When people talk about cannabis, they often focus on THC percentages—but the real magic lives in the terpenes. Welcome to Terpene Tuesday at NativeCare, where we break down the aromas, flavors, and effects that truly define your experience.
What Are Terpenes?
Terpenes are naturally occurring aromatic compounds found in cannabis (and many other plants like citrus, pine, and lavender). They give each strain its signature smell, taste, and personality—and they also play a powerful role in how a strain makes you feel. Energized, calm, focused, relaxed? That’s the terpene profile doing its thing.
Why Terpenes Matter More Than THC
THC tells you how strong a strain might feel—but terpenes tell you how that strength behaves. Two strains with the same THC can deliver completely different experiences depending on their terpene mix. This is called the entourage effect—when cannabinoids and terpenes work together to shape the overall vibe.
