Caliweed

Caliweed — California Cannabis Culture at Weed Wonderland

It’s no surprise that california is the epicenter of global cannabis conversations. For decades, there has been underground cultivation happening in california. Then, the state launched one of the largest legal adult-use cannabis markets in the World. These two developments created a thriving cannabis culture that stands out from anywhere else. Caliweed isn’t just a geographical designation; it’s a benchmark. What is caliweed?

Caliweed refers to cannabis flower that originated through the development of a california-based cannabis ecosystem. In other words, california-based cannabis growers (legacy and licensed alike), have perfected growing methods over years, established genetics that are iconic to cannabis history, and set industry-quality standards that the rest of the World currently follows. When you see “cali” on a product label, you’re getting access to a rich lineage of Sun-grown Outdoor crops in the Emerald Triangle, innovative indoor grows in Los Angeles, and boutique/small-batch grows that treat cannabis like a winemaker would treat a single vineyard Pinot Noir.

Why does california cannabis stand alone?

The reasons behind the superiority of caliweed include:

1. Exceptional genetics — california has been cultivating and stabilizing cannabis for decades. There aren’t many places in the World that have seen such a wide variety of legendary strains as california. Names such as OG Kush, Gelato, Wedding Cake, Cookies, runtz — these names came from california and have defined global cannabis culture.
2. Environmental advantage — regions such as Humboldt, Mendocino and Trinity counties have a unique combination of Sun exposure hours, elevations and coastal air that produce spectacular flower outdoors.
3. Boutique/craft growing tradition — california has a strong tradition of small-batch, artisanal growing. Some of the top growers in california cultivate very small batches of flower by hand trim, and slowly cure for up to six weeks prior to sale.
4. High-quality legal market — california has one of the highest-regulated cannabis markets in the World. This means that growers must continually innovate and meet stringent standards in order to remain competitive and successful.
5. Breeding with terpene focus — breeders in california have historically emphasized terpene flavor/aroma along side potency. That is why the terpene profiles associated with cali weed are typically far more complex than those found elsewhere

Growing methods (indoor/Outdoor/greenhouse) of cali weed

We also grow cali weed using all three growing methods. Each type of growing method provides unique characteristics.

1. Indoor — grows using artificial lighting and controlled temperature and humidity. Provides the most visually appealing buds with the most consistent terpene expression. High priced for a reason.
2. Sun-grown Outdoor — sunlight in northern ca is among the greatest for cannabis cultivation in the World. Skilled growers can create incredibly complex flavors when grown outside. Large yields, full-bodied character, etc.
3. Greenhouse (light-dep) — uses natural sunlight combined with light-deprivation techniques to control flowering cycles. A happy medium between indoor quality and Outdoor scale.

Common terpene profiles found in cali weed

Many cali weed varieties have helped shape consumer interest in terpene-rich cannabis. Here are some common terpene profiles you’ll find in our caliweed selection:

• Limonene-dominant — bright/citrusy/uplifting. Can be commonly found in cookies and runtz varieties.
• Caryophyllene — spicy/fuel-like. Defines many OG Kush genetics.
• Myrcene-heavily — earthy/musky/deeply relaxing. Widespread across indica-trending cali varieties.
• Terpinolene/ocimene — floral/herbal/energetic. Can be found in gelato varieties and newer cali crossbreeds.
• Linalool — soft floral notes. Can be found in wedding cake genetics and similar genetics.

How to enjoy Caliweed at its best

Since cali flower is generally on the higher end of potency and aromatics, follow these steps to experience them properly:

• Clean your vape/dab rig or freshly cleaned piece — complex terpene profiles should be able to be enjoyed/tasted instead of being masked by previous residue.
• Grind your caliweed immediately before smoking/vaping — grinding caliweed immediately before use keeps volatile terpenes from degrading due to air exposure after grinding.
• Start with lower quantities if trying a new strain — even experienced users can be surprised by high-potency cali genetics.
• Store properly — store your caliweed in an airtight glass container (not plastic), maintain a relative humidity level of 55-62%, store away from light/heat sources. Caliweed’s terpene profile is its greatest asset — avoid losing it via poor storage conditions!
