What strain are you speaking of here?
mg
I caution that strain names should not be correlated to CBD level, not even relative CBD level. For example, there are numerous posts about TBB x OGK being a high CBD cross. One might then logic that one can buy TBB from DJ Short and cross it with a likely authentic OG Kush clone. The result would be something interesting but it would not likely contain much CBD.
Without getting into mutations or epigenetics of which I know too little of, elementary Mendelian genetics tell us that chemical phenotypes or chemotypes is what matters, which is more specific than varietal or 'strain'.
If there are any trained geneticists here, what I would like to know is how we get 2:1, 1:2, 3:1, 1:3 ratios. I suspect tandem repeats, but am open to the possibility that simple codominance is not all there is to the CBD/THC ratio, that the trait is polyallelic and numbers approximately 1:2:1 are being misinterpreted. I'm not versed enough to say for sure, but can say 2:1 CBD:THC F1's do not ever seem to produce 3:1 or 1:3 or 1:2 even, but only all CBD or all THC or the 2:1 in ratios of approximately 1:2:1. The simple Bd/Bd, Bd/Bt, Bt/Bt explanation put forth by GW/Bayer does not explain the other non-1:1 ratios that seem to be whole number fractions, and not a continuum.
