About Maui Wowie

Maui Wowie is a sativa-leaning strain. You may also see it sold as Maui Waui, Mowie Wowie. People who try it most often describe feeling energetic, uplifted and happy.

THC and potency

Public lab results give a good picture of its strength: 16 flower samples tested between 2020 and 2024 came in at a median of 17.7% total THC (the middle half ranged from 15.5% to 20.9%). 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 myrcene, followed by caryophyllene and limonene. Myrcene is known for earthy, musky notes with a ripe-fruit edge, while caryophyllene adds black pepper and warm spice. Total terpene content measured a median of 1.2%. Consumers most often describe the flavour as tropical, pineapple and mango.

Reported effects

Beyond feeling energetic, reviewers also mention feeling creative and talkative. Some consumers say they reach for it when dealing with stress, anxiety and depression. The side effects mentioned most are dry eyes, dry mouth and paranoia. These are personal reports, not medical advice.
