Farmers: we would also love to hear from you! Do you seek out certain Terpenes when choosing new strains to grow?

On these beautiful days of summer we find ourself thinking about carene a lot as it smells like a walk through the forest and lifts your spirit in a similar fashion. Your turn!

What does Friends of Farmers Fridays mean to us? I

What does Friends of Farmers Fridays mean to us? It means supporting small craft farmers! When Oregon began recreational sales, there was no cap on how many farms would be permitted in the state. While allowing everyone who wants to grow to be a licensed farm sounds great, it created a supply and demand issue in our industry that continues today. The supply was huge, and while the demand in Oregon is large, it couldn't stand up. In 2019 a study found that Oregon was producing twice as much flower as people were using. Farms began cutting prices to be more competitive. For large farms this was easier, but Small crafters that bought into the industry early were being forced to sell their flower at rates less than it took them to grow. Over the past few years more and more small farms have had to close their doors. This is heartbreaking to us as they are more commonly the ones who were taking the time to grow it right, cleanly and sustainably. So on Fridays we celebrate brands that focus on supporting these small craft farmers and @ffepdx is doing it right. We appreciate the thoughtfulness they put into curating the farms they work with. If we are not careful we could be looking at a corporate cannabis world and choosing brands intentionally is a big first step to preventing this. Thank you Farmers Friend for being such a good friend to our Farmers! 🤗🥰

*Terpene Tuesday* Terpineol - Commonly found in li

*Terpene Tuesday* Terpineol - Commonly found in lilacs, pine trees, tea tree, star anise, eucalyptus sap, and even the herb SkullCap (cool!); this terpene contributes to the distinctive, pine smoke-based aroma of lapsang souchong tea!
Terpineol occurs naturally in over 150 plants, including cannabis. Interestingly, it is most frequently found in strains that also contain high levels of pinene; however, due to pinene’s potent aroma, terpineol can be difficult to detect when the two occur simultaneously.
It is characterized by its ability to relax the consumer, and has been shown in lab studies to decrease mobility in mice, leading some to suggest that it contributes to the couchlock effects of certain strains.

In 2007, research showed that terpineol, along with limonene and linalool, displayed significant anti-inflammatory properties when added to orange juice. A few years later, scientists re-examined this terpene's anti-inflammatory properties on rats and found that it acted as an effective gastroprotective against stomach ulcers. Not surprisingly, terpineol in isolation has some pain-relieving properties as well.

According to a 2011 study, terpineol appeared to have a powerful analgesic effect on mice without affecting motor behavior. Finally, terpineol could also be used to kill various microbial strains. One study in particular claims that terpineol was effective against all microbial strains they tested, showing serious promise for topical applications.

Strains that often test high in terpineol include Jack Herer (and all sub-strains), White Widow, GSC, Skywalker OG, Fire OG and OG Kush.

Remember that it is the synergy of multiple terpenes working and in conjunction that gives us our full effect. Each cannabis strain contains hundreds of terpenes, with three or four that are the most prominent and in highest concentration.

Happy Mushroom Monday! Today we wanted to dive more into a specific mushroom - Cordyceps 🍄. Cordyceps is unique in that it naturally grows out of caterpillars in high altitudes in China and Tibet. Ancient texts describe its usefulness for many ailments. Today this longevity mushroom is usually cultivated in rice to protect the wild stands. This mushroom boosts energy, endurance, and the immune system.

We love seeing companies blend in other forms of natural wellness to their products. @eatmorejunk adds cordyceps and B12 to their Tiger blood gummies to really put a pep in your step. More than a sativa with the clean natural energy blended in. Talk about wellness 🥰.

May the 4th be with you! What does this Whitebeam remind you off? 🤣 Magic of plants 🥰

*Terpene Tuesday* Carene, or Delta-3-Carene, conve

*Terpene Tuesday* Carene, or Delta-3-Carene, conveys a sweet, pungent scent composed of citrus, cypress, pine, and wood, but has a lemon flavor when ingested or inhaled. It is produced by plants other than cannabis, including rosemary, red peppers, pine trees, and cedar trees. Carene is utilized by the cosmetics industry as a fragrance and is employed as an insect repellent at the industrial level (it is a natural constituent of turpentine and is flammable in its concentrated form).

