THCV in Mixed Light Cannabis

⚗️ Science First mentioned: Ep. 177

The observation that mixed-light (greenhouse with supplemental lighting) cannabis can produce a wider spread of minor cannabinoids including upwards of 5% THCV, compared to purely indoor or outdoor cultivation. This broader cannabinoid expression in mixed-light environments may be due to the plant receiving a more complex light spectrum and natural environmental signals alongside supplemental lighting.

Mentioned in the context of how different growing environments affect cannabinoid expression. The discussion suggests mixed-light cultivation may be undervalued for producing diverse cannabinoid profiles, including THCV which is increasingly sought after for its unique effects.
