Strain Of The Month - Ringo’s Gift
This month Synergy Wellness offers a special discount on our Ringo’s Gift products, one of our most popular CBD-rich strains. Ringo’s Gift is named after Lawrence Ringo, the late Northern Californian cannabis cultivator who created several of the CBD-rich strains that are the mainstay of CBD production today.
Ringo, founder of the Southern Humboldt Seed Collective, was the first Northern Californian cultivator to actively develop and stabilize cannabis strains with a high ratio of CBD. We have Ringo to thank for Sour Tsunami, Harle-Tsu, Canna-Tsu and ACDC-Tsu as well as his final creation, Ringo’s Gift. These strains are staples in the CBD therapeutic world and as research progresses we are learning more about the array of constituent cannabinoids and the ultimate capabilities of these plants.
The parent strains of Ringo’s Gift are ACDC and Harle-Tsu, both valuable CBD-rich strains in themselves. Ringo’s Gift is a 60% Sativa, 40% Indica hybrid and has a 20:1 CBD/THC cannabinoid ratio. The sativa to indica ratio produces an evenly balanced effect, the higher percentage of sativa keeps the mind energized while the indica is calming and relaxing, without any attendant lethargy. Ringo’s Gift also scores high in CBDa, CBC, CBG and THCA, cannabinoids known for their therapeutic value. The primary terpenes are myrcene, pinene and caryophyllene, these powerful oils give the flower it’s stimulating citrus, mint and spicy pepper accents.
At harvest time Ringo’s Gift bright, almost neon, green leaves surround large light green airy flowers laced with orange and brown pistils (the little curly hairs.) Unusually for CBD-rich strains Ringo’s flowers are encrusted with crystal trichomes which give it a pretty glittering frosted finish.
The evenly balanced hybrid nature of Ringo’s Gift makes it an effective tool for both mental relief and physical complaints. Tee strain is particularly useful for anxiety disorders and for chronic stress and panic attacks. A heightened ability to focus mentally, free from anxiety is noted and the strain is indicated for ADD/ADHC conditions.
In the realm of physically expressed ailments Ringo’s Gift is a popular choice for treating epilepsy, tremors and spasms, chronic body pain, arthritis, inflammation, headaches and migraines.
Synergy Wellness offers Ringo’s Gift as pure flower and as tincture in three mediums: olive oil, sesame oil and organic alcohol. All of these Ringo’s Gift products are on sale this month at a 20% discount.
