OP you have a hunch, and you have anecdotal evidence for it. You do not have a theory.
There is nothing in botany that supports your claim. It would be best for you if you get to work, build some real data and keep your ideas to yourself until you have it. I believe you really want to help people, but I think you want your ego stroked even more. I wish you luck but I think you need to be educated further on the subject before you attempt to educate others. Peace.

If you are talking about my sig, i was mocking somebody that claimed 3lbs dry under a single ended 1kw lol. Its pretty hard to hit over 2lbs imo but 3lbs is ubbeard of for my eyes.

So many little things will swing that number greatly. Mainly genetics and environment.

I have seen 3 under 2 - 1000 watt bulbs but they had to be newer bulbs and then just made weight.

Like I said I am not here to argue you can not find references to this anywhere. But you can find correlation between terps and where they are found naturally in other plants and the medical benefits of these terps. Also there are plenty of graphs out on the webz that will help show you the smell and flavor of terps in nature. Pinene= pine, myrcene= lemongrass and ylang ylang linalool =orange. A lot of terps have more than one equal in nature usually leaning to different aspects say sweet versus sour. citrus versus floral so on and so forth. You can pm me if you would like me to work up a strain for you but i am done stating my point I don't care to argue. Just trying to share what I have found to work and try to get some feedback on the medical aspect. If you had cancer wouldn't you want your medicine to contain cancer fighting terps in your oil along with the CBD and THC so you can cause your medicine to be a triple threat to your cancer? Also adding them after the fact is not the same as getting the plant to process them itself.
Horse shit kid. High Times did a piece on the link between different effects due to specific terps a few months back.

So we all can bet on where you got the "idea".

I brought this up on several forums over a year ago. The article in high times says nothing about using essential oils during grow. The article did strengthen my thoughts of the correlation of the terps thc and cbd working together. So youngster you might need to look just a lil further. The only mention of essential oils in an article, they use them to add to their concemtrates. This method I have only found collaborating evidence in one sentence in an aromatherapy book. That was talking about tomatoes. So you show me one place that this is mentioned I really would like to discuss with that person the possibilities. In the High Times article they only told you about terpenes and how they might affect the smoke saying that in the future people would use these terps to enhance their bud. I'm saying I have been doing this the last three years with tremendous success. I moved to Colorado and was told by the trichome institute it was impossible, The addition of oils would kill your plants. Jorge Cervantes even told me it was interesting and needed looked into. I read everything I can on terpenes it is a very interesting subject. I have done it and it works if you get the right combination, if you don't your pot tastes like shit. The trick is never adding what isn't there and you always get the best smoke. On the other hand, If you make an oil and cold process it and purge at under 85 degrees you will keep your terps in the oil. When I started this research Rick Simpson said you needed to get rid of the volatile terps. Now he has changed to cold processing and keeping the terps. If your growing to produce oil to help with your ailment then you can add what terps will help your ailment even if they aren't present in your strain. Then you could assure your medicine works for you without looking for that ever elusive just the right pheno. So maybe doc you can try to read my post not just skim I'm not trying to a know it all but they have already started the research and will be doing this soon. Wouldn't you rather be able to produce a medicine that you know has all the right stuff? That you grew yourself and know for a fact what your producing has the capabilities to help you to the fullest? I have sent this to quite a few magazines. I bet there will be an article very soon on this subject not the terpene subject but the essential oils subject. Just watch and see.

your such a moron



and so is rick simpson btw
Bro I don't know why your criticizing me? I just mentioned a subject I am practicing and getting great results with and you mock me. Rick Simpson is known for using cannabis oil to treat cancer. I just want the info out there so no one gets rich off something you can do yourself. Try it or don't, like I said repeatedly, It all comes down to the recipe Ive been working on the combinations for the last three years and have improved several crops grown by individuals that know everything about growing just like you. I don't need to prove anything I already have.

Go read the article. Never once does it mention adding essential oils to your grow. It does how ever strengthen my argument with facts correlating the THC CBD and Terpenes working together. So now I'm not stupid? Some of you really crack me up.

You smoke those oils every time you light up. They are present in cannabis. Even you will someday use this method to enhance your indoor garden just wait and see.
