Best earthy flavored weed strainsBest earthy flavored weed strains

Earthy weed strains offer that classic, old-school flavor profile, reminiscent of a walk through a forest right after it rains or simply the aroma of damp/wet soil. This earthy flavor in cannabis comes primarily from two terpenes called Myrcene and Humulene. These aromatic compounds are hands down the most commonly found in weed, along with Limonene. Generally speaking, Indicas and Indica-dominant hybrids contain more Myrcene than Sativas, making it harder to find Sativa hybrids with earthy flavors. Nevertheless, there are so many earthy strains that you’re sure to find one that suits you better Whether you’re looking for a specific THC-to-CBD ratio or a specific type of effect, check out the list below for the best earthy strains.
