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 El Gaucho Fast Flowering
The Gaucho Faster Flowering, a hybrid between Sierra Madre and Blue Mountain
It is a cross between Sierra Madre and Blue Mountain, two enormous quality varieties that together produce extremely early and productive plants. The Gaucho Faster Flowering develops quite compact, robust and well-branched, with a medium-high size if cultivated in open ground or in a large pot. It is a stable and homogeneous plant, with a high resistance to fungus and cannabis pests. This makes it an ideal choice for both novice and more experienced growers. The Gaucho Faster Flowering, ready in six weeks. Sweet buds with a relaxing effect
It is ready for harvest in just about 6 weeks of flowering, offering a buds yield of up to 600g per m2 when cultivated in an indoor grow tent, and up to 800g per plant outdoors leaving it to grow at its maximum. It produces resinous and aromatic flowers, mixing very intense sweet and fruity nuances that permeate the mouth for a long-while. These aromas are intensified if we use organic fertilisers. It offers a relaxing and very pleasant effect, perfect for enjoying watching a movie, resting or meditating calmly while taking a good walk. BSF Seeds El Gaucho Faster Floweri
