Myrcene - The Most Common Terpene in Cannabis!
HTML-код

- Lets talk about beta-Myrcene:
(7-methyl-3-methylene-1,6-octadiene)
Myrcene Is an acyclic monoterpene,
it has a Molecular weight of 136.2 Da
Myrcene is one of the smallest terpenes, adding to its volatility
Its Boiling point is 166*C or 331*F /332.6 °F at 760 mmHg (USCG, 1999) 167 °C
Molecular Formula C10H16
Myrcene is the most commonly found terpene in modern cannabis in the united states and Europe. It also occurs naturally in a large number of other plant species, especially in the essential oils of plants such as Hops, mangoes, lemongrass, bay leaves, parsley, and thyme
Its odor has been described as PLEASANT and “herbaceous, earthy, balsamic, or green” or having a fresh hoppy smell. And it characteristically gives cannabis strains a mildly sweet flavor.
Myrcene is associated with the phenomenology of “couch-lock” commonly attributed to modern cannabis chemovars. This is not surprising once we realize that myrcene is one of the sedative agents of hops (Humulus lupulus)
its been suggested it is simply the amount of myrcene in the sample that will dictate how youll be feeling
for example, if a sample has over 0.5% myrcene, regardless of the other terps present, its labeled as an indica
while chemotypes with lower than 0.5% myrcene, this is less so and the other terps have a fighting chance to contribute
FYI, hemp products or products high in CBD also tend to be high in myrcene, which is why people are mislead into CBD being sedative. For example, The CANNATONIC from the flowery is a high CBD, low THC flower chemovar

What are some of the therapeutic properties we possibly stand to gain from myrcene?
Anxiolytic or calming properties
Sedative properties/good for insomnia
Anti-inflammatory via prostaglandin E-2, while being gastroprotective
Shown to inhibit the inflammatory response induced by lipopolysaccharide, including cell migration and production of nitric oxide.
A significant inhibition of γ-interferon and interleukin (IL)-4 was also observed (106).
Analgesic or pain-relieving properties, which, was shown to be blocked by naloxone
Muscle relaxant properties
Anticonvulsant properties
Antioxidative properties
Antimicrobial properties (inherent to nature! Anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, sometimes anti-viral!)
MAY assist cannabinoids across the blood-brain barrier by increasing its permeability
(questionable, but more so a theory to help explain the entourage effect)
Interesting Facts:
Just like cannabis, It’s the most common terpene found in hops too
In brewing, β-myrcene is one of the most potent aromatic flavour components AND most odor-active volatile of hop essential oils
It constitutes as much as 70% of the essential oil by volume (14).
And clearly it can be the dominating terp in cannabis too.
There are a # of enzymes that produce myrcene as the sole end-product if GPP is the substrate or beginning product
Some of the genes responsible for producing myrcene are called terpene synthases
(specifically, the TPS-b clade of terpene synthases)
CsTPS3FN, CsTPS15CT, CsTPS5FN
And there are some enzymes that mostly produce myrcene but some others if a different substrate is used

Not a single patch of hairless skin on that mans body. Respect.
🤣💪
Nah bro he's got a rookie number amount of hair on the tops of his hands an knuckles
Youre helping me become a better budtender and thus, helping me help customers better. Thank you.
Please make more vids like this!!!! I NEED MORE on terps!!! THANK YOU for the ones you already made!!
Glad I found you ! New subscriber
Great video looking forward to see new content!
Thank you! 💪
Terpinolene is most certainly a favorite. It's the gassy terp. Paired with a few others the profile imo is just such an amazing smell.
Didn’t realize wolfman smoked ganja lol
Myrcene is the best, hands down. 25 plus years of experience
same and same.
Real deal knowledge
Fantastic
I really like linalool that's really relaxing to me.
I'd say Caryophyllene is even more common. My favorite thing about Myrcene is how it interacts with Ocimene.
i definatly see more caryophyllene, i tend to like it the most out of all terpenes so far, im getting one that has more pinene than anything 😳 cant wait to try it
@@albertmerlewHow was it
@@SilentNightBodomNighti have a cart with almost 8% pinene and it’s fire.
Limonene all day bro...the meth terpene
Caryophllene is not the most common. No body knows how ignorant you are until you tell them.
Some research, something more than knowing a word, spitting it out because of your need to occupy space, time & show your A**
I believe 2 + 2 is 5, feel me!

