Flavonoids

Flavonoids are one of the lesser-known compounds in cannabis, and little is known about the flavonoids present in each strain because they are rarely tested. Like terpenes, flavonoids add to each strain’s flavor and fragrance profile.

Studies have shown that the major flavonoids present in all cannabis plants are cannflavins A, B, and C.

Medical Applications

Because Avi-Dekel is a high-CBD product, it’s been reported to be extraordinarily helpful in helping treat chronic pain conditions, arthritis, other rheumatic disorders, and even anxiety.

Multiple sclerosis (MS)

One study even found that using Avi-Dekel extracts as a treatment for multiple sclerosis worked just as well as a standard immunomodulatory medication that is used as a treatment for multiple sclerosis in mice.

Chronic Pain, Muscle Pain and Other Types of Pain

Cannabis contains anti-inflammatory and analgesic compounds that can help reduce or distract from pain, including THC, CBD, and beta-caryophyllene.

Arthritis

Not only can medical marijuana relieve the physical pain that comes with arthritis, but it can also relieve the mental symptoms that often follow.

Depression

Cannabinoids like CBD can help modulate serotonin transmission, giving it anti-depressant and anxiolytic effects.

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)

Utilizing CBD and other phytocannabinoids and terpenes in cannabis may help replace the lost endocannabinoids, helping treat pain and mood disorders associated with NF1 gene mutations. Using THC may help boost dopamine levels in the brain.

Medical cannabis may also help reduce the intake of stimulant medications. Terpenes like beta-caryophyllene and limonene may be beneficial for reducing the intake of stimulants and addiction in general.

Seizures/seizure disorders

There is now a considerable body of evidence showing that cannabidiol (CBD) can help reduce the frequency of seizures in people suffering from Dravet syndrome or Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, which are particularly severe and treatment-resistant forms of childhood epilepsy.

Dosing

CBD won’t intoxicate people if it’s taken in a medically relevant dosage. There is no maximum dosage when it comes to CBD. The oil and capsules are best taken with fatty foods for better absorption in the body. The best results of the dosage’s effect occur at the six-week mark. Alternatively, people using Avi-Dekel in a vaporizer can take puffs throughout the day, meaning that they can feel the relieving effects relatively fast.

Growing

Avi-Dekel seeds are not available for public purchase, so the best option is to clone the strain from another plant. It’s best growing in warm or Mediterranean climates, or inside in a greenhouse.

Height

It’s unlikely for Avi-Dekel to grow higher than 6 feet when grown either indoors or outdoors. The plant tends to grow more laterally than vertically and will need support to prvent the stems and branches from breaking under the weight. The leaves will need to be trimmed so that more light can reach more of the plant. If the plant is in the appropriate climate, it should produce up to 16 ounces of buds per square meter.

Humidity and Temperature

A greenhouse or hydroponics system set at 50% humidity is ideal for Avi-Dekel. The strain prefers a warm climate of around 26°C and will likely prefer the same growing atmospheres as other indica plants.

Flowering

Information on how to cultivate this miraculous strain is hard to find, but the general consensus is that its indoor flowering time starts at around eight weeks.
