If you're shopping for cannabis in Six Nations or the Brantford area, understanding THC and CBD potency can make all the difference in choosing the right product.
At High On A Hill, we believe cannabis education is just as important as selection. Whether you’re new to cannabis or an experienced consumer, knowing how to read labels and understand potency helps you shop with confidence.
What Does Cannabis Potency Mean?
Cannabis potency refers to the amount of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol) in a product.
THC is the cannabinoid responsible for psychoactive effects.
CBD does not produce a high but may influence how THC feels.
In Ontario’s regulated cannabis market, every product sold at licensed retailers including here at High On A Hill in Six Nations must clearly display potency levels on the packaging.
How to Read Cannabis Labels in Ontario
When visiting a dispensary in Six Nations or ordering online from High On A Hill, here’s what you’ll see:
Potency shown as a percentage Example: 20% THC = 200 mg THC per gram
Potency shown as milligrams per package or per piece Example: 5 mg THC per gummy
Often listed as total mg per bottle plus mg per dose.
Understanding these numbers helps you compare products across categories.
Choosing the Right Potency for You
When customers visit our Six Nations cannabis shop, one of the most common questions we hear is:
“What THC percentage should I choose?”
Here’s a general guide:
Low THC (under 10%) – Often preferred by beginners or those wanting milder effects
Moderate THC (10–20%) – Popular with regular consumers
High THC (20%+) – Best suited for experienced users
Remember: Higher THC does not automatically mean better quality it simply means stronger effects.
THC vs CBD: Why Balance Matters
Some consumers in the Brantford and Six Nations area prefer products with balanced THC and CBD ratios.
CBD may influence how THC feels, and some people find balanced products provide a more moderate experience.
If you’re unsure what ratio suits you, our team at High On A Hill is always available to guide you.
