The New Jersey brand is betting that shoppers would rather understand a formula than stare at another giant THC number.
Legal weed has a horsepower problem. Open a dispensary menu and the products often collapse into the same pitch: stronger, louder, faster, higher. The THC number gets the biggest type. Everything else gets pushed toward the back of the package, where a customer may find it after the budtender has already said, “This one hits.”
Good Times cannabis takes a more useful approach. Its Hokkaido Watermelon gummy puts a 2:2:1 ratio of THC, CBG, and CBD near the center of the conversation.

That sounds simple. In cannabis, simple takes …
