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 Black Cherry Punch

Black Cherry Punch from Inhouse Genetics is an Indica dominant hybrid reproduced by Single Fin Seeds that we just couldn’t pass up. We think you won’t pass it up either! A strong indica leaning plant with big chunky and frosty colas and a quick flowering period is hard to say no to. These are the traits people are looking for. She will turn a beautiful shade of purple in cooler temps and she likes a lot of nutrients during flower. She smells like cheerwine, and the high is long lasting and couch locky. Black Cherry Punch is excellent meds for stress, insomnia or nausea. Also good for PTSD. Flowering period is 55-60 days
