Abstract
Cannabis plant products, and processes for their preparation using hydrodistillation and steam distillation, are described, where such products are measurably or detectably free from terpenes, and thereby odorless, but where they substantially contain the same cannabinoid profile and content, and have the same visual and tactile quality as the original cannabis plant material from which they are obtained.

A process for producing an odorless plant product, comprising:
- obtaining a predetermined amount of plant material to be rendered odorless;
- placing the plant material within a distillation vessel;
- introducing sufficient water into the distillation vessel to submerge the plant material;
- heating the water in the distillation vessel to a predetermined temperature;
- maintaining contact between the plant material and the heated water for a time sufficient to volatize the terpenes in the plant material;
- and
- removing the plant material from the distillation vessel;
- whereby the plant material has been rendered into an odorless plant product.
