Top 5 Most Popular CBD Strains of 2021
CBD soothes the body and brings peace to the mind. Unlike THC, it doesn't catalyse a high. This makes it the perfect option for elevating the mood throughout the day while remaining cognitively sound. The top 5 CBD strains of 2021 below offer massive levels of CBD alongside hefty yields.
Although researchers discovered CBD before THC, the latter gained much more attention due to its psychotropic effects. In recent years, CBD has re-entered the spotlight as a non-intoxicating cannabinoid offering numerous wellness benefits.
At Royal Queen Seeds, our expert breeders have developed high-CBD varieties containing equal levels of THC, or no THC at all, to cater to individual tastes. Some of these cultivars also contain other novel cannabinoids, including CBG.
Discover the top 5 most popular CBD strains of 2021 below. These strains have been the most sought-after by our customers, and we have also included a brand new strain that will surely be equally popular!
1. Stress Killer Automatic
The key trait of Stress Killer Automatic is summed up accurately by her name. A high level of CBD balances out a mellow THC content of 11% to produce a crystal-clear head high that boosts focus. Stress Killer Automatic can be blazed or vaped throughout the day to boost productivity and relieve symptoms without compromising the mental faculties. This ideal balance of cannabinoids was achieved by breeding Lemon Shining Silver Haze, Juanita la Lagrimosa, and a Cannabis ruderalis variety. This combination created a genetic profile of 60% sativa, 30% indica, and 10% ruderalis.
Stress Killer Automatic is an easy strain to grow and can take some abuse, making her attractive to novice growers. Indoor plants will yield up to 500g/m² and peak at a height of 140cm. Plants cultivated outdoors produce a yield of between 110–160g/plant and grow to a slightly taller height of 160cm.

2. Solomatic CBD
Solomatic CBD is a heavily indica-dominant autoflowering variety that was bred with a single goal in mind: maximum CBD, minimum THC. The breeders behind this specimen achieved that goal, and then some. The flowers of this strain generate a CBD level of 21% alongside THC quantities at or below 1%. This expertly tailored ratio was accomplished by breeding parent strains Diesel CBD and Asia CBD Auto. The flowers of this strain offer pleasant flavours of citrus and sweetness.
Solomatic CBD grows to a medium height both indoors and outdoors. Indoor plants peak at 120cm and yield up to 475g/m². Outdoor plants grow to 150cm in height and yield 110–150g/plant. The ruderalis genes within this strain make the grow cycle short, and she’ll be ready to harvest in as little as 9 weeks after sprouting.

5. Royal CBG Automatic
Royal CBG Automatic offers an entirely unique cannabinoid profile. Alongside high levels of CBD, she offers CBG quantities of 6–8%. Also known as cannabigerol, CBG rarely occurs in these levels in other strains. The molecule serves as the precursor, or building block, to cannabinoids such as THC and CBD. However, our breeders figured out how to keep CBG levels elevated all the way up to harvest. This rare strain also offers high levels of CBD and low THC levels of 0.09%.
CBG works in much the same way as CBD, with a few unique twists of its own. You’ll also experience delightful flavours of vanilla every time you take a hit. This rapid auto provides a harvest 9–10 weeks after germination. If you grow her indoors, you can expect 350–450g/m² from plants that grow to 80–90cm in height. Outdoor plants peak at 100cm and churn out 30–50g/plant.
