Effects
Flavors & aroma
Dominant terpenes
Myrcene
Earthy, musky, ripe fruitThe most common cannabis terpene; associated with relaxing, heavy 'couch' character.
Limonene
Bright citrus, lemon, orangeAssociated with uplifted, stress-relieving character.
Caryophyllene
Black pepper, spice, woodThe only terpene that also binds cannabinoid receptors; peppery and warming.
Grower's notes
Compact plant, typical OG structure. Sensitive to overwatering and overfeeding — less is more. The banana terps develop fully during a slow cure. Support heavy colas late.
