The Science

Understanding the High Spectrum

A modern approach to cannabis classification based on chemistry, not folklore.

🧬

Beyond Sativa vs Indica

Traditional labels like "Sativa" and "Indica" describe plant structure, not effects. Modern cannabis science shows that terpene profiles are far better predictors of your experience than these outdated categories.

🔬 Terpene Science

Compounds like limonene, myrcene, and linalool directly interact with your endocannabinoid system to create predictable effects.

🎯 Effect Mapping

Each High Spectrum family groups strains by their dominant terpenes, helping you find consistent experiences across different strains.
