How does cannabis fit into Central American and Caribbean cultures?

Cannabis has spiritual and cultural relevance in many Central American and Caribbean societies. Jamaican Rastafarianism for instance considers cannabis a sacramental herb.

What does hybrid cannabis strain phenotypic variation mean?

Individual plants in a hybrid strain can vary in colour, height, and bud structure. Breeders can improve and stabilise desired traits by selecting certain phenotypes and thereby improve the strain.

Do you know which terpenes give these strains their fruity flavour?

Sure! The sweet, mango-like aroma of myrcene is said to relax, while limonene is said to boost mood with its zesty scent. Caryophyllene is peppery, pinene adds a crisp, piney and apple note, while terpinolene adds citric, floral, herbal, and piney notes.

Why do some high-yielding strains have long vegetative stages?

A longer vegetative growth period is said to be what helps these plants build a solid structure. This sturdy base is reportedly necessary in order to support the weight of their many buds during flowering.

Why is flowering time important for phenotypic expression?

Terpenes and cannabinoids, which give plants their flavours and effects, develop during flowering. This time is said to ensure a complete manifestation of the plant's potential by allowing for a richer, more nuanced profile than faster-flowering strains.
