About Pomelo

Pomelo is a hybrid strain. People who try it most often describe feeling hungry, happy and energetic.

THC and potency

Public lab results give a good picture of its strength: 10 flower samples tested between 2020 and 2021 came in at a median of 18.7% total THC (the middle half ranged from 18.1% to 19.3%). CBD is typically negligible (under 0.5%). That is in line with most flower on Canadian shelves. Potency varies by grower and batch, so always check the label.

Aroma, flavour and terpenes

In lab tests its dominant terpene is limonene, followed by caryophyllene and pinene. Limonene is known for bright citrus-peel freshness, while caryophyllene adds black pepper and warm spice. Total terpene content measured a median of 1%. Consumers most often describe the flavour as lemon and citrus.

Reported effects

Beyond feeling hungry, reviewers also mention feeling giggly and focused. Some consumers say they reach for it when dealing with depression, pain and anxiety. The side effects mentioned most are dry mouth and dry eyes. These are personal reports, not medical advice.
