  • CBC 0.22-0.24%
  • CBG 0.06-0.17%
  • CBN 0.1-0.32%

Dominant Aromas and Terpenes

The Strawberry Headband strain features an aroma that every user would expect. You will notice the smell of fresh sweet strawberries with slight pungent hints. When the bud is broken, it’ll strike you with a more complex odor that reminds you of herbs, berries, and apricots. Also, you can expect a deep smell of diesel with earthy undertones. This rich aroma profile is caused by the carene, caryophyllene, and myrcene terpenes.
