Top 10 Berry Strains of All Time
What’s more refreshing than a juicy berry weed strain after a long hard day? That subtle sweetness with a tang of bitterness to pull it all together – there’s not much that can compete with that!
But what makes berry strains of weed so appetizing, and how can weed even smell like berries to begin with? After all, they aren’t related to berries in any way, are they? Keep reading to find out all there is to know about the most enchanting strains on the market and which berry weed strains come out on top.
Why Does Some Weed Smell Like Berries?
Just to cut the suspense, no, cannabis is not directly related to berries! It might be a distant cousin via the Rosales order, but this has nothing to do with where cannabis gets its famous range of smells and flavors from.
All cannabis strains get their unique aromas from the terpenes they develop during flowering. The most common terpenes found in cannabis plants include myrcene, pinene, limonene, linalool, humulene, and terpinolene. These terpenes often band together to create a smell and taste reminiscent of something we’re familiar with, such as strawberries or cheese.
In this case, the berry flavor can be made up of many combinations of terpenes to create a berry sweetness or bitterness unique to each berry weed strain. Linalool and limonene are very common in berry weed strains, as the fruity sweetness of limonene complements the herbal bitterness of linalool.
However, each strain's berry-like flavor can spur from any variety of terpenes. Sometimes, nature just works her magic!
Therapeutic Qualities of Berry Weed Terpenes
The beauty of terpenes is that they not only make cannabis smell and taste delicious but can also drastically affect the high experienced from each strain when combined with cannabinoids.
Some popular effects associated with terpenes commonly found in berry cannabis include:
- Limonene - Antidepressant, mood upliftment, stress relief
- Linalool - Pain relief, anti-anxiety, anti-depressant, released muscle tension
- Pinene - Increased energy, stress relief, pain reduction, improved focus
- Myrcene - General relaxation, sedation, pain relief, anti-anxiety
For interest's sake, myrcene is commonly found in mangos, giving weed a fruitier taste, and is largely responsible for the powerful couch-lock effect. It just goes to show how much impact terpenes can have on the effects of your favorite cannabis strains.
