Plants need #light to #grow, and #cannabis is no different. But what happens when you change the type of light used to grow it? Well, a recently published review and analysis of available scientific research is telling us just how important different light spectrums can be when it comes to #growing cannabis. Essentially, the type of light you use affects the #phytochemistry of the plant, which then results in different outcomes. Some of those outcomes include increased production and accumulation of #cannabinoids, terpenes, and #flavonoids. This is great news, considering their medicinal value and therapeutic applications, but how the light changes these different profiles of the plant is an interesting mystery we are still working to understand fully.

Throughout the natural world, terpenes work their magic. They discharge pleasing fragrances from enumerable plants like hops, flowers, #cannabis, #grapefruits, or #tea. The fragrances float on air finding their way into our noses where they might invoke nostalgias for past experiences or make us marvel at a mesmerizing new scent. Once encountered by our bodies, terpenes provide many #medicinal opportunities to us such as their anti-cancer, #antiviral, or anti-anxiety properties.

One of the most interesting aspects of the terpene is it’s use for communication throughout nature. #Honeybees use terpenes to talk to each other and rear their young, while plants wield a powerful arsenal of terpenes to defend themselves and to warn their neighbors of impending trouble from plant-eaters. As such, terpenes have been labeled as “infochemicals.”

Terpenes are diverse: more than 80,000 are known, and many remain unknown. Zhou & Pichersky call terpenes the “largest, most chemically, structurally and functionally diverse class of chemicals in living organisms.” These researchers recently highlighted new developments in this area, emphasizing that, although basic biosynthetic pathways are shared by all plants, there are many unique ways in how plants synthesize certain terpenes.

Initially, all terpenes come from isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylally diphosphate (DMAPP). Plants generate these 5-carbon (C5) building blocks via two pathways: the methylerythritol 4-phosphate (MEP) pathway and the mevalonate (MVA) pathway. Plants like cannabis transport the precursor molecules, IPP and DMAPP, to trichomes where they are transformed by enzymes known as terpene synthases.

#Terpenes play a major role in the #therapeutic effects of #cannabis, but the same terpenes in cannabis are also found in other plants. #Linalool, for example, is found in some cultivars of cannabis but is also produced in high percentages by lavender. Limonene tends to give some cannabis a citrusy aroma, which makes sense, considering it’s also found in lemons and oranges.

The therapeutic #benefits of these and other terpenes are well documented. Many studies have proven that terpenes from cannabis and other plants have anti-inflammatory, anti-plasmodial, #antiviral, #anticancer, #antidiabetic, #antidepressant, and several other beneficial properties. Because of the important medical benefits of terpenes, and the fact that natural cannabis terpenes are often degraded or lost during many extraction methods, terpenes extracted from other plants, like lavender and lemons, are often added into products like edibles, oils, and concentrates.

Lovers of wine may know of sulfur dioxide (SO2). This widely used, effective preservative helps wine maintain its quality and color. That said, the sulfur in wine can trigger headaches, hives, diarrhea, stomach pain, and allergic asthma. Talk about a buzz kill. With this in mind, a group of researchers recently looked at replacing SO2 in wine with the monoterpene α-pinene.

They made their own white wine with Golden Muscat grapes, sucrose, and yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). After a little filtration, they meted out the preservatives: on the one hand, SO2 at 40 ppm according to “commercial practice,” and on the other hand, α-pinene at concentrations of 0.03125 g/100 mL, 0.0625 g/100 mL, and 0.125 g/100 mL. A control without any preservative rounded out the lineup. They aged the wine for 1, 30, and 180 days.

#Cannabis is a new #agricultural crop, so it is important to begin to understand its impact on #greenhouse gas #emissions considering growing threats from #climate change. #Cultivating cannabis in a commercial setting can require high energy and water use for irrigation, lighting, and climate control. A new study evaluates the #energy and materials used to grow indoor cannabis and quantifies the corresponding greenhouse gas emissions.

Since recreational cannabis legalization in #Colorado and #Washington in 2012, cannabis in the US has grown into an industry with $13.6 billion in annual sales. Colorado alone sells more than 530 tons of legally grown cannabis flower per year. As states continue to embrace legalization, that number will continue to grow.

When I was researching for The Cannabis Terpene Ex

When I was researching for The Cannabis Terpene Experience, the strange dichotomy that terpenes depict was rather eye-opening. Terpenes carry with them medicinal properties of enormous magnitude, such as anticancer properties, anti-anxiety properties, and an effectiveness against bacteria, parasites, and viruses including COVID-19.

These properties resemble the yin and yang — some kind of cosmic balance of healing (of us) and annihilation (of things that hurt us). All sorts of thoughts danced in my brain because although I was (and am) an avid floraphile, I did not know the full extent of specific plants’ philanthropy, as told by the scientific literature.
