Cannabis flower, also known as cannabis bud or nug, is produced by the female cannabis plant. It's considered one of the most widely used forms on the cannabis market due to its versatility. If you are looking for the right cannabis for you, Quality Roots dispensaries offer a wide range of premium flower and other high-quality products to choose from!

Potency and Flavor Profiles
Cannabis flower is generously coated with trichomes, glands that contain cannabinoids, terpenes, and other active components. One of the most important chemical components produced by trichomes is Tetrahydrocannabinol, more famously known as THC (which is responsible for producing psychoactive effects), and Cannabidiol, also known as CBD. Both THC and CBD percentages are responsible for potency, some cannabis varieties are more potent than others, depending on the genetics and cultivation.
Flavor is one of the most important elements of cannabis, and terpenes are the ones that determine the flavor profile. Specific terpene combinations can create unique flavor and aroma profiles, from sweet and citrusy to musky and earthy. The most common terpenes and their flavors include:
- Myrcene (earthy or musky aroma)
- Limonene (citrusy aroma)
- Pinene (pine-like aroma)
- Linalool (floral lavender aroma)
