So... What the hell are terpenes???
I'm glad you asked random citizen! Terpenes or "terps" are basically the seasoning of weed if that make sense. They are aromatic compounds found in cannabis that affect its taste, smell, and feel. Terps work with THC & CBD from the entourage effect, which is a theory that suggests the compounds within the cannabis plant work in concert with each other and using them together may provide more significant therapeutic effects vs using them separately. When looking to buy, terps matter way more than THC % (imo) because no matter how high that percentage is, you won't get high if it doesn't match the vibe of high your going for. :/
