Does a seed contain CBD?
CBD lives in the leaves and flowers of the hemp plant. Unfortunately, there isn’t any CBD in seeds. Hemp seeds or hemp seed oil will not have the benefits of CBD. To achieve the full benefits, you want to use CBD products that are “broad spectrum hemp oil.
You can grow your own CBD-containing Hemp plant(s) with seeds you can buy at various suppliers, for example Royal Queen Seeds.
Up until recently, maximising THC content was the goal of most cannabis breeders. Today, however, this trend is ebbing in favour of CBD-rich strains—those that contain an abundance of cannabidiol, and only a minor or moderate amount of THC. Backed by a growing body of scientific research, the therapeutic potential of CBD has resulted in great demand for high-CBD strains. Below are 5 the most popular CBD seeds (strains) on the market, containing a wealth of CBD and varying levels of THC.
The 5 most popular CBD seeds (2023)
STRESS KILLER AUTOMATIC
The key trait of Stress Killer Automatic is summed up accurately by her name. A high level of CBD balances out a mellow THC content of 11% to produce a crystal-clear head high that boosts focus. This strain offers the best of both worlds: therapeutic doses of CBD, and just enough THC to hit the sweet spot between euphoria and being too high to operate. Stress Killer Automatic can be blazed or vaped throughout the day to boost productivity and relieve symptoms without compromising the mental faculties. This ideal balance of cannabinoids was achieved by breeding Lemon Shining Silver Haze, Juanita la Lagrimosa, and a Cannabis ruderalis variety. This combination created a genetic profile of 60% sativa, 30% indica, and 10% ruderalis.
Stress Killer Automatic is an easy strain to grow and can take some abuse, making her attractive to novice growers. Indoor plants will yield up to 500g/m² and peak at a height of 140cm. Plants cultivated outdoors produce a yield of between 110–160g/plant and grow to a slightly taller height of 160cm.

SOLOMATIC CBD
Solomatic CBD is a heavily indica-dominant autoflowering variety that was bred with a single goal in mind: maximum CBD, minimum THC. The breeders behind this specimen achieved that goal, and then some. The flowers of this strain generate a CBD level of 21% alongside THC quantities at or below 1%. Such a staggering ratio makes Solomatic CBD the strain of choice for medicinal and recreational users seeking the therapeutic effects of CBD, with absolutely no high. This expertly tailored ratio was accomplished by breeding parent strains Diesel CBD and Asia CBD Auto. The flowers of this strain offer pleasant flavours of citrus and sweetness.
Solomatic CBD grows to a medium height both indoors and outdoors. Indoor plants peak at 120cm and yield up to 475g/m². Outdoor plants grow to 150cm in height and yield 110–150g/plant. The ruderalis genes within this strain make the grow cycle short, and she’ll be ready to harvest in as little as 9 weeks after sprouting.

DANCE WORLD
Dance World might seem like a strange thing to call a plant variety, but these are some of the best cannabis seeds for those who prefer an uplifting feel. It is a hybrid strain and it has been specially designed to produce some of the most sought-after results in the industry.
It grows like an indica plant, reaching a maximum height of 90cm on average, but the effects are not like indica. The high amount of CBD in this plant allows it to provide a motivational high – hence its name.
Another benefit to this particular plant is that it is perfect for those who want to be a bit more discreet when it comes to growing cannabis seeds. It is not as fragrant during growth or drying as many of its counterparts. When smoked, it produces an aroma that is spicy and fruity.

EUPHORIA
Euphoria weed seeds are widely available these days; it is a favorite among those who prefer the strains of cannabis that do not cause extreme drowsiness. It has a fruity and sweet scent, making for a pleasant smoke.
It contains 80% indica and only 20% sativa, so it produces more euphoria than sleepiness in users. It is well-known for providing ample pain relief and some respite from anxiousness, and it is also perfect for growing indoors (as are most indica plants) since it only reaches 100cm in height. Each plant produces a yield of between 400 and 450 grams.
What’s more, the CBD (cannabidiol – the active ingredient in marijuana) levels in this particular strain top out at 7% and anything over 4% is considered high. For those who are new to medical marijuana, it is often best to use this product in very small amounts at first.
