Linalool in the Lead

Linalool leads the terpene list, and the aroma is floral lavender. The nose is floral first, then sweet spice and a thread of earthy hash. Effects follow the scent: a calm, relaxed body wave, arriving in about 5 minutes. Inhaled, the wave lasts about 2 to 4 hours, and an edible keeps going beyond that.

Three Terpenes, One Soft Profile

Linalool

Linalool carries the floral signature and the calm, evening-leaning character.

Caryophyllene

Caryophyllene takes the middle slot with peppery, warm descriptors and a sweet spice in the aroma nearby.

Myrcene

Myrcene is third, described as body-relaxing, heavy and classic indica-feel.

Skunk, Korean and Hawaiian Parents

Soma Seeds in Amsterdam developed Lavender in the early 2000s, and it won a Cannabis Cup in 2005 for its lavender nose. The parents are Super Skunk, Big Skunk Korean and Afghani Hawaiian. Plants flower in 8-9 weeks.

Indica-Leaning Alternatives

Afghani is another indica-leaning option, with earthy hash and sweet sandalwood at 14-20% THC. Blackberry Kush brings ripe blackberry and sweet diesel at 16-20% THC. Bubba Kush trades flowers for sweet coffee and dark chocolate. Granddaddy Purple has a lavender hint on the exhale after its grape candy opening.
