Pine

The pine flavor and aroma are typical of both indica and sativa strains and can vary with pine, fir, and spruce notes. Some strains may have citrus, fruity, woody, earthy, eucalyptus, menthol, lemon balm, or cedar undertones.

Characteristics

The distinctive piney organoleptic properties of cannabis are attributed to the bicyclic terpene pinene, which has a pronounced pine and fir scent. In nature, this compound is found in citrus fruits and balsamic resin. The primary effects of pinene are antiseptic and anti-inflammatory.

Consumption of pine cannabis is similar to inhalation therapy, where you get a feeling of refreshing coolness comparable to the flavor of eucalyptus lozenges. A distinctive feature of cannabis strains with cedar and pine aromas is their high yield, outstanding immunity, and genetic resistance to pests, mold, and pathogenic bacteria.

Recommendations

Do you want to treat your senses to rich pine or cedar aromas combined with fruity, citrus, spicy, and earthy nuances? Consider growing organically. If that's not possible for whatever reason, use purified, pH-ed, nutrient-free water during the last two weeks of flowering. This will wash away any chemicals that have accumulated in the buds throughout the cycle. Check the trichome color regularly, and do not miss the exact harvest time. For peak efficiency – maximum cannabinoid and terpene content – harvest when 70-80% of the trichomes are milky and the remaining trichomes are amber.
