Chemotype
Type II
Balanced THC:CBD
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 CBD Big Bud Super Skunk
Big Bud Super Skunk is a phenotipic variety that has been around for years and is renown for its variety of prizes in different cannabis cups.
Our high CBD content strain is one of our favourite plants for it’s speedy growth, it’s high yield and quality. It grows to be a full bodied plant with resinous buds and leaves.
Its strong and aromatic resin makes it perfect for making extracts, and it’s great for tasting.
This strain has a balanced ratio of THC:CBD of 1:1 Cultivation It grows quickly inside and its short buds give it the advantage over other varieties when there is a need for compact high tresin and less leaves. Great for hand harvesting.
Outside this is easy to grow, reaching a bushy 1.70m. We recommend the plant is well supported as it’s buds are very heavy.
We caution growing this strain in greenhouses and the large buds can be difficult to clean of moulds. We recommend planting 1 or 2 months later than if planted outside. Genetics: 90% Indica / 10% sativa
