THC and potency

Public lab results give a good picture of its strength: 28 flower samples tested between 2020 and 2024 came in at a median of 19.3% total THC (the middle half ranged from 16.1% to 23.9%). 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 caryophyllene, followed by limonene and humulene. Caryophyllene is known for black pepper and warm spice, while limonene adds bright citrus-peel freshness. Total terpene content measured a median of 1.8%. Consumers most often describe the flavour as strawberry, grape and berry.
