Getting To Know Geraniol — A Primer On The Hemp Terpene Geraniol

CBD is the most dominant cannabinoid in hemp flowers, but it’s far from the only compound in this plant. Besides secondary cannabinoids like CBG and CBN, hemp has dozens of flavorful terpenes. These aromatic compounds give each hemp strain its unique scent. Currently, scientists estimate there could be hundreds of terpenes in hemp flowers, many of which we still haven’t discovered.Geraniol is one of the many terpenes found in hemp strains. Although geraniol isn’t as common as myrcene, beta-caryophyllene, or limonene, it can influence the “background” of many hemp strains. As people get more experienced smoking hemp flowers or using full-spectrum CBD oils, they may appreciate geraniol’s nuanced flavors.What Is The Geraniol Terpene?As mentioned in the intro, geraniol is a secondary terpene in many hemp strains. Like other hemp terpenes, you can find geraniol in various flowers, fruits, and herbs. Indeed, gardeners may already know that geraniol is the primary terpene in the “geranium”...July 4 festivities in Los Gatos include symphony performance, fireworks

Supporters of the two newest additions to Little Italy San Jose got a sneak peek at a June 22 preview event for Poor House Bistro and the Little Italy Museum and Cultural Center.The 5,000-square-foot piazza that connects the two venues was full of people who paid $30 a pop to dine on food from Poor House Bistro as well as Paesano’s and Bibo’s Pizza, two other Little Italy eateries. Poor House, which was moved to Little Italy in January 2022, wasn’t open to the public yet, but employees served Hurricanes, Negronis and other beverages from an outdoor bar.The Italian Cellar, an indoor bar underneath the museum, was open for the event, even though there’s still some work to be done before it opens as a private club for members of Little Italy San Jose.

Supersized housing projects are planned for Bay Area’s wealthiest cities. Is one coming to your neighborhood?

Eight-story condo buildings rising above the billionaire bedroom community of Los Altos Hills? Hundreds of apartments flanking the sprawling single-family subdivisions of Brentwood? A hundred and fifty homes perched high on a bucolic hillside in rural Marin County?These aren’t part of some fictional “Supersize the Suburbs” version of Monopoly.They’re among a growing number of jumbo housing projects developers are scoping out in the Bay Area’s most exclusive neighborhoods. And to the horror of some longtime residents, local officials could be helpless to halt construction.It’s all thanks to an until-recently forgotten provision in state housing law meant as a penalty for cities that fail to do their part to alleviate a deepening housing crisis. Developers have begun invoking the rule — dubbed the “builder’s remedy” — in hopes of pushing through projects that are much bigger than local zoning restrictions typically allow.So far thi...There must be a better way to teach drivers all of Tesla’s bells and whistles: Roadshow

Q: I really enjoy driving my Tesla 3, with its many enhanced safety features and AI-like tools. It’s fun for me as a software developer, but many of my less computer savvy (and potential luddite) friends have difficulty mastering their new cars. My car’s manual is only available online. At well over 200 pages, who really reads this??? The net result is that a lot of the stuff is not understood and does not get used.And having rented several cars recently, I find there is no consistency in safety features between brands. Manufacturers need to provide a brief written “getting started guide” to help drivers use the vehicles. This would make for safer and saner driving.Steve Brock, San JoseA: You make excellent points.Q: I am new to motorcycle riding on the freeway.
