannabis genetics? | Indica, sativa and hybrid are commonly used to describe cannabis genetics and plant characteristics, but these labels should not be treated as reliable predictors of a particular medical effect.
For growers, the classifications can still provide useful information alongside more specific characteristics such as plant structure, flowering time and growth pattern. However, when comparing genetics for their cannabinoid characteristics, CBD and THC profile, cannabinoid ratio and individual strain information are more useful than relying on an indica or sativa label alone.
