Terpenes Similar to basil, lemon grass, or peppermint, cannabis emits its own unique fragrance, consisting of hydrocarbons found in the plant s resin. These hydrocarbons are a group of compounds known as terpenoids. They offer a unique and efficient way of anticipating how a strain will affect an individual, because of how they interact with active cannabinoids like tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). In the field of aromatherapy, terpenoids have been administered for their therapeutic value. Recent findings have concluded that terpenoids actually change how the body metabolizes cannabinoids like tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Understanding how to properly identify a terpenoid will enhance your knowledge of cannabis, and enable you to select a strain best suited for the intended purpose.
