Today, we’re diving into the fascinating world of terpene profiling, a technique that’s revolutionizing how cannabis enthusiasts select and enjoy their favorite strains.
What Are Terpenes?
Terpenes are aromatic compounds found in many plants, including cannabis. They’re responsible for the distinct smells and flavors associated with different strains. But terpenes do more than just tantalize our senses; they also play a crucial role in the overall effects of cannabis.
The Science of Terpene Profiling
Terpene profiling involves analyzing the specific terpene composition of a cannabis strain. This process typically uses advanced techniques such as:
- Gas chromatography
- Mass spectrometry

These methods allow us to identify and quantify the various terpenes present in a given sample, creating a unique “fingerprint” for each strain.

1. Predict potential effects
