Cannabis flower, sometimes referred to as buds, are part of the cannabis plant. They contain the highest concentrations of cannabinoids and terpenes, the compounds responsible for the plant’s potential effects, aroma, and flavour.
These active compounds are produced in the trichomes, tiny, crystal-like structures found on the flower’s surface.
In a medical context, cannabis flower is typically prescribed in dried form, known as flos, the latin word for flower.
