Terpene: Myrcene
Terpene: Myrcene is the most abundant terpene in cannabis, making up as much as 65% of the total terpene profile in some strains.
Aroma: Earthy, fruity, clove-like
Fun fact: Anecdotal evidence suggests, when eating a ripe mango prior to consuming cannabis may accentuate an intense high and extend the psychoactive effects of cannabis.
Some studies suggest that sedative indica-like effects occur in strains containing more than.5% of this terpene.
