Wholesale Smalls & Mids THCA Flower
Smaller buds, big value. Smalls and mids deliver the same potency as premium top colas, but at a fraction of the price — making them ideal for pre-roll brands, dispensary value menus, and bulk extraction programs.
What Are Smalls & Mids?
Smalls are the popcorn-sized buds harvested from lower branches. Mids are medium-sized buds, usually less photogenic than top colas but still potent and aromatic. Both categories retain the same cannabinoid and terpene profiles as larger buds.
- Smalls: Compact, affordable, perfect for pre-rolls and budget jars.
- Mids: Medium-size buds that strike a balance between presentation and price.
- Colas: Large, top-shelf buds; higher cost but similar potency.
Wholesale Applications
- Dispensaries: Value-friendly eighths and quarters that keep baskets moving.
- Pre-roll brands: Ideal input material with high cannabinoid yields at lower cost.
- Extractors: Affordable biomass input without potency sacrifice.
- Retail packs: Perfect for cost-conscious customers seeking affordable cannabis.

Potency & Terpenes
Smalls and mids frequently test at 20–25% THCA, equal to their top-cola counterparts. The main difference is appearance, not potency.
Terpene content remains stable when lots are properly dried and cured. In fact, many wholesale buyers choose smalls and mids for cost-effective potency.
