Myrcene Earthy Compounds
The Myrcene Earthy Compounds family encompasses cannabis genetics selected for elevated myrcene terpene content paired with earth-forward aromatic profiles. Myrcene, a sesquiterpene commonly found across cannabis and hops, is often tagged as the dominant terpene in many modern cultivars. Lineage records frequently report myrcene-rich parents bred for herbal, forest-floor, and soil-like character notes. This terpene class has been a consistent selection target in breeding programs focused on classic landrace aromatics. Understanding myrcene dominance is valuable for breeders working to preserve heritage flavor profiles or develop predictable terpene-forward varieties.

Breeders selecting within this family typically cross myrcene-dominant parents to stabilize earthy, herbal expression across generations. High myrcene offspring are often used as foundation stock in crosses aimed at building complex terpene combinations while maintaining earthiness as a base note.
