Soil Ph Interaction
Soil pH interaction refers to how cannabis plants' terpene expression responds to growing medium acidity or alkalinity. Cannabis genetics typically express optimal terpene profiles within pH ranges of 6.0–7.0 for soil cultivation, though cultivar-specific responses vary. Lower pH environments (acidic) may favor certain volatile compound profiles, while elevated pH can suppress terpene production or shift aromatic expression. This relationship is primarily observed during vegetative and early flowering stages when secondary metabolites accumulate. Understanding soil pH management has become relevant to breeders and cultivators studying how environmental variables influence genetic terpene potential without altering the plant's genetic code.

Breeders increasingly document terpene stability across pH ranges when selecting parent lines for commercial cultivation. This trait helps identify cultivars suited to specific regional soil conditions or production systems.
