Terpenes

Going to copy over some of the old thread stuff in a moment, but to start with the new interest...

Humulene? Is this one responsible for the creeper effect? In a specific way, if so. I'm getting vibes of it slowing oxidant reactions specifically, as it seems to move the doseage response curve in its entirely as well as magnify the underlying effects in doing so. I've had creeper-questions before, and historical says differently than the Humu. Current testing, two samples, a little more conclusively analyzed due to higher tolerance. Ocilene was the only other unknown Terp in one of the two current samples.

Previous thoughts:

"Terpinolene or Valencene
- One of these seems to be responsible for the Creeper effect"

Finding these odder selections is a challenge, but being more comfortable with sativas has definitely widened the playing field for investigation

old thread copies:

Limonene = , smiles and quiet happy, i would add empty of the forebrain distraction
As suggested by Yvaud, and seemingly confirmed by myself. It's 3.57-6.10 in most of the ones i've confirmed i like for leaning that direction.

Terpinolene = lower body focus, non-distracting, valuable for clear-headed tasks but without the jitteriness of must-work hyper-sativas
For sample I'm looking at a profile that is an incredible 19mg/g. Without other comparatives on the Terpinolene, the runner-ups in this batch are 5.33 of Ooimene and 4.96 of Limonene

Terpinolene - as an add on to this one I think it was really good at making me sleepy and for getting good sleep. Probably its highest benefit with consistent use.

Caryophyllene - 0.85%
This one I was sampling around end of summer that I was specifically recommending for being awesome in several ways. More energetic, but wide positive energy rather than manic spikes or restlessness. Definitely another one for the smileys too Very well balanced sense of both intoxication and clarity. Lower inclusions in my own selection of this were 0.27% of both Limonene and Myrcene

Either the Caryo or the Limo can cause some extreme hangovers in super-doses, but i've only once or twice had a high enough concentration to hit that

Linalool - also getting sleepy vibes with this one, which is rarely found without high Limonene.

Pinene (alpha and beta) - have not had any ability to significantly test a difference between the alpha and beta isomers, sometimes due to not knowing and often due to both being present. as indicated by Matthew and confirmed, this is an awesome "get shit done" terpene. Focus focus and focus, with a little bit of extra energy but not unbalanced in so

Myrcene is an odd one. Heavy impact on flavor. Noticeable impact on body buzz. Seems to be a common assist on the ones I'm targeting (ie Caryophyllene and Limonene). But on the whole not adding a ton when it's spiked by itself. Easy to build tolerance to. And also seems to really cause skunk weed odor, for which I avoid it

Ocimene - got to try that one prevalent in some Northern Lights but it did not overly spike in any noticeable way.

Formalizing.
1mg/g = 1mg/1000mg = 0.1%
6.1mg/g = 0.61%
0.26% = 2.6mg/g
