Chemotype — the cannabinoid and terpene profile — is the signal that stays true to a cultivar’s genetics, which is why scientists classify cannabis by chemical profile (a “chemovar”) rather than by name (Hazekamp & Fischedick 2012). The dominant terpenes below are aggregated from community and lab reporting; aroma and effect associations are preliminary and not medical claims. Lab-verified COA profiles roll out as Areto’s data comes online.

Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide

Indica 70%Sativa 30%

Indica, sativa and hybrid are a retail shopping convention — not a reliable guide to genetics or effects. When researchers analysed 89,923 commercial samples across six states, these labels did not predict a plant’s terpene or cannabinoid profile, and a genome-wide study found sativa- and indica-labelled plants to be genetically indistinct (PLOS ONE 2022; Nature Plants 2021). The labels are so fluid that AK-47, a hybrid, won “Best Sativa” at the 1999 Cannabis Cup and “Best Indica” four years later. For an accurate, genetics-true picture, see the chemotype above.

About 5G

Min yield 50-60 grams 80% indica 20% sativa Flowering 8-10 weeks 4G is a cross between Gelato #45 x Gorilla Glue #4 x Girl Scout Cookies, originally bred by Purple Caper Seeds. It got his name because of the G’s in the parents and we decided to call this 5G because of the final parent: our cupwinning Lavender OG. The Cola’s have a tight bud structure that stack well giving growers the quality high yield they are looking for. We crossed the 4G with Lavender OG to give it a much better smell and taste. The result is a heavy to moderate yielder that finished in 8-9 weeks. Suited for indoor and outdoor growing. They get massive, grows extremely easy, with no issues and super resilent. Quite pretty and gorgeous flowers. It has the same distinct smell as Gorilla Glue, with hints of Lavender OG. Yet more mild in scent radius for locations where scent is an issue. It has an sweet and Sour afghani flavor. The 5G is very euphoric and offers a balanced and relaxed effect. Used to treat depression and lack of appetite. Very pleasant high