Especially in florida...Florida.... a nod to the black market, alive and well.
i would have to concur
I have run numerous GC analyses on numerous landraces. Caryophyllene and to a lesser extent humulene are the two most common and abundant sesquiterpenes in Cannabis. Neither one has a pleasant aroma, as do several of the monoterpenes.
Love ya Doctor, sent you an DM Hugh Mun 🎉
gotcha💪
@@thecannabisdoc vibes Doc
I always drink mango juice before smoking weed. The high is so euphoric
Thats a great way to enhance the effects for sure!! 🙌🙌
Can’t stop staring at his hairy ass neck, wtf.
What kind of mango juice? Fresh, canned or ?
I love terpines
So is their a difference in Myrcene and Beta Myrcene? Because I’ll see both of those on terp profiles. I feel like I like the Beta-Myrcene more vs when it just says Myrcene
Try telling us what the least allergen strains are? Noone does that.
Can someone help? On the back of my cart boxes it says B-Myrcene is a carcinogen. Is this bad? Can it cause cancer?
Subbed and shared.
Pinene!✌️🌲
Thats nature
I wish but alas pinenes cangive me days long migraine headaches
TERPINOLENE 🤯!!
Yo cannabis doc! Why has my reaction to cannabis changed dramatically as I 1:05 got older. Up until about 27 or 28 years old cannabis was amazing. Then I started getting anxiety attack and panic attacks. I cannot enjoy cannabis in the same way that I used to? Any thoughts on why?
thank you for sharing! I have some ideas, I will reach out directly
Too much thc not enough cbd
Hello doc. I have a few questions since I've seen bmyrcene banned on products as a cancer warning ⚠️. Can you help?
I don't know if i can help but i will certainly try! Which products have been banned?
@@thecannabisdoc so the product itself isn't banned, but the tyrpene called b-myrcene is, as in required to be prop 65d which means is shows up as cancer warning ⚠️ for example it was on the label of a product called "koi CBD" pretty famous company
Took a gummy with lots of Myrcene, my bed was like flypaper to me, like that for couple of hours 😊.
sounds like a very restful sleep!!
Seems to me limonene is much more prominent and is USUALLY the dominant Terp in cannabis. I’m a caryophyllene and terpinolene person
Its usually a tie between myrcene, limonene, and beta or trans caryophyllene. I am more of a limoenne teripinolene guy myself
prefer a Low Myrcene for minimal couch lock.
strongly agreed, i feel the same
I find the terpine, Limolene the best for my Alpha Wave effects.
the only thing i don’t get is why it’s listed as a carcinogen in california
Everything is listed as a carcinogen in California
Why is mycerene labelled a Carcinogen in California ?
This guy is Myrcened out recording this video
lmaoooo
🖊️🖊️🖊️
Any links to buy????
not yet but if/when i come across some products i trust with myrcene i will let you know! I would NOT ingest as an oil though!!! just to clarify!
How can I look up the same terp fact sheets shown in the video?
great question! I will send make it available in the description and ill send to ya directly!
Damn , did you go to weed college ?
But seriously I have noticed that all this new weed doesn't give me cotton mouth or munchies and it no longer smells like skunk
which state are you in?
@@thecannabisdoc California , and don't get me wrong I still enjoy it immensely , it gave me the ability to view things from many different perspectives instead of staying locked onto my own 1 perspective
So is this gunna feel exactly like weed?
myrcene is the fruity berry terp that is great for pain relief, anxiety relief, and insomnia
I always hated heineken bitter yuk.
You didn’t cover anything about it being cancerous
CARYOPHYLLENE FOR THE WIN 🤓
I like that one! super common too!
Dudes beard forgot to stop growing at the neck
it never stopped unfortunately haha
Ocimine
I was waiting for that one!
Im gonna report you to your local authorities
JOKE!
Rad
Brother, is that hair on your neck? 😅
lmao na man you got it twisted. there is some neck on my hair 🤣
That earthy crap makes me want to cough up a lung like most other terpenes. I look for only sweet weed.
I hate pinene, im allergic i think.
@3:20 CRAZY. Don’t use naloxone to block pain relieving affects from myrcene , wow I can’t believe this man, it’s like saying use naloxone when you take too much Tylenol 😂😂 wtf
thats not what I'm saying at all 🤷♂
Hops are bitter
