Sativa Or Indica? That's Just A Sales Pitch From The Dispensary | feat. Jeremy Johnson
Matt Robertson is joined by Jeremy from Harmony Extracts, a concentrate company specializing in hash and live resin to discuss, sativa or indica (?), and how terpenes impact the effects of cannabis beyond just THC content.
He also critiques the oversimplified sativa/indica categorization used in dispensaries and emphasizes the benefits of consuming concentrates, which preserve more of the plant's natural terpene profile. The conversation covers topics like pheno hunting, exotic genetics, and the health advantages of low-temperature dabbing. Overall, the episode provides valuable insights into the science and nuances of the cannabis industry.
Also in this episode:
- Harmony Extracts focuses on producing high-quality hash and live resin concentrates by preserving the terpene profiles of their cannabis strains.
- Pheno hunting is the process of growing out multiple plants from the same seed to find unique phenotypes with distinct terpene and flavor profiles.
- The sativa/indica classification system used in dispensaries is often oversimplified, as the effects of cannabis are more nuanced and dependent on terpenes.
- Terpenes play a crucial role in enhancing the bioavailability and effects of THC, beyond just the cannabinoid content.
- Consuming concentrates can be a healthier option than smoking flower, as it involves lower temperatures and less plant material being inhaled.
- Harmony Extracts is launching a new line of rosin products, which they plan to present in a unique "hash coin" format.
