Chemotype genetics-true
Chemotype
Type I
THC-dominant
Chemotype — the cannabinoid and terpene profile — is the lab-verifiable 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). Cannabinoid type is set largely by a single gene (the THC:CBD ratio); about 96% of commercial flower is Type I, THC-dominant. Terpene profiles are sourced from Certificates of Analysis (COA) and roll out as Areto’s lab-verified 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 Cali Cherry Pie
Cali Cherry Pie is a rare craft cannabis creation by the breeders at BSB Genetics. This unique dessert cannabis strain brings together Durban Poison and Granddaddy Purps to unlock sweet fruity baked good flavour. Truly a stash for connoisseurs to savour. Enjoy a sugar-coated slice of 23%THC bud after 9-10 weeks of flowering. Just when you thought dessert cannabis couldn’t possibly get any better. Along came Cali Cherry Pie to raise the bar even higher for every connoisseur wise to her. This sweet leaf is an indica-dominant hybrid crossing of dispensary favourites Granddaddy Purps and Durban Poison. Make no mistake this is dank decadence. Pheno hunters will be spoiled for choice and might want to hold onto more than one mother plant. Tight frosted buds with orange hairs are to be expected although a bonus purple hue could be in store too. For such heavy indica genetics you might be surprised by her long-lasting sativa buzz. Cali Cherry Pie doesn’t induce the typical couchlocking lethargy; be prepared for a soaring high that floods the synapses with creative energy. But you won’t find her too racy either as that lingering calming indica influence is in the background to calm you down
