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 Dream Sherbet
Dream Sherbert is a cross between Girl Scout Cookies and Pink Panties, resulting in a 70/30 Indica Sativa dominant plant. Indoors it requires about 63 days of flowering after the photoperiod change, with a yield of up to 500g per m2. Outdoors, the harvest is ready between late September and early October, with plants up to 200cm provided with good space, and yields of up to 750g per plant. Dream Sherbert shows good resistance to pests that can appear during cannabis cultivation. It is also resistant to humidity problems, it just produces a little less, so it is better to maintain a constant temperature during cultivation. It is advisable to keep a constant temperature of 20ºC during the last 2-3 weeks of flowering to prevent any problems. It produces very attractive buds, with an almost fluorescent bright green colour and a shiny white resin layer. Dream Sherbert, great relaxation and refreshing flavours
Dream Sherbert produces refreshing flavours, where sweet melon is appreciated on a slightly earthy yet fresh background, similar to the pine aroma. Kush lovers will definitely be delighted with this strain. Dream Sherbert has THC levels of up to 18%, a true Indica power that produc
