What Does Very High THC Mean? 🌿Updated an hour ago

When browsing cannabis seeds on our site, you may notice some strains described as having “very high THC – over 20%.” This label helps highlight strains that consistently produce above-average THC levels compared to the typical 15–18% range found in many varieties.

How much over 20%? 🤔

The phrase “over 20%” indicates that the strain has been bred and tested to reach THC levels starting around 20% and often climbing higher. Depending on the genetics and growing conditions, these strains may test in the 22–28% range, with some exceptional phenotypes occasionally pushing even further.

It’s important to note that exact THC percentages can vary from one grow to another. Factors like environment, nutrients, light, and grower technique all play a role in the final cannabinoid profile.

Why label it this way? 🌱

Instead of promising a single number that may not be guaranteed in every grow, we group strains into potency categories. “Very high over 20%” gives you confidence that the strain belongs to the strongest THC bracket and is ideal if you’re looking for powerful effects.

Choosing the right potency

• If you’re new to cannabis, you may want to start with strains closer to 15–18%.

• Experienced growers and consumers looking for intense effects often prefer the 20%+ category.
