Suzy-Q
Also known as: Suzy Q, Suzy Q CBD
What is the Suzy-Q strain?
Suzy-Q is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 1.0% THC, known for its calm effects and earthy and herbal flavor profile.
Suzy-Q is a distinguished high-CBD cannabis strain that emerged in the mid-2010s as part of Northern California's craft cannabis movement. Developed by Burning Bush Nurseries in collaboration with Project CBD, this strain was intentionally bred to maximize therapeutic properties while minimizing psychoactive effects. The genetic lineage remains proprietary, though it was likely developed from hybrid stock containing known CBD contributors similar to AC/DC or Harlequin backgrounds.
This evenly balanced hybrid (50% indica/50% sativa) produces small to medium-sized, spade-like buds that taper from a wide base to a pointed tip. The flowers display deep shades of olive green with reddish-orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes. Suzy-Q is renowned for its exceptional CBD-to-THC ratio, with some phenotypes testing as high as 59:1, making it ideal for medical patients seeking cannabis benefits without intoxication.
The strain exhibits a rich, woodsy aromatic profile dominated by fresh pine scents, underscored by earthy musk reminiscent of damp soil. When broken apart, the flowers release additional hash and spice notes. Suzy-Q has become a benchmark strain for accessible, non-intoxicating cannabis that maintains the traditional flower experience while delivering potent therapeutic benefits.
