    Default Does pure thc have an odor???????????????????

    for some reason, im having a hell of a time finding the answer to this. ive read a lot that the chemical itself, PURE THC, has absolutely no scent at all. but i cant find any actual evidence to stand behind the fact.

    Now, I dont want any opinions, i want cold hard facts. give me evidence.

    just beacuse you cant smell it... it has no smell??

    have a read http://www.cannabisculture.com/node/8634
    Dogs have about 25 times more olfactory (smell) receptors than humans. These receptors occur in special sniffing cells deep in a dog’s snout and are what allow a dog to “out-smell” humans. Dogs can sense odors at concentrations nearly 100 million times lower than humans can. Here’s a comparison to help you appreciate the vast difference in olfactory ability between humans and dogs: if all the sensory epithelia (skin tissue) in the average dog’s nose were laid out flat, it would cover an area of about 450 square feet, and contained within this nasal tissue are more than 200 million scent receptors, some 15 million of which have infrared capability. That means a dog can literally smell heat! If a human’s scent sensitive skin tissues were laid out flat, it would only cover about two square feet and contain less than five million scent receptors, none of which exhibit infrared capability. Also, in the brain of the average dog, more than 12 percent of the cerebral tissue is devoted to processing olfactory information. In humans, less than one percent of the brain is devoted to the same. Tests have proven dogs can detect one drop of liquid in a fifty-five gallon barrel of water, and some tests suggest dogs can even smell cancer cells.

    you are in the wrong thread. im not talking about whether or not a dog can smell it. im talking about whether or not it gives off a scent. carbon monoxide for example, does not have an odor.

    Cannabinoids, and THC, are odorless to most humans.

    thc does have an odor perse we may not smell it but it does release chemical signitures that other things like dogs can pick up i hear the only thing that may not have an odor is neutrinos

    you may want to do some research on how things work to get the smell,smell is an chemical observation recognized and identified by the smeller so, not smelling it, does not mean it has no smell.

    damn that is a great article. so thc is basically produce BY the terpenes. but i also found this. http://terpenes.weebly.com/ i just have to check the validity of the info and we may have an answer after all. it seems to lead to the fact the even tho it is made by the terpenes, it is not one itself.

    the terpene and the phenol component go through a change in order to create the cbc or cbd. the cbd then goes through a further change to create thc.

    so my theory is that when the thc is created, all the terpens and phenols are left behind, thus leaving no scent.
