CBD Therapy Seeds in Canada - 9 High-CBD Strains Compared

Posted On 05/25/2026 By QCS
CBD Therapy Seeds in Canada - 9 High-CBD Strains Compared

"CBD Therapy" is a strain name, not a category — and Quebec Cannabis Seeds does not sell a strain under that exact name. What we do carry is nine high-CBD seed lines that cover the same ground, from CBD Zero at under 1% THC and 15% CBD through to CBD Harlequin at 7 to 15% THC. If you came here looking for CBD Therapy seeds in Canada, the table below tells you in one glance which of ours is the closest match to what you actually want.

We would rather say that plainly than sell you something under a name it does not have.

A note on the numbers in this article: harvest dates, flowering times and yields are ranges, not promises. They vary depending on growing conditions: the grower, the method and the season's weather. "Mold resistant" means mold tolerant: less prone to mold and slower to be affected. No strain is 100% mold resistant. How we set these numbers →

Published strain estimates; final cannabinoid levels vary with genetics, growing conditions and post-harvest handling.

Which one should you pick?

  • You want as little THC as possible. CBD Charlotte's Web at 0.3 to 1.0% THC, or CBD Zero at under 1% with 15% CBD. These are the two that come closest to what most people mean by "CBD therapy" genetics.
  • You want the highest CBD figure. CBD AC/DC at 15 to 20% CBD with 1% or less THC. It is derived from Cannatonic and is the strongest CBD line we carry.
  • You want a balanced 1:1 effect. CBD Painkiller XL (9% / 9%) or CBD Sour Kush (11% / 11%). You will feel these.
  • You want the biggest harvest. CBD Harlequin at 650 to 700 g/m² indoors, finishing in 55 to 65 days.
  • You are growing outdoors in Quebec. CBD Harlequin finishes mid-October and CBD AC/DC late September to early October, which is the difference between harvesting and losing a crop to frost in zone 4.

What CBD:THC ratio actually means

The ratio matters more than either number on its own. A strain at 15% CBD and 1% THC behaves nothing like one at 11% CBD and 11% THC, even though both are called "high CBD".

  • Above 10:1 CBD to THC — Charlotte's Web, CBD Zero, AC/DC. Non-intoxicating in practice for most people.
  • Roughly 2:1 — CBD Cannatonic at 12% CBD to 6% THC. A noticeable but mild effect.
  • Roughly 1:1 — Painkiller XL, Sour Kush, Northern Lights CBD. Clearly psychoactive, just less sharp than a THC-dominant strain.

CBD is generally described as non-intoxicating, but a 1:1 strain still contains real THC. If that matters to you, read the ratio and not the label.

Growing high-CBD seeds in Canada

High-CBD strains grow like any other cannabis plant. The thing that catches Canadian growers out is the calendar, not the cannabinoid.

  • Outdoor finish dates matter most. CBD AC/DC is ready late September to early October; Charlotte's Web runs early to late October; Harlequin lands mid-October. In zones 4 and 5 the later finishers need a sheltered spot or a plan to finish under cover.
  • Several of these are sativa-leaning — Harlequin and Mango Haze are 80% sativa. Expect taller plants and longer stretch after the flip than an indica.
  • Feminized seeds save you the guesswork. Every CBD line we carry is feminized, so you are not pulling males out halfway through.
  • Humidity discipline still applies. Dense CBD flower moulds as readily as any other.

Canadian law allows adults of legal age to grow up to four plants per household, not per person, and provincial and territorial rules vary. Check your own province before you plant.

Frequently asked questions

Does Quebec Cannabis Seeds sell CBD Therapy seeds?

Not under that exact name. "CBD Therapy" is a specific strain name used by other breeders. The closest equivalents in our catalogue are CBD Zero (under 1% THC, 15% CBD) and CBD Charlotte's Web (0.3 to 1.0% THC, 10 to 15% CBD).

Which CBD seed has the lowest THC?

CBD Charlotte's Web, at 0.3 to 1.0% THC. CBD Zero and CBD AC/DC are both at or under 1%.

Which CBD seed has the most CBD?

CBD AC/DC, at 15 to 20% CBD with 1% or less THC.

Are there CBD seeds with no THC at all?

No cannabis plant produces zero THC. CBD Zero and CBD Charlotte's Web are the lowest we carry, at under 1%, which is low enough that most people report no intoxication.

Do CBD seeds get you high?

It depends entirely on the ratio. A strain at 15% CBD and under 1% THC will not; a 1:1 strain such as CBD Sour Kush at 11% THC will. Read both numbers before choosing.

Are CBD cannabis seeds legal in Canada?

Cannabis seeds are regulated under the Cannabis Act and CBD falls under the same framework as cannabis generally. Adults of legal age may buy and grow within federal, provincial and territorial limits. It is your responsibility to know the rules where you live.

Which high-CBD strain is best for a short Canadian season?

CBD AC/DC, which finishes late September to early October, or CBD Harlequin and CBD Northern Lights, both at 55 to 65 days indoors.

How much do CBD seeds yield?

CBD Harlequin is the heaviest at 650 to 700 g/m² indoors. Charlotte's Web runs 350 to 450 g/m² indoors and 450 to 600 g per plant outdoors. Cannatonic can pass 600 g per plant outdoors.
