Reported Effects of Thai
Users most commonly report feeling energetic, creative and uplifted after consuming Thai. These subjective effects are drawn from user-reported data and individual experiences vary considerably. The effects profile is influenced by the strain's dominant terpenes — Terpinolene (aroma and mood), Myrcene (comfort and ease), and Pinene (freshness and energy) — as well as individual tolerance, consumption method and dosage.
Terpene Profile
The dominant terpenes recorded for Thai are Terpinolene (a complex floral-pine-citrus scent associated with uplifting experiences), Myrcene (an earthy, musky profile commonly associated with relaxation and the classic sedative sensation) and Pinene (a sharp pine aroma linked to alertness and mental clarity). Terpene profiles can vary between phenotypes, growing conditions and curing methods.
