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 K-13
Genetics The variety Easy Haze / K-13-Haze is a backcross which inherited the best qualities of both parents: strong, dense and compact structure from its ascendent Yumbolt, and its thin leaflets, incense aroma and clear sativa effect from its second parent, Kali Mist(Western Winds). Culture Suitable for indoor and outdoor cultivation. High yield. This is a plant easy to grow and provides a high yield. It has very rich and dense branching so it is recommended to grow it in SCROG. Its internodal spacing and overall size is relatively short compared to other sativas. It has a good tolerance excesses, deficiencies, temperature stress, pests and diseases and is particularly resistant to excessive moisture, a true all terrain strain. It is also well suited to outdoor growing. Grown in soil reach a gigantic size and its high yielding branches are covered in heads with formidable kolas covered in golden resin. Apical pruning is a good option to keep the height lowered without losing performance. To maintain a controlled size pots of 25 to 50 liters are recommended. Both outside and inside the larger volume the pot has, the larger the plant will become. Taste and effects Both taste and aro
