Genetics & Lineage
Parentage not published by the breeder. No single parent pair is established for this catalog entry. Areto does not estimate parents it has no report of.
Academic research: Two Alpine Rocket cultivars (ARa and ARb) were genetically distinct from each other (FST = 0.36) despite sharing the same name. (2017; citation)

- Label consistency: Samples under the Alpine Rocket name were genetically distinct, supporting the paper's view that names do not necessarily reflect a meaningful genetic identity.genetically distinct

Areto Research estimateNot published by the breeder. Areto Research estimated this from the strain’s name, reported parentage and commonly described traits; it is not a source, a lab result or a prediction for any product. Details marked “general guess” have low confidence. Each estimate is replaced as soon as a breeder publishes that detail.
Source access date not recorded. Fields without supporting records remain unknown. Potency and terpene composition vary by product batch; use that batch’s COA for tested values. View sources.
Indica, sativa and hybrid are retail shopping labels, not genetics. Parentage is breeder-reported and not DNA-verified. Use your product’s batch COA for tested potency. How Areto sources this page.

Cultivar facts come directly from the cited breeders. A breeder’s description is a reported claim, not independent genetic verification or a test of your product batch. Community members’ personal experiences are separate from these facts. Corrections: genetics@areto.tech.
