Vegetal Notes
Vegetal notes represent aromatic compounds commonly associated with fresh plant matter, grass-like qualities, and herbaceous scents in cannabis. These aromas often arise from volatile terpenes such as myrcene, limonene, and pinene, which can produce green, hay-like, or leafy characteristics. Vegetal profiles are frequently documented in landrace strains and are often found alongside earthy or woody undertones. In breeding contexts, vegetal aromas can indicate incomplete curing or drying processes, though some cultivars naturally express these compounds as part of their terpene profile. Breeders working with specific chemotypes sometimes target or minimize vegetal notes depending on desired final product characteristics.

Cannabis breeders monitor vegetal aroma expression as a quality marker during strain development and phenotype selection. Proper post-harvest handling typically reduces prominent vegetal notes, making their presence useful for evaluating cultivation and processing protocols.
