Every day, breeders of the medical marijuana community come up with newer and more effective medical strains.
The Canadian licensed producer Tilray is not any different.
In developing the Afghani CBD, they picked the classic Afghani Indica to serve as the genetic base.
Already, it is one of the premier strains in the world. Its psychoactive compounds are exceptional.
Not only that, but the plant itself is incredibly sturdy and withstand harsh conditions.
It is also very potent with THC ranging from 15% to 20%.
For the new hybrid, Tilray wanted to bring down the THC and at the same time, radically increase the CBD compound.
To do that, they picked Cannatonic. It is the perfect choice for two reasons.
One is that its THC is under 6%. Another and more importantly is that it possesses up to 17% CBD.
Through a series of crossbreeding and other undisclosed processes, Tilray finally released the Afghani CBD – a hybrid with mild psychedelic effects but can deliver a host of medical benefits.
