Cate Harrington

Cate Harrington is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that originated in London, created by Pornoseed, a London-based seed bank. This strain was developed as a homage to UK adult film performer Cate Harrington, representing an unusual naming convention in cannabis breeding history. The strain is a cross between Lowryder, a modest sativa-dominant hybrid, and Helmand, an obscure Afghani landrace strain. Cate Harrington is classified as an indica-dominant hybrid with a sativa/indica ratio of approximately 30:70.

The strain exhibits typical indica-dominant characteristics with THC levels usually hovering around 18%, though some sources report moderate THC levels of roughly 14% in some tests. CBD levels are very low, less than 1%, making it less suitable for conditions that benefit from high CBD content. The buds display dark and light green coloration with a dusting of trichome crystals, presenting an attractive appearance typical of quality cannabis genetics.

The strain is particularly noted for its distinctive flavor profile that combines fruit and bubble gum notes with hints of skunk, creating a unique and appealing taste experience. Like its namesake performer, Cate Harrington the strain is most popular in the UK, though it has also found its way to medical markets in California. The strain represents an interesting intersection of cannabis breeding, pop culture, and international cannabis distribution networks.
