Harle-Tsu
Harle-Tsu
Also known as: Harlequin Tsunami, Harle Tsu
Overview
Harle-Tsu, bred by the Southern Humboldt Seed Collective, is a high-CBD hybrid cross between Harlequin and Sour Tsunami. The strain won Highest CBD award at the Emerald Cup in both 2012 and 2013, and first prize for Best CBD Flower at the 2014 Emerald Cup. While Harle-Tsu is a hybrid strain, it typically leans towards the sativa side of the spectrum and can be cultivated indoors and outdoors. The dominant feature of Harle-Tsu is its high CBD content, often exceeding 20%, and became a legend because it was one of the first strains to consistently produce an incredibly high 20:1 ratio of CBD to THC. Its stability, reliability, and powerful, non-psychoactive therapeutic effects set a new standard for medicinal cannabis. Harle-Tsu buds have fluffy and lumpy elongated grape-shaped nugs with sparse orange hairs and a super sticky coating of sweet syrupy resin.
