Strain FAQ
Is there a peppery element on caramel tasting strains?
Yes, surprisingly! When combined with sweeter terpenes, The terpene caryophyllene's spicy, peppery flavour intensifies the caramel taste.
What makes South East Asian cannabis strains' THCV unique?
Some South East Asian strains have significant levels of Tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV), a cannabinoid that can reportedly decrease hunger and give a clear-headed, energetic high. These strains' greater THCV concentration makes them special in the cannabis world.
Has cannabis potency altered over time?
Cannabis, a decade ago, reportedly used to have less than 10% THC across the board. Modern breeding methods have quickly resulted in boosted potency with legal breeders striving to accommodate the desire for stronger and stronger cannabis strains. Where strains with 10% to 19% THC were once the strongest, we are now almost getting into 30% and beyond!
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.
How have indica strains been used traditionally?
Indica strains were used in ancient medicines and rituals long before they became popular among cannabis users. This strong cultural connection shows indica strains' extensive past in human history.
