Terpenes
Terpenes are another type of compound that is found within the cannabis plant. These compounds are present throughout nature, and every plant has a unique combination of terpenes that gives rise to different flavors and fragrances, which is why different strains of cannabis vary in smell and taste.
Beta-Caryophyllene
Limonene
Myrcene
Flavonoids
Flavonoids are one of the lesser-known compounds in cannabis, and little is known about the flavonoids present in each strain because they are rarely tested. Like terpenes, flavonoids add to each strain’s flavor and fragrance profile.
Studies have shown that the major flavonoids present in all cannabis plants are cannflavins A, B, and C.
Effects
Berry Punchs has been reported to have the following effects:
- Appetite-Inducing
- Energizing
- Euphoria
- Laughter
- Sociable
- Talkative
The following adverse effects have also been reported:
- Dry Eyes
- Dry Mouth
The main effects of Berry Punch have been reported as energetic and hunger prompting. It is safe to say users do not tend to choose this strain to sit at home on the couch. The initial rush of euphoria energizes the body and mind and allows individuals to focus on many tasks. This strain elevates users and will make them want to get up and dance with friends. It may, however, prompt you to take a few too many trips to the fridge, overindulging in sweet treats, so have some healthy snacks on standby.
Medical Applications
Cannabis contains many anxiolytic (anti-anxiety) compounds that can beat stress and reduce the production of the stress hormone cortisol.
Cannabis contains anti-inflammatory and analgesic compounds that can help reduce or distract from pain, including THC, CBD, and beta-caryophyllene.
THC and CBD interact with the endocannabinoid system to relieve some of the pain and other symptoms associated with chronic fatigue syndrome.
A combination of THC and CBD can help reduce the frequency and intensity of muscle spasms and any related neuropathic pain.
The most studied medical effects of cannabis involve the endocannabinoid system (ECS). It is responsible for receiving the various molecular substances contained in cannabis (e.g., phytocannabinoids like CBD and THC) and triggering natural healing responses within our bodies.
Dosing
The Berry Punch strain has a moderate THC level, so it isn’t likely to overwhelm the average user. However, as always, novices should proceed with caution. Even the most experienced user can be overcome by cannabis, so it’s recommended that you take it slow. Going slow with lower doses will also help reduce the likelihood of adverse side effects like a green out — a state when cannabis users smoke too much and begin to feel paranoid, and can involve nausea and vomiting.
Growing
Berry Punch is a difficult strain to grow and is not recommended for novice growers.
Height
If raised under the right conditions, it can grow to around 30-60 inches indoors and out. The Berry Punch plants are also relatively dense.
Humidity and Temperature
Like the berries it is named, Berry Punch thrives best in warm spring and summer climates. As with many other strains, a Mediterranean-like climate is best. Since this plant is difficult to grow and may fall victim to disease from mold, it is best to keep it in this climate.
Flowering
While the Berry Punch strain is more difficult to grow, it does have a shorter flowering period of around 55-65 days, with an average of 58 days. The plant should yield approximately 10-15 ounces per plant if grown outdoors and 1-2 ounces per square foot indoors. The flowers are green in color with rich streams of amber hairs running through them and coated with white-orange trichomes.
