Medikit

Medikit CBD Cannabis Seeds by Buddha Seeds

Medikit is a feminised CBD cannabis seed from Buddha Seeds that delivers up to 20% CBD with less than 1% THC — bred specifically for growers who want therapeutic cannabidiol without the head change. Created by crossing a backcrossed California Harlequin CBD sativa with an indica descended from selective Latin American CBD varieties, Medikit produces dense, resin-coated flowers with a complex terpene profile that actually tastes good. That last bit matters more than you'd think — most CBD strains taste like cardboard. This one doesn't.

Why Medikit CBD Seeds Stand Out

Most CBD-dominant strains force you to pick a side: either you get serious cannabidiol content and zero flavour, or you get decent taste with mediocre CBD numbers. Medikit sidesteps that trade-off. Buddha Seeds spent years stabilising this cross — a backcrossed California Harlequin on the sativa side, paired with a carefully selected Latin American CBD indica — and the result is a plant that pushes up to 20% CBD while keeping its terpene profile intact.

And those terpenes are genuinely interesting. When you crack open a cured bud, you get a wave of sweet citrus — lemon and orange dominate — followed by a tropical mango note that sits underneath. Then there's a subtle earthiness, a touch of pine wood and damp soil, that grounds the whole thing and stops it from being one-dimensionally sweet. It's the kind of complexity you'd expect from a recreational strain, not a CBD workhorse. We've smelled plenty of CBD flower over the years, and this one actually makes you want to stick your nose back in the jar.

The honest limitation? Medikit is a photoperiod strain, not an autoflower. That means you need to manage your light cycle — 12/12 to trigger flowering. If you're after a set-and-forget grow, Buddha Seeds does offer a Medikit Auto variant (different product, shorter cycle, smaller yields). But if you're willing to put in the light management, the photoperiod version rewards you with significantly bigger harvests.

Medikit CBD Yield and Growing Performance

Medikit is a genuinely productive plant. Indoors under a 12/12 light cycle, expect up to 480g/m² — that's competitive with plenty of THC-dominant strains, which is unusual for a CBD cultivar. The flowering phase runs about 75 days, which is reasonable for a plant producing this much resin.

Outdoors is where Medikit really flexes. In optimal conditions — full sun, good soil, adequate feeding — individual plants can produce between 1000 and 1500 grams each. That's not a typo. She grows with explosive vigour, developing very large, densely packed flowers coated in thick layers of sparkling trichomes. Harvest time falls in early October for outdoor growers in the Northern Hemisphere.

The growth pattern leans slightly indica-dominant in structure despite the sativa genetics in the mix. You'll see sturdy branches that can support the heavy colas, though some support (stakes or a trellis net) won't hurt during late flowering when those buds really pack on weight. Running 8–9 plants per square metre indoors with a 2–3 week vegetative period is a solid starting configuration. Some growers prune the lower branches to push energy toward the canopy — standard practice, and Medikit responds well to it.

CBD Content and Terpene Profile of Medikit

The headline number is up to 20% CBD, with THC consistently below 1%. That ratio — roughly 20:1 or higher — means Medikit produces a non-intoxicating effect. No head change, no couch lock, no impaired function. According to a review published in Pharmacotherapy, THC (Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol) has been determined to have the primary psychoactive effects, while other cannabinoid compounds contribute differently to the overall profile (PubMed 23386598). With THC below 1%, Medikit sits firmly on the non-psychoactive side of that equation.

The terpene profile breaks down like this:

That combination of high CBD and rich terpene content is what makes Medikit a standout in the medicinal seed category. Terpenes aren't just about flavour — they're part of what researchers call the entourage effect, where multiple plant compounds work together rather than in isolation. A CBD strain with a flat terpene profile is like decaf coffee that also tastes like nothing. Medikit avoids that trap entirely.

Research into CBD's therapeutic potential continues to expand. According to a review examining the abuse liability and neurocognitive effects of cannabinoids, CBD has been studied across multiple clinical contexts with a favourable safety profile compared to THC-dominant preparations (PMC7279709). Medikit's below-1% THC content places it squarely in the category of strains suited for users who want cannabidiol's properties without psychoactive interference.

How to Grow Medikit CBD Seeds

1. Germinate your feminised Medikit seeds using the paper towel method or directly in a starter plug. Keep temperatures between 20–25°C and maintain moisture without waterlogging. Taproots typically emerge within 24–72 hours.
2. Transplant seedlings into their growing medium once the taproot is 1–2cm long. Medikit performs well in soil and hydro setups alike. For outdoor growing, wait until nighttime temperatures consistently stay above 10°C.
3. Vegetate under 18/6 or 20/4 light for 2–3 weeks indoors. Medikit grows vigorously during veg, so don't overdo it unless you have headroom. Topping or LST (low-stress training) during this phase helps create an even canopy.
4. Switch to 12/12 lighting to trigger flowering. The flowering phase runs approximately 75 days. Outdoor growers can let nature handle the light transition — Medikit will flower naturally as days shorten in late summer.
5. Support heavy branches during weeks 5–8 of flowering. Those dense, resin-coated colas get seriously heavy. A SCROG net or bamboo stakes prevent snapped branches and heartbreak.
6. Harvest when trichomes are mostly cloudy with minimal amber — this typically maximises CBD content. Outdoor growers in the Northern Hemisphere should expect to harvest in early October.
7. Dry in a dark, ventilated space at 18–22°C and 55–60% humidity for 7–14 days. Cure in glass jars for at least 2–4 weeks, burping daily for the first week. Proper curing brings out those sweet citrus and mango terpenes.
