Terpene Therapy

This week I'm exploring a new compound that I haven't discussed on the podcast yet! Muscimol is an interesting compound with a unique pharmacological profile, it feels like a stimulating version of ambien with a slight variation on the visual auditory aspects. This compound is derived from the Amanita Muscaria mushroom and is worth exploring if you're into all of the potential exper...

In this episode I'm back in the Trichocereus tent to show the progress on the TBM + the seedlings! There was a bit of sunburn and dehydration that occured when I got the flu a couple of weeks ago, and we're still in the process of healing that this week. I also go on the first hike of 2026 and discuss some of the philosophical ideas that have been floating around in my consciousness. Par...

This week we're back in the tent to sew some new seeds and introduce some more new life into the tent! It's a rather sad week otherwise and I don't have much else to say unfortunately. I greatly appreciate the continued support of the Terp Team through these trying times! Support the show

This week we revived the tent with some new lifeforms! Specifically a Trichocereus Bridgesii Monstrose that has three segments currently! These cacti have been utilized for thousands of years by human beings to connect and commune with the universe and are an essential tool in any explorers toolkit! I go over some of the alkaloids and triterpinoids found in this species as well as some other trich...

This week we're enjoying the last bit of reasonable weather for this year before getting the tent restarted! This time instead of growing cannabis plants we're going to be exploring the world of ornamental cacti! In particular several cultivars of Trichocereus cacti! I also talk a bit about my observations on the current state of the world and discuss my progress with getting back to bas...

This week we're at JAM glass gallery in beautiful Sylva, NC to learn how to create a honeycomb pendant from scratch! Glass art is something that has been important to me since I was 15 years old and there was always glass art in my house growing up too! Learning how to actually create something out of the raw material has given me a new appreciation for those artists out there who create incr...

This week we're back at Skyland Cannabis Co. to bring you a very important conversation about the changing landscape of the hemp industry in the U.S. We are in unfortunate times; Senator Turtle Neck introduced new legislation that effectively kills the entire hemp industry. This change in legislation will affect 100k+ individuals and families across the U.S. by essentially stripping their car...

This week we're hiking to the tree of wisdom to discuss the benefits of the Terpenoid compounds found in Lions Mane mushrooms / Shoutout to Golden Door! / and how they can help repair the cellular death caused by PTSD. Terpenes/Terpenoids are found in so many living things and they seem to fit into our bodies like keys that either unlock or activate certain systems for the management of our h...

This week we're still kicking on the no cannabis train, and I am grateful that it has been an easy transition! I attribute this to not being addicted to it; rather just dependent on the benefits for my quality of life! Addiction and dependency are two different things that can sometimes occur at the same time. However, for me, addiction is an imbalance within the soul, mind, and body rather t...

!!! IMPORTANT DESCRIPTION PLEASE READ IF YOU CARE ABOUT ME AS A HUMAN BEING !!! This week is a different week than I've had in 15 years and that's because I, with my newly acquired therapist, have decided that it's time for me to fully reset my existence back to a true baseline. I have been dealing with various mental health issues for my entire life and cannabis is an excellent too...

This week we're in Southern Oregon to capture a conversation with Nick from Summer Heads! This one turned out to be a bunch of fun and we cover everything from his preference for sungrown solventless products to bigfoot potentially being a UFO! If you know me personally, you know I love the weird and unexplained aspects of our reality and it was cool to find someone equally as into it as I am...

This week we're in the woods near the Who's Who garden to discuss the benefits of cannabis for PTSD and how it's impacted my life! I'm grateful to be able to work with this plant and cultivate a positive relationship with it! There aren't many things that are as helpful without causing negative side effects that can further reduce the quality of life. For me clean cannabis...

This year I had the privilege of capturing a morning meditation in the rows on my own! This is an honor to be allowed into that space without the owners of the garden being there as well and I am very grateful for that! It's been very busy over here and so the uploading schedule will be slightly off over the next couple of weeks! In this one I discuss the changes to the garden beds for this y...

This week we're back in the original satellite studio to shortly discuss the new tax that is implemented in MI; a 24% bulk sales tax which will impact producers and consumers. It's supposed to generate capital to fix the roads, however things might not always be what they seem when you look below the surface! That is, of course, speculation! I'm also gearing up for an exciting three...

This week we're back in the beautiful Smoky Mountains to discuss cannabis history, his adventure into the world of hash making, some hash hole rolling techniques, and more! The pocket of cannabis culture that exists in WNC is truly a beautiful thing and thanks to the farm bill, people can come out of hiding and share their work with the world. As it should have always been! I'm very much...

This week we're hanging out at Karma's studio to capture a multi-faceted conversation! We discuss the transformation of ideas into physical form, the origins of the name Karma Glass, where thoughts go after you think them, and so much more! The energy was flowing during this one; an unexpected yet greatly appreciated conversation!  Make sure you grab your tickets for Karma Show 3.0 Ticke...

It's been nearly a year since we sat down last time to meet one of TN's most dedicated single source producers! He's been very busy building out his new garden and entering into the competitive realm of resin! We recently got a chance to meet back up at Resin Rivals, where he took 2nd place! It's always cool to see the progression made by previous podcast guests!  Terps N Thing...

This week we're back in beautiful Asheville, NC to capture a conversation with Cymatic Gardens! He's a single source hemp rosin producer with a fresh drop over at Skyland Cannabis Co. We discuss melt quality, the genetics that he's drawn to working with, how cymatic patterns create our physical reality, and so much more! I thoroughly enjoyed this metaphysical discussion! It's i...

This week we're out at the tree of knowledge to capture it's essence within the camera! It's a shorter this episode this time; I've been dealing with a lot of wild things in my personal world and figured I'd try and spook myself with some Lemon Haze from the Summer's End Smokeout competition to get a bit of the good old adrenaline instead of anxiety! It's always...

This week is a rather sad episode, unfortunately a friend of mine has passed away. Tom Culton was an inspiration to many, a very unique soul, and it's strange how the universe works out sometimes. We had been talking about doing a 2nd conversation for TT recently and while that one won't be captured, the world at least has the first one. It is forever within the ether. These conversation...

This week we take a hike with a RekTip roll in a very beautiful wildflower sanctuary! I found the RekTip while preparing the recovery room for my wife and I figured I might as well feature it on an episode! I got that tip while I was experiencing an ego clash at Ego Clash '24! A lot of energy stored in that glass to say the least! I also discuss the changing landscapes of both our digital env...

This week we're going on an adventure with a blend of the Terp Style Rainbow Zlushies flower with the Amnesia Lemon Hashplant #3 ! This blend works well! Both flavors are far enough apart on the flavor spectrum that they leave room for each other in the mix! I've always felt that blending flavor profiles is a lot like blending different instruments to make a song. I also discuss the vari...

This week we're at the garden table with Nick Risden from Lyme Rising Farm for the second time on the course of this podcast! We discuss changes in the garden this year, approaching marketability as a craft farm, a bit more of Nick's history and passion for cannabis, and the importance of managing your mental health/the garden's impact on your mental heath! I got to try some of last...

This week we're hiking around with my new Big Mellons Glass x Zone Glass puffjawn top. It features a white + pink base color with two millie chip eyes, full mouth, and a millie chip stack marble! I've been enjoying the terps dry recently; better flavor translation and the rig stays cleaner! Also no accidentally spilt water! There are some issues with the audio for the first 7ish minutes...
