Tilray THC 18 Indica No. 4 offers users a high dose of THC. Each batch targets a THC level of 19.9% and a CBD level below 1%.
Terpenes are aromatic compounds in the cannabis plant that can work with cannabinoids and flavonoids to create an entourage effect. There are several types of terpenes included in this Sirius strain, such as Limonene, Caryophyllene and Humulene. Humulene is a scientifically researched terpene and is purported to have therapeutic benefits, including antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Caryophyllene targets similar healthful effects plus pain relief. Limonene is one of the most researched terpenes found in nature that boasts antioxidant, stress-relieving and appetite-reducing properties.
