Favorite strains of hemp flower for 2021
It’s hard not to love a good Hemp smoke. The taste and aroma offer something that is so much more refreshing than nasty, cancerous tobacco. And, as people have known for a long time, Hemp smokers do tend to be more happy and relaxed people.
Of course, as the legal Hemp market has grown, it has come to attract large numbers of unscrupulous merchants. Such people sell low-quality Hemp at high prices, but the seasoned connoisseur can usually avoid such scams. For those of you who aren’t so well-versed, however, you can start by familiarizing yourself with some of the hottest new strains on the market. This will tell you how good Hemp is supposed to look!
1. Diet Dank’s Black Label Series
This is some amazingly pretty bud, and “High Times” magazine gave it some very high praise indeed. This is actually a series of related strains, but all of them have distinctively dark coloration. Ordinarily, bright colors are preferred, but this is one of those pleasant exceptions. It includes the following strains:
- Slice
- Twist
- Wild Strawberry
All of these strains contain somewhere between 12% and 20% CBD, making them a great source for the medicinal user.
2. Cherry Wine
No list of the best Hemp flowers would be complete without some mention of this old favorite. Mrhempflower.com’s cherry wine was one of the first smokable Hemp strains to gain widespread popularity. It has consistently won awards for its flavor and potency, so it’s definitely an industry standard. If you want a great example of the finest bud, you couldn’t ask for better. It’s a 50/50 hybrid of Indica and Sativa strains, and some would say that it offers the best of both.
3. Delta-8 Blue Dream
Delta-8 flowers have the advantage of offering a mild, relaxing euphoria. Unlike most CBD or CBG strains, Delta-8 actually does have a little bit of a psychoactive effect. However, it seems to be devoid of the intense paranoia that some people experience from Marijuana. If you’re looking to try Delta-8 for the first time, you don’t want a weird and nonstandard strain. Instead, it’s best to stick with an old favorite like this one. Blue dream might be described as a very “safe” choice. There are more potent strains out there, but you really can’t go wrong with this one.
4. Sour G CBG Flower
We wanted to include at least one Cannabigerol-dominant variety here, as this one shows a lot of promise. Under normal circumstances, the Hemp plant does not contain enough CBG for proper harvesting. However, the development of CBG-dominant strains like this one has the potential to change all that. As this part of the industry is still growing, we are looking to the future here. This strain looks like something that could really catch on and help the CBG industry to develop. It’s basically a CBG version of Sour Diesel, and we all know how great that one can be!
5. Sour Space Candy
With a name like that, you would expect it to be a little unpleasant. However, it’s less like sucking on a lemon and a lot more like eating a piece of sour candy. It’s a cross of Sour Tsunami and Early Resin Berry. Obviously, the former is where it gets its sharp citrus taste. Those little buds are so pretty that you can understand why they reminded someone of candy. Apart from this pleasant look, SSC tends to have a very high CBD content (between 17-22%). Like most Sativa strains, it provides an uplifting and energetic kind of feeling.
6. Charlotte’s Web
This is another one of those old favorites that have maintained their popularity to the present day. In fact, it is so good that we can give it some credit for the legalization of Hemp. Because this particular strain has been found to be very effective in the treatment of children’s seizures, the Governor of Florida (Rick Scott, in case you’re wondering) signed a bill legalizing this strain. Bear in mind that this was a full four years before the federal legalization of Hemp.
You couldn’t ask for a better endorsement than that! If you are looking for a strain that is focused on medical benefits, we would probably recommend this one, especially for the treatment of seizures. There is something to be said for a record of proven effectiveness.
7. Delta-8 Elektra
On the subject of proven effectiveness, we might also talk about Elektra. Relatively unknown in the world of Marijuana, Elektra has proven to be one of the best CBD strains out there. It continues to sell very well from year to year, which is why it always shows up on lists like this. In more recent years, it has been adapted for both CBG and Delta-8 varieties, and this strain is one of the results.
Delta-8 Elektra is the closest you are going to get to smoking full-on whole Cannabis. Since it isn’t legal to do that, this is the closest you are going to get. In fact, we would say it’s probably better than most illicit weed because a lot more time and care went into its production.
Conclusion
These are just seven examples of great legal Hemp flowers. Any of these would be a great example against which to judge a new product. Let’s put it this way: If you were colonizing another planet and you could only take one Hemp seed, any of these strains would be a fine choice for that one seed. We hope that you have enjoyed our work and that you will get a chance to try some of these tasty buds before long.
