Balancing High
Quiet Aroma, Even Profile
The lowest total terpene load of the six clusters (7.61 mg/g) with no single terpene dominating, plus the second-highest CBD (1.06%). Patterned on the Gentle Balance chemovar cluster. "Quiet" describes the aroma, not the strength — this cluster still averaged 19.63% THC.
Where this family comes from
Patterned on the terpene cluster we call Gentle Balance — 25 of the 140 flowers in Herwig et al. (2025) (opens in new tab). The study numbered its six clusters and named none of them; the name and the effect descriptions on this page are ours.
This is not a potency rating
That cluster averaged 19.63% THC and 7.61 mg/g total terpenes. All six clusters in the study ran between 18.33% and 25.52% THC. Terpenes describe how a strain lands; they say nothing about how strong it is.

CBD-bearing Balancing High strains
The study's own conclusion proposes pairing its six terpene clusters with the existing chemotypes — THC-dominant, balanced, CBD-dominant. Terpene profile tells you how a strain smells and, we think, how it lands; chemotype tells you what is actually in it. Almost everything on the shelf is Type I, so these are the ones worth calling out.

Balancing High FAQs
What is Balancing High?
Balancing High is our name for one of the six terpene clusters identified in the 2025 German Chemovar Study (Herwig et al., DOI: 10.1089/can.2024.0127). The lowest total terpene load of the six clusters (7.61 mg/g) with no single terpene dominating, plus the second-highest CBD (1.06%). Patterned on the Gentle Balance chemovar cluster. "Quiet" describes the aroma, not the strength — this cluster still averaged 19.63% THC. The study numbered its clusters and named none of them — the name, and the "quiet aroma, even profile" framing, are ours.
