thatsTHC and CBD are the two most well-known (and most abundant) cannabinoids in the cannabis plant. Most users look for strains and products high in THC, which provide numerous health benefits and the high that most associate with the plant. Not every cannabis user wants to experience the psychoactive effects, however. To this end, there are high CBD low THC formulas (strains and cannabis products) that provide the benefits of cannabis without the mind-altering effects.

CBD to THC Ratio

The CBD to THC ratio tells you how much of each cannabinoid is in a particular strain or product. While many users seek strains and products that are higher in THC than CBD, some users prefer a higher CBD content.

So, how do you know what the ratio of CBD to THC is? In most cases, you’ll find the ratio expressed right on the packaging of various products in the dispensary. For instance, you may come across a topical with an 18:1 CBD to THC ratio or a vape with a 2:1 ratio.

Why the Ratio Matters

The ratio on the label of a cannabis product can tell you a bit about what you can expect when you use it. Both CBD and THC provide therapeutic effects. Some studies show that a combination of the two cannabinoids provides greater results than an isolate. High CBD formulas provide the medicinal benefits of cannabis, but the CBD helps to counteract THC’s high-inducing effects, keeping you clear-headed and able to function normally.

Common Ratios for High CBD Products

How you feel when using a specific cannabis strain or product depends on several factors, including your weight, tolerance, metabolism, and genetics. The best ratio for you will depend on these factors, along with what you want to get out of your experience. Here are some of the most common CBD to THC ratios you might find in your local dispensary:

  • 18:1: an excellent ratio for beginners and those who don’t want to experience the mind-altering effects of THC
  • 8:1: another great ratio for new users or those who don’t want to get high
  • 4:1: a good ratio for those who have some tolerance to THC
  • 2:1 a more balanced ratio, but you are likely to feel some psychoactive effects

High CBD Low THC Strains

While many strains of cannabis have a much higher amount of THC and minimal to no CBD, some strains are the opposite. These high CBD strains might be just what you need to feel the beneficial effects of cannabis with little to no high:

  • ACDC
  • Cannatonic
  • Charlotte’s Web
  • Harle-Tsu
  • Harlequin
  • Ringo’s Gift
  • Sour Tsunami

Find Your Ideal Formula

The higher the CBD in a strain or product, the less likely you are to experience the high that most people associate with cannabis use. These strains and formulas are ideal for those who might not want the psychoactive effects, or for those who might be sensitive to THC.
