While we wait for a coronavirus cure, scientists have found that CBD helps reduce the lung damage caused by COVID-19.

A study at the Medical College of Georgia has shown that a CBD treatment has increased a natural peptide called apelin, which reduces inflammation. The cannabis community has long championed CBD strains and their effects, so it comes without surprise that CBD might be an effective treatment against respiratory diseases. Not only does CBD reduce inflammation, but the report showed it also improves oxygen levels and reduces the physical lung damage caused by infections like the COVID-19.

Not happy to sit waiting for a coronavirus cure, we wanted to highlight the best CBD strains to grow and to celebrate the diversity and versatility of the cannabis plant.

It’s increasingly common to find CBD products in mainstream health shops and supermarkets. Less is known about CBD strains and their effects. Breeders have developed the best CBD strains to grow, and now the market is thriving full of CBD strains.

To help you find the best CBD strains to grow, we’ve compiled a list of them.

Top CBD strains to grow

Dinamed CBD Auto – Dinamed

The feminized version of this strain is considered to be the first pure CBD strain in history. With recorded levels of 14% CBD and >1% THC, it has multiple therapeutic properties and almost no psychoactive effects. For those reasons, Dinamed CBD Auto is hugely popular in therapeutic circles.

It’s also popular with recreational users because Dinamed CBD tastes and smells like a traditional cannabis plant, rich in THC. Add a yield of 100g of dried CBD flower per plant and a super quick finishing time, and even if it’s not a coronavirus cure, it could be one of the best CBD strains to grow.

CBD Black Widow – Positronics

This fruity phenotype is high in CBD but is not a ‘pure’ CBD strain as it contains levels of THC between 5% – 10%. The high CBD content will counterbalance any potential psychoactive effects from the THC you may encounter. The cannabinoid profile of this plant provides many medicinal benefits and is also nice to grow due to the fast-flowering time and the decent yield of 400g m2.

CBD Charlotte’s Angel – Dutch Passion

Dutch Passion’s first CBD strain and probably the most famous CBD strain in the world, Charlotte’s Angel is renowned for a strong body effect and calming experience that leaves users feeling medicated but not high.

With CBD levels between 10% – 16%, this Sativa dominant variety may not be a coronavirus cure, but it’s a very popular CBD strain. If you like piney diesel undertones and a herbal aroma, this could be one of the best CBD strains to grow for you.

Raspberry Waffles CBD – Devils Harvest

They say the devil finds work for idle hands; Devils Harvest can’t have been idle for long because they’ve created a unique CBD hybrid strain with exceptionally high THC levels of between 15% and 20% and exceptionally high CBD levels. This CBD strain is ideal for serious growers and potentially breeders looking to add something special to their vault.

Super Lemon Haze CBD – Greenhouse

Greenhouse took a world-class super lemon haze and bred it with a CBD-rich male. Despite THC levels between 9% – 12%, it still qualifies as a CBD strain and, in reality, is almost a 1:1 strain. It has a 10-week flowering period that is typical of Sativa, but you will be rewarded with a big yield of almost a kilo of potent CBD flower per m2.

Dinamed CBD plus – Dinafem

This heavy-yielding feminized CBD strain is packed with cannabinoids and is perfect for forms of epilepsy, inflammatory conditions, and neurodegenerative diseases. Due to rigorous selecting and breeding, growers can expect CBD levels of up to 20% from this very stable plant.

There is your list of the best CBD strains to grow but there might be a more effective alternative to consuming CBD by combustion. Alternatives such as oil extracts, ointments, and edibles can be made from your yield. Swapping smoking for vaporising is also an increasingly popular option.

Whatever you decide to do with what you grow, we’re living in a strange time; stay safe, stay positive and try to stay happy.
