Terpenes

Terpenes are organic hydrocarbons that are found in hundreds of plants around the world, and they are a source of a plant’s aroma and flavour. Terpenes are one way plants can defend themselves from predators. By excreting a pungent aroma, plants can repel certain bugs but can also attract the beneficial insects that they need for pollination. Today, we have discovered about 100 different terpenes in cannabis. Each particular strain has its unique types and combination of terpenes in various concentrations. Terpenes work synergistically with cannabinoids. One indication for this is that some cannabis strains may have the exact same levels of THC and CBD, yet their effects can be quite different. Researchers are now discovering that terpenes have a direct link to the efficacy of cannabinoids.
