Chemotype
Type I
THC-dominant
Terpene profile most dominant first
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, 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 ICED Grapefruit
Whilst experimenting in 2004, Ferry produced this most interesting cross. It was launched to great acclaim in 2005. The perfect marriage between our Grapefruit and ICE. The Iced Grapefruit is the perfect mental painkiller. Where pharmaceutical antidepressants numb feelings, our Grapefruit cannabis makes people feel happy and enlightened, just like a classic Sativa. The ICE, being one of the strongest cannabis strains in the world, is more of a physical heavy bodied painkiller. The Iced Grapefruit holds some very promising prospects with a wide range of medical effects of the parents. Choose your own perfect keeper based on the particular medical traits you are looking for. The Iced Grapefruit has two phenotypes: the first more Indica inclined with a shorter stature yet with a Sativa bud structure and large calyxes. This pheno is loaded with resin. The second phenotype is slightly taller and more Sativa looking. Overall, the Iced Grapefruit produces dense buds with a high calyx to leaf ratio. Iced Grapefruit can display some pink to purple hues at the end of flowering giving it an excellent bag appeal. Expect a height around 1.20m. The smell will be very special with the fruitiness