The first study done on this terpene was published in 1989 and demonstrated delta-3-carene may hold promise when it comes to battling acute inflammation. Some patients also have used it to dry excess fluids like tears, running noses, and excessive menstrual flow.

More importantly, researchers say that this terpene in isolation excels more than any other at repairing bones and promoting their growth. According to the 2007 study, carene significantly promoted the induction of calcium, a key sign of bone mineralization, in mice.

Delta-3-carene may be responsible for the dry mouth and redness in the eyes commonly associated with cannabis use. Often boasting a subtle lemon flavor, delta-3-carene may be effective in promoting memory retention and mental sharpness.

Strains with high contents of this terpene include AK-47, Arjan’s Ultra Haze, Jack Herer, OG Kush, and Super Lemon Haze, among others. Remember that it is the synergy of multiple terpenes working and in conjunction that gives us our full effect. Each cannabis strain contains hundreds of terpenes, with three or four that are the most prominent and in highest concentration.

*Terpene Tuesday* Linalool is the most common terp

*Terpene Tuesday* Linalool is the most common terpene responsible for scents that are full of floral notes, citrus and spice. It is also found in high quantities in Lavender, Citrus, Laurel, Birch and Rosewood and over 200 types of plants! We have studied terpenes for centuries for cosmetics and remedies- so it's no surprise that strains high in specific terpenes would share some of the effects. Now let's look closer at this Terpene:

Why would so many different plants produce linalool? Its antimicrobial properties are protective for the plant and represent a potential therapeutic use in people. Whether it was used as an early antibiotic is unknown, but linalool (often in the form of lavender or peanut stems and leaves) has been used in traditional medicine practices for its calming, sedative and anti-epileptic properties. Studies have also found that Linalool could be useful for people suffering from depression, anxiety, and pain.

Perhaps the most exciting therapeutic use for linalool is its potential as a novel Alzheimer’s disease treatment based on a study from 2016. This study was of course done on the isolated Terpene and effects vary when combined with other terpenes and cannabinoids.

Cannabis strains that tend to contain high levels of this terpene include Lavender (the strain, obviously), Skywalker OG, Headband, Ingrid, and Pink Kush.

Remember that it is the synergy of multiple terpenes working and in conjunction that gives us our full effect. Each cannabis strain contains hundreds of terpenes, with three or four that are the most prominent and in highest concentration.

*Terpene Tuesday* Linalool is the most common terpene responsible for scents that are full of floral notes, citrus and spice. It is also found in high quantities in Lavender, Citrus, Laurel, Birch and Rosewood and over 200 types of plants! We have studied terpenes for centuries for cosmetics and remedies- so it's no surprise that strains high in specific terpenes would share some of the effects. Now let's look closer at this Terpene:

Why would so many different plants produce linalool? Its antimicrobial properties are protective for the plant and represent a potential therapeutic use in people. Whether it was used as an early antibiotic is unknown, but linalool (often in the form of lavender or peanut stems and leaves) has been used in traditional medicine practices for its calming, sedative and anti-epileptic properties. Studies have also found that Linalool could be useful for people suffering from depression, anxiety, and pain.

Perhaps the most exciting therapeutic use for linalool is its potential as a novel Alzheimer’s disease treatment based on a study from 2016. This study was of course done on the isolated Terpene and effects vary when combined with other terpenes and cannabinoids.

Cannabis strains that tend to contain high levels of this terpene include Lavender (the strain, obviously), Skywalker OG, Headband, Ingrid, and Pink Kush.

Remember that it is the synergy of multiple terpenes working and in conjunction that gives us our full effect. Each cannabis strain contains hundreds of terpenes, with three or four that are the most prominent and in highest concentration. To learn about more cannabis terpenes, how to recognize them and what they do, drop us a follow!
