Terpenes are a large and diverse group of organic compounds found in many plants, including cannabis, pine trees, citrus fruits, and more. They are responsible for the distinctive aromas and flavors associated with these plants. Terpenes are produced in the resin glands of plants and serve various functions, such as attracting pollinators, repelling pests, and protecting against environmental stresses.
Terpenes are made up of carbon and hydrogen atoms and are classified as a type of hydrocarbon. They are derived from a common precursor molecule called isoprene, which combines to form different structures and configurations, resulting in the vast array of terpenes found in nature. These compounds can range from simple, volatile molecules to complex, larger structures.
In addition to their aromatic properties, terpenes have been found to have potential therapeutic effects. They can interact with the human body, including the endocannabinoid system, which is involved in regulating various physiological processes. This interaction is believed to contribute to the entourage effect—the theory that the combination of cannabinoids and terpenes in cannabis work synergistically to produce unique therapeutic effects.
Different terpenes are associated with specific scents and potential health benefits. For example, the terpene limonene is often found in citrus fruits and is associated with a citrusy aroma. It has been studied for its potential anti-inflammatory and mood-enhancing properties. Another terpene, myrcene, is commonly found in hops, thyme, and cannabis, and is known for its earthy and musky scent. It has been studied for its potential analgesic and sedative effects.
Overall, terpenes are natural compounds found in a wide range of plants that contribute to their aromas, flavors, and potential therapeutic properties.

Cannabis is a plant with many names- marijuana, weed, pot, cannabis, hash- that can have psychoactive characteristics and is consumed for medical and non-medical (recreational) purposes. The cannabis plant has hundreds of chemical compounds, including cannabinoids and terpenes.
The cannabis plant produces more than 100 different cannabinoids, which are compounds that can have different effects on the mind and body. Tetrahydrocannabinol known as “THC” and cannabidiol known as “CBD” are the most common. THC is known for its psychoactive effects (a feeling of being high). There are different forms of THC, including delta-9-THC, traditionally found in most cannabis products. However, other forms of THC, such as delta-8-THC and delta-10-THC can also be found in cannabis plants and will be included in the regulated market as part of this legislation.
CBD, or cannabidiol, is the second most prevalent cannabinoid in cannabis. Unlike THC, CBD does not cause a “high” or psychoactive effect by itself.
Hemp refers to varieties of cannabis plants that contain 0.3% or less delta-9-THC. The hemp plant has various industrial uses, as well as can be made into consumable products derived from hemp. The new adult-use legislation regulates consumable and inhalable intoxicating hemp products with other cannabis products, while exempting non-intoxicating products, such as CBD edibles, lotions, and tinctures.
