Market Insights Snapshot
In May 2026, Buckeye Relief’s mix tilted heavily toward Flower at 56.03% share, yet Flower volume contracted with a -31.32% year-over-year change and a -24.89% month-over-month change, while average price in Flower sat at $50.46 amid a brand-wide average price decline of -39.78% YoY. Vapor Pens expanded to 22.88% share with 30.72% YoY growth and 10.14% MoM growth, and Pre-Roll climbed to 18.71% share on 14.92% MoM growth, indicating a pivot toward inhalables outside core Flower. Edible, though small at 2.24% share, posted 509.24% YoY and 170.64% MoM growth, whereas Concentrates dropped to 0.13% share with -92.01% YoY and -80.72% MoM declines. This pattern implies Buckeye Relief is diversifying away from a weakening Flower base into faster-moving Vapor Pens, Pre-Roll, and Edible, using price elasticity to defend unit throughput despite overall brand sales at -1.10% YoY.
That category reweighting, combined with a rank of 5 in Flower within Ohio, suggests Flower remains an anchor but no longer the growth lever, with share gains in Vapor Pens and Pre-Roll buffering the -24.89% MoM and -31.32% YoY Flower declines. The surge in Edible at 509.24% YoY alongside the Vapor Pens 30.72% YoY increase signals adoption in adjacent need states, while the 0.13% Concentrates share and -80.72% MoM slide indicate a deliberate deprioritization or supply reset. The implication is a positioning shift toward broad inhalable coverage and incremental Edible presence to stabilize revenue mix, accepting lower average prices (-39.78% YoY) as a trade-off to capture volume where rank headroom outside Flower can offset the #5 Flower placement.
Competitive Landscape
Buckeye Relief is ranked #5 in OH Flower in May 2026, improving 1 place year over year but slipping 1 position since February 2026 from #4, after peaking at #1 in April 2026 before a four-rank drop. Competitively, Riviera Creek holds #1 while moving up 2 places year over year despite a 10.07% YoY sales decline, and RYTHM advanced to #2 with a 7-rank YoY climb alongside a 49.23% YoY sales increase, outpacing Buckeye Relief’s recent quarter-on-quarter rank dip from #4 to #5. Further pressure comes from Klutch Cannabis jumping 16 ranks to #3 with 161.12% YoY sales growth while Neighborgoods sits at #4 with a 3-rank YoY rise but a 1.70% YoY sales contraction, indicating Buckeye Relief’s YoY rank gain coexists with accelerating competitors and a brief April 2026 peak that implies momentum volatility rather than sustained share capture.
Notable Products
Lemon Dosidos Pre-Roll (1g) posted the steepest decline in May 2026 with a -39.9% month-over-month change while holding rank 6, contrasting with Honey Crisp (2.83g) at rank 5 slipping a lighter -7.1%. Pre-Rolls concentrate four of the top ten slots (ranks 1, 6, 7, 9), led by Cloud Breaker Infused Pre-Roll 5-Pack (2.5g) at rank 1, which implies Buckeye Relief’s volume is consolidating around multi-pack and infused formats even as single-stick velocity softens.
Edibles cluster tightly at ranks 2, 3, and 4 with no reported month-over-month swings, while Flower straddles premium eighths at rank 5 and value Smalls at rank 10, the latter carrying the single largest dollar total at $177,439. The mix of four Pre-Rolls in the top ten alongside three Edibles suggests a pivot toward repeatable, format-driven trips, with Flower acting as a barbell between premium and value to stabilize share as single-stick Pre-Rolls retrench.
