Do terpene enhancers work?

Saw this on Amazon. Does it actually work? Would you recommend another brand or stick with the regular nutes?

Terpenez - Essential Oil Intensifier & Terpene Booster 1 PINT https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DORQKZE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_BHEMDbJN2Z3R3

I ran terpenes last run while my friend ran same strain similar setup no terpenez. The terps on my grow was a bit louder, and trichs were more. This is a very limited opinion so take it for what it worth. I'm trying again on this run with Queen Anne's Revenge. It did not hurt or negatively impact the plant.

Snake oil. Save your money and stick with regular nutes.

Have you tried it, or have any results?

I don't need to try it. It's just another product targeted to cannabis growers and that's all I need to know. Grow a healthy plant from start to finish, don't overfeed, reap the rewards. That's all there is to it. Everything else is just nonsense and a transfer of money. But go ahead and spend your money on it. It's yours until you give it away for a false promise in a bottle.

E-cig weed.

Normal people won't smoke that shit. Its a perfume. Esters extracted from bitter orange peels are absorbed and displaced directly in the plant tissue. Their words not mine. E-growers say this can't happen but if you can feed fish too late and get river bud, wtf you thinks happening when you pour this shit over the roots? Dispensary grows love this shit, people are fucking retarded.

If you want a real terp booster, I'm working with Bioconsortia to develop an inoculant that will turn any plant into Skunk #1. Wait patiently and expect to pay heavily. Not with your money. I just call you an uneducated stoner dipshit on the label. Only transparent product on the market. Only product helping growers build their skill by understanding the plant.

We're also working on a FULL microbial fertilizer replacement to draw the major distinction between natural quality herb and bullshit bottle weed in big bold ink.

In the meantime Terp Gerp is a legit albeit generic option. Or just get your soil mineralized and bacterialized.

It makes your weed smell like pinesol and not in a good way

When you tried it, how do you know the difference you detected was from the product you were testing and not some other uncontrolled variable like expectation bias?

Good point, I do not. I just have 1 limited data point. I am running side by side another this run everything the same except one has terpenez and one doesn't. The run I did had some extremely heavy trichome build up. It could be just good genetics. It certainly did not hurt my bud as it is very good. I like the idea of trying new things, if the does not work Ive learned, if it does work, I have also learned.

I did not experience this with the stickytrap strain I ran. It was a very good blend of pine and lemon and gas. Now cured very nice lemon, spicy, very little gas. It was and is rediculously loud though.

Using Terpeneze?

Yes, using Terpeneze. I am not claiming the Terpeneze is the main contributing factor in the nice terps and trichome development as mentioned by other there could be other variables that are the major factors. Just providing feedback on my limited results, hopefully more people that are trying terpenez will chime in so we have more information.

My local hydro store refuses to carry it anymore
In a legal state that says a bit about the product

Because growers refused to allow it

It's on the Oregon "Stop Sales" list because it's not registered for sale here. They can't register it because they don't list what's in it. You can still order it online if you want to waste your money. But why would anyone want to put something on their plants if they don't know what's in it? If a company won't list their ingredients I would never use it. Their proprietary mumbo jumbo is just an excuse to put banned substances into their products. That might fly in some places but not here in Oregon.

The products listed below are under a current stop sale, use, or removal order. They are not legal for sale or distribution in Oregon.

If you’re really worried about increasing terps, start with other things first before adding unknown chemistry. A couple shots of sulfur in flower. MgSo4 and KSo4, stronger blue light the last two weeks, and reducing temperature at the finish should help.

Listen to Merlin.

He's 100% spot on.

Im in Ky, and for the last 2 years all kinds of Cali stuff has been coming in, and its loaded with sprayed on terpenes, or something. Sometimes its so strong, and sour, for me its unsmokable, and in reality I only smoked it 2 times because it was readily apparent it had been tampered with.

Its all at best C grade compared to what is locally grow. No comparison on which is best.

Also the shit they use to strip terpenes I bet has never been tested as to what it does to the lungs when you smoke it.

And I believe the Terpenes themselves are oil based, it could be that when vaporized, they can reform as oil, back on the lungs. And then you have people concentrating them ect???
Bad things were never really reported when people were just smoking the buds, hash ect.

All this shit is getting ahead of research, and the public are their test lab rats. Not me. Just give me buds, or hash. If your shits not strong enough, then you've got the wrong weed.

Thanks for the information. I did not know it was on the list of stop sales. I will definitely cease the use of it.
