WHAT IS THE BEST INDICATOR FOR HIGH QUALITY CANNABIS? SMELL.

Those who shop for weed based on THC percentages beware: When it comes to determining what kind of weed will be premium cannabis and a great experience, it’s the nose that knows.

Dr. Ethan Russo cannabis researcher

So says these recent journal findings from Ethan Russo, MD, a board-certified neurologist, psychopharmacology researcher, Director of Research at the International Cannabis and Cannabinoids Institute, and former Senior Medical Advisor to GW Pharmaceuticals. In Psychoactives Journal, Russo and his team recently found that it was not terpene expression, THC potency, or THC dose, but rather a ‘pleasant subjective aroma’ is what was positively correlated with pleasant subjective effects. “These results suggest that, unlike THC potency, pleasant aroma is predictive of pleasant subjective effects,” says the paper. “Similar to other agricultural commodities such as coffee and tea, aroma appears to be a robust indicator of the quality of cannabis inflorescence.” 

In other words, as anyone who has been a cannabis consumer for decades will tell you…

Nothing beats your nose and your eyes when it comes to buying weed!

In the days when nobody tested for or cared about THC percentages on a label, it was the nose that led the way on what was the best premium marijuana flower to be found. And now that recreational cannabis options include our Smash Hits cannabis grown by Chemdog and the entire cultivation team here at Canna Provisions, let your nose and eyes guide you right to any of our new Smash Hits staff picks on flower like:
