Terpenes
Other than being the molecules responsible for cannabis’ smells and tastes, terpenes are aromatic organic compounds found in not only cannabis, but other plants as well. Majority of the public assumes that higher THC or CBD percentage means better effects, but this is not the case, there’s more science to it!
