Chemotype
Type I
THC-dominant
Terpene profile most dominant first
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, 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 Apple Jack
The original AppleJack has been a popular strain in some of the hottest coffeeshops in Amsterdam back in 2001, unfortunately one of the original parents used to breed this strain with has died and it looked like that that was the end of that strain. Until we started the Seedism collective, this is when we met "Hazemaster" who is the main breeder of RDG genetics and has perfected the art of selfing during his many years as a breeder for various established seed companies. We now had the technique to use the remaining Applejack clones that were stored within our genetic library and produce the first ever 100% female AppleJack seeds. AppleJack is a quick flowering Sativa dominant plant that can finish her flowering cycle within 10 weeks and gives good yields. They adapt very well to different environments and can be grown even in smaller grow rooms. The high is a perfect blend of a subtle relaxation of the muscles followed by a strong trippy head buzz. AppleJack grows large fragrant buds and needs branch support to prevent your plants from breaking under their own weight. Flowering period: 8 to 10 weeks
Yields: very high
THC: 18.5%
