Yall are fuckin wierd lol. I absolutely love cannabis, both recreationally and medically. But if there's an additional choice to isolate the pain relief aspect without the psychoactive effects of THC, that would be amazing as well. It's not an either/or choice - there are absolutely use cases for both. Regardless, I'm pretty skeptical that terpenes are any more useful for pain control than essential oils are.
This industry relies on innuendo and bots to fill comments on Reddit, anything but actual clinical trials with placebo controls. Same thing with terpene sleep aids.
If I'm not wrong, essential oils are rich in terpenes and maybe that's what makes them useful as a pain treatment.
Essential oils are not useful as pain treatment.
Thing is, this is strain that's gonna be legalized if any. So any fun use would still be illegal.
The states in the US that have already legalized weed are not going to let go of that tax revenue anytime soon.
