Red Kross

Classification: CBD-rich Hemp / Non-intoxicating CBD Cultivar

Hook: 
Red Kross is a CBD-rich hemp cultivar known for fruity flavor, low intoxication potential, and a functional daytime profile. It is best understood as a hemp-focused cannabinoid variety rather than a traditional high-THC cannabis strain, making it useful for patients seeking clarity, comfort, and CBD support without a strong psychoactive effect.

Lineage: 
Baox x Finola
Originally associated with Pharmers Hemp in Alaska.

Aroma / Flavor / Appearance: 
Red Kross is commonly described with fruity, sweet, herbal, floral, citrus, and light earthy notes. The flavor can lean mild, clean, fruity, and slightly grassy, with a soft hemp-forward finish. Buds may show lighter hemp-style structure, green coloring, orange pistils, moderate resin, and variable density depending on phenotype, grow quality, and cure.

Effects & Use: 
Expect a clear, functional, non-intoxicating experience when the product is truly low in THC. Red Kross may pair well with daytime routines, low-stress focus, stretching, recovery time, body comfort, or patients seeking cannabinoid support without feeling heavily impaired. Patients should still check lab results because THC levels, CBD levels, and compliance can vary by grower and batch.

Medical / Wellness Use: 
Commonly chosen by consumers looking for CBD-focused support, stress balance, inflammation support, body comfort, and a gentler cannabis experience. Because Red Kross is a hemp cultivar, patients should evaluate the actual CBD, THC, and terpene numbers on the lab label rather than assuming the effect from the strain name alone.

Grow Notes: 

• Harvest Window: Around 90–110 days depending on phenotype and growing conditions
• Outdoor: Best evaluated by region, hemp compliance rules, climate, and harvest timing
• Hemp-style structure may vary depending on whether the plant leans more Baox or Finola
• Can express fruity, sweet, herbal, floral, citrus, earthy, and mild hemp aromatics late in flower
• CBD-rich expressions should be confirmed through lab testing when selecting keeper phenotypes
• Low-THC compliance depends on genetics, environment, harvest timing, testing method, and jurisdictional rules
• Best evaluated by breeder source, cannabinoid ratio, phenotype, grower notes, freshness, and lab-tested flower

Lab Profile: 

• THC: Usually very low / hemp-focused, but lab testing is required
• CBD: Moderate to high depending on phenotype and batch
• Terpenes: Myrcene, Caryophyllene, Limonene, Pinene, Humulene
