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 Gorilla Face

Gorilla Face is an Indica dominant marijuana developed to offer an improved version of Gorilla Glue, reinforcing its best properties and intensifying the terpenes profile. A Gorilla selection has been crossed with powerful Gorilla Glue hybrids (and possibly with Face Off OG, although Advance Seeds does not specify it), thus creating a very vigorous, strong and well-branched plant. Our growing space is easily filled thanks to the plant's structure. It is easy to cultivate, assimilates nutrients well and adapts perfectly to pruning and moulding. It can be grown in SCROG maximising the final performance. Gorilla Face, a super resinous and very potent regular Gorilla Face can reach up to 3m when cultivated in open ground, filling the branches with colas of aromatic and very resinous buds. It offers a yield of up to 700g per plant when grown outdoors, and a yield of up to 600g per m2 in an indoor grow tent. Delivers a sweet flavour loaded with nuances, mixing earthy notes with exotic spices and dark chocolate on a background of good cured hashish, pine and aromatic herbs. It produces a very strong long-lasting effect, starting with a powerful psychedelic euphoria that spreads through th
