Forest Floor Notes
Forest floor notes refer to earthy, woody, and decompositive aromatic compounds commonly associated with cannabis strains carrying terpenes like myrcene, caryophyllene, and pinene. These scents evoke damp soil, aged wood, and organic matter in various states of breakdown. The aroma profile often emerges in older landrace varieties and modern strains bred from Afghani, Hash Plant, and Northern Lights genetics. Breeders working in this category frequently select for microbial-interaction phenotypes and soil-rich terpene expression. Forest floor notes are typically considered a marker of traditional cannabis breeding lines rather than modern commercial strains.

Forest floor notes are typically considered a marker of traditional cannabis breeding lines rather than modern commercial strains.
Breeders targeting forest floor aromatics often focus on myrcene-dominant phenotypes and emphasize microbial terpene development through extended curing periods. Selection for these notes is common in hash plant development and in preservation breeding programs aiming to maintain heritage landrace characteristics.
