I have been thinking, if i have an allergy to pine tree fruit can i have an allergy to the Pinene terpene?
I already smoked a lot of marijuana strains and no problems yet! The shi* is i dont even know what is like a piney smell bud, i cant tell it...
I just want to make this one clear , i want to smoke all strains with no problems and paranoias :thumbsup:
Bump,so many views and no answer.
i think you have no answers because, well, the question isnt exactly clear, youd need to get tested to see if you have an allergy.
Tested to Alpha-Pinene and such? i doubt it because i already have smoked so many strains but sometimes i think about this.Quote:

Both beta, and alpha pinene are irritants to the mucosa, and beta-pinene is toxic according to their MSDSs.
Alpha -pinene is what makes your eyes burn if you rub them while trimming.
However, they have nothing to do with pine nuts, so a pine nut allergy is irrelevant.
In short, relax, it's not a problem.

Pinene is called pinene because it smells like pine.
Pine nuts, and the oil squeezed from pine nuts, does not contain any pinene, as far as I know.
Pine nut allergy is a nut allergy.
People who have it, will do well to avoid all nuts, because there are often cross-allergies that develop.
If you have a pine nut allergy, chances are that you have pine pollen allergy and or hayfever also. (Grass pollen allergy).
Now bear with me, because this is a "stoner stretch"
If you have pollen allergies, never smoke male cannabis. :)
Well, I never claimed to be a serious person, did I? :D
Sometimes I just feel like a nut.
Now stop wasting your time with us jokers, and get to googling.
This is important enough that you need to have some first hand knowledge my friend.
