Inflammation

Anxiety and Panic Disorders

The strain's low THC doses and moderate-to-high CBD doses contribute to anxiety relief through the modulation of serotonin transmission.

Depression

Utilizing cannabis can enhance mood by promoting anandamide signaling and modulating serotonin neurotransmission, offering potential relief from depression.

Acute Pain or Post-Surgery Pain

Green Ribbon contains several anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving compounds, providing potential assistance in reducing or diverting attention from pain associated with acute or post-surgery conditions.

Dosing

Exercise caution when consuming Green Ribbon in substantial amounts, as it can exert potent relaxation effects. Individuals with limited cannabis consumption experience are advised to commence with smaller doses for safety and better acclimatization.

Growing

Cultivating Green Ribbon is straightforward, given its versatility for both outdoor and indoor growth, coupled with minimal maintenance demands throughout the growing cycle. However, it comes with a drawback – a relatively low yield. Indoor growers typically report an average of 8 ounces of buds, while outdoor cultivators observe around 11 ounces per plant.

These plants thrive in warm, Mediterranean-like climates. If you reside in such an area, outdoor cultivation in a sheltered spot is ideal. Alternatively, indoor growers can recreate similar conditions with the right setup.

Height

Green Ribbon plants attain a medium height ranging from 30 to 78 inches and yield large flowers. Outdoor cultivation promotes even larger plant sizes. Throughout the growing cycle, these plants exhibit a low-maintenance nature, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation.

Humidity and Temperature

Green Ribbon flourishes in warm, Mediterranean-like climates when cultivated outdoors. Alternatively, it proves to be an excellent choice for indoor hydroponic growth. Unlike some other medical cannabis strains, it exhibits optimal growth in more sheltered outdoor locations.

Flowering

Indoor cultivation of Green Ribbon plants typically results in a flowering time of approximately eight weeks. On the other hand, outdoor growers can anticipate harvesting their yields between late September and early October.
