Raw Trim To Add Terpenes?

First time grower getting close to harvest and thinking ahead to my edibles processing. Terpene profiles are important to me for specific strain effects so my concern is knowing many terps start to completely break down chemically at even moderate temperatures how much of them really survive decarb? Doubts about the sealed container approach because if they are chemically destroyed there is nothing left to be "reabsorbed" into the flower. Perhaps some here have actual lab results of end product to quantify terpene loss after certain processing methods. One option I'm considering is adding non-decarbed raw trim into my infusion to restore the original terpenes. Of course infusion itself requires heat so I'm not certain how effective that would be unless the oil offers protection. Curious on thoughts and experience as I'm not yet finding much info on this from a home grower perspective.

 

Ah, low and slow for the win. Thanks for the suggestion, I hadn't run across anyone decarbing with lower temps but this makes sense and I'll try at least one batch this way.

 

So little to no active cannabinoids and still noticeable therapeutic effects?
I know cannabis in general is essentially a super food with tons of health benefits so I already use fan leaves in various recipes, capsules would be another option for a natural daily supplement.

 

So perhaps terps survive the heat better than expected. I might still try infusing a batch with raw sugar leaves in addition to decarbed flower to see if there is any noticeable difference. Without easy access to a lab in my area it's all going to be based on my subjective experience in the end, of course that is really all that matters anyway.
