Charlotte’s Angel CBD by Dutch Passion

Charlotte’s Angel CBD is the strain that put Dutch Passion on the map for CBD-rich genetics. This sativa-dominant feminized photoperiod averages around 15% CBD with THC always below 1%, the highest CBD level in the Dutch Passion collection, and it wraps that profile in a surprisingly loud, spicy terpene package.

She was Dutch Passion’s first low-THC variety, created by crossing Dutch Charlotte with Red Angel, a CBD-rich cutting. After years of testing, the breeders managed to lock in the chemical profile: CBD usually lands between 10% and 16%, with rare phenotypes reaching 20-25%, while THC stays between roughly 0-0.3% on some plants and 0.4-0.8% on others.

The trophy cabinet backs it up. She won 1st prize in the CBD category at the 2018 Highlife Cannabis Cup right after launch, then took 3rd at Expogrow Irun and 2nd at the CBD Rich Cup in Spain, both in 2019. That is three prizes from three different cups.

Expect a tall, vigorous plant with big buds, an XL yield rating and about 400-450 g/m² (1.31-1.47 oz/ft²) indoors, with 500+ g/m² (1.64+ oz/ft²) possible in a skilled SCROG.

Flavor, Effects, and a Mild, Clear-Headed Experience

Low THC does not mean low flavor. The aroma is spicy and herbal with strong diesel undertones, brightened by citrus and pine. Some phenotypes swing earthier, with blueberry and spice notes. The scent jumps out when you grind the dried flowers and carries through to the smoke, which surprises many growers who expect CBD strains to taste flat.

The experience is mild and relaxing rather than intoxicating. With so little THC, you will not feel stoned in the usual sense. Instead, there is a gentle, relaxed body feeling and a clear head, and some consumers describe a light sense of creativity and focus, likely helped by the terpenes. It is a popular choice for people who want the taste and ritual of a joint without a strong high.

That makes her a favorite with newcomers to cannabis flower and with anyone who prefers to stay sharp. She also delivers the same smell, taste and smoking pleasure people know from THC-rich varieties.

Growing Charlotte’s Angel CBD Feminized Seeds

She grows fast and stretches hard, in both veg and bloom. Most plants keep stretching for 4-5 weeks after the flip and can grow 150-300% taller, forming a sativa Christmas tree with large fan leaves and strong side branches. Give her room, run fewer plants per square meter and keep veg short to avoid space problems later.

She dislikes heavy feeding early on, so build nutrients up slowly; organic growing suits her well. Topping or FIMing keeps her wider and lower, and bending, snapping or supercropping all work. Trim large fan leaves that shade lower shoots. She excels in a SCROG and also works in a SOG with very short veg (max 2 weeks), or even straight into 12/12 from germination.

Most phenotypes need about 11-12 weeks of bloom, with faster, more compact phenos finishing in 8-9 weeks and sometimes showing purple or pink tones. The longest phenos may need an extra week or two. Because of that long bloom, she is mainly an indoor strain; outdoors she fits tropical and subtropical climates such as South Florida or Hawaii. Late in bloom, support the long, heavy branches.
