[0077] ‘DRG2’ can have a cannabinoid profile as set forth in Table 1 and a terpene profile as set forth in Table 2. Due to the natural variability of chemotypic expression that is commonly observed in Cannabis plants, arising from numerous causes such as cultivation conditions, the values set forth in the tables do not reflect the only possible range of outcomes that can be obtained from plants of the new variety. Thus, these values are merely exemplary of observed values (middle column) and predicted normal variations from the observed values.
