Oxidative Processes

Oxidative processes in cannabis refer to chemical reactions involving oxygen that occur during plant growth, harvest, drying, and storage. These reactions affect cannabinoid stability, terpene degradation, and overall compound profiles. Common oxidation includes THC converting to CBN (cannabinol) over time, and terpene volatilization or transformation. Breeders and cultivators track oxidative conditions because they directly influence final product chemistry and shelf stability. Understanding oxidative pathways is essential for preservation strategies and predicting how a strain's chemical profile will evolve.

Breeder relevance

Breeders select for genetic traits affecting oxidation resistance, such as terpene composition and cell wall structure. Cultivators managing oxidative processes during drying and storage can significantly alter the final expression of a strain's cannabinoid and terpene ratios.
