Cannabiniods in Cannabis
With the largely underground cannabis scene prioritizing potency as a key factor in making a particular strain more desirable than another, as a direct result today's cannabis market is full of varieties with a high level of the cannabiniod, THC. But although THC is one of the most prevalent active compounds in cannabis, there are at least 85 cannabinoids that we know of and that CBD is the cannabionoid emerging with the most anticipated potential as a legitimate medical and medicinal option.
CBD Rich Strains of Cannabis
CBD is the abbreviation for cannabidiol and is second only to THC with regards to averaging volume. CBD has shown to have analgestic, anti-inflammatory and anti-anxiety properties without having the psychoactive effect that THC delivers. Cannabis strains are considered high in THC with levels of over 20%, whilst a variety is considered to be high in CBD or CBD Rich with CBD levels of over 4%.
Elite Seeds that are CBD Rich
Elite Seeds was founded in 2007 with the goal of creating cannabis strains with the most sought after charateristics and quickly understood the importance of knowing the cannabinoid levels within their created varieties. Elite Seeds line of CBD Rich strains is home to a collection of varieties with a high CBD content. Some would say that CBD acts like a shock absorber to the psychoactive effects of THC. Many of the CBD Rich strains in the Elite Seeds catalogue have high levels of both THC and CBD with a ratio of around 1:1, and in some cases having a higher level of CBD than THC.
La Rica Auto is a CBD Rich autoflowering strain from Elite seeds with a CBD:THC ratio of 11:9 (11% CBD, 9% THC). La Rica has an original fruity aroma, enormous buds and an Indica effect but due to the CBD content the effects are not as hard hitting as the THC version.
Juanita La Lagrimosa was created in collaboration with Reggae Seeds. The original clone of Juanita La Lagrimosa had a CBD:THC ratio of 8.8:6.7 (8.8% CBD, 6.7% THC). After a lot of crosses and selection, Elite Seeds have succeeded in creating a strain that is rich in CBD that also produces high yields.
Solodiol is the latest CBD Rich photoperiod strain that has been created by Elite Seeds, with an autoflowering version soon to be released as well. The CBD:THC ratio of Solodiol is 20:1 (20% CBD, 1% THC). Solodiol was created by crossing varieties high in CBD without using inbred genetics as offspring of from those genetics can often have anomalies. A great accompaniment to this strain rich in CBD is a non alcoholic beer!

Really informative post! Great to see more focus on CBD-rich strains like Solodiol and La Rica Auto. It's exciting how far breeding has come. Only downside is that strains with higher CBD often have less intense effects, which might not appeal to those looking for a stronger experience.
