The Importance of Organic Terpenes
Cannabis grown organically produces a wide variety of natural terpenes, influenced by the plant’s genetics and the surrounding environment. Unlike indoor, salt-grown cannabis, which often lacks the full expression of terpenes, organically grown outdoor cannabis thrives, allowing the plant to develop its full terpene profile. Many indoor cannabis growers rely on bloom boosters and terpene enhancers to artificially elevate flavors, but these additives can only do so much to replicate the complex, naturally occurring terpenes found in outdoor-grown cannabis.
Why Soil Matters
The soil in which cannabis is grown plays a crucial role in its terpene and cannabinoid production. At Dr. Jekyll Farms, we take pride in the health and diversity of our soil microbiome. Our farm is located on the fertile land of the Arkansas Riverbed, which has been nurtured by over 100 years of organic farming. The richness of this land, combined with the pure water sources, contributes to the exceptional flavor and potency of our cannabis. Healthy soil supports the natural processes that allow our plants to express their full genetic potential.
Our History and Commitment
Dr. Jekyll Farms is deeply rooted in the history of Pueblo, Colorado. The farm’s legacy stretches back to the early 1900s, when it was used to grow white celery for holiday seasons. Today, we continue this tradition by cultivating cannabis on the same fertile soil, upholding the values of sustainability, hard work, and dedication. The history of Pueblo’s boom-and-bust economy, along with generations of farmers who have worked this land, can be tasted in the diverse terpene profiles of our cannabis. As stewards of this iconic land, we are committed to maintaining its natural fertility and producing cannabis that reflects the unique flavors of our region.
