Temperature Vapor Pressure
Temperature Vapor Pressure (TVP) describes how volatile aromatic compounds in cannabis release into air based on heat conditions. This physical property determines which terpenes and minor aromatics become detectable at different temperatures—relevant during storage, transport, extraction, and consumption. TVP affects preservation strategies: sealed, cool storage minimizes loss of volatile light terpenes, while warm conditions accelerate aroma degradation. Breeders and geneticists track TVP profiles to predict stability of strain-defining aromatic signatures across environments. Understanding TVP is essential for seed banks, cultivators, and breeding programs managing long-term germplasm and phenotype consistency.

Breeders select for stable terpene profiles by considering TVP stability—favoring lineages that retain aroma identity across temperature ranges. Low-TVP aromatics are more stable in long-term seed storage and controlled breeding archives.
