Hey everyone, Sid here. I’ve been diving back into plant chemistry lately, and I wanted to talk about Limonene. If you’ve ever cracked open a fresh bud and got hit with that bright citrus blast—like tearing into a fresh lemon or orange peel—that’s Limonene doing its thing. It’s the same stuff you find in citrus rinds and juniper.
It’s a super interesting compound. In terms of what it does, it's commonly associated with elevated mood and stress relief, which is why people love it. (Source: Russo, E.B. (2011), British Journal of Pharmacology). If you want to seek out strains often high in it, keep an eye out for Super Lemon Haze, Wedding Cake, and Do-Si-Dos. What's your experience with these strains?
