Hey everyone, Sid here. I’ve been geeking out on plant chemistry lately, and today I wanted to talk about Linalool. If you’ve ever cracked open a jar and been hit with a distinct floral, lavender-like aroma, you’re smelling this terpene. It’s the exact same compound that gives lavender and coriander their signature scents, which is pretty cool when you think about how these plants connect in nature. In the garden, you'll often find higher levels of Linalool in strains like Lavender, LA Confidential, and Amnesia Haze. When it comes to how it makes you feel, it is commonly associated with calming, anti-anxiety effects, according to research by Russo, E.B. (2011) in the British Journal of Pharmacology. I just love how these tiny molecules shape our whole experience with the plant. What's your take on it? I'm not a doctor — this isn't medical advice, just what's commonly reported. Talk to a healthcare provider about what's right for you. — Internet of Pot
