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 Khalifa Kush

Khalifa Kush is an Indica dominant hybrid based on the famous OG Kush. It is a robust and vigorous plant. It is easy to cultivate for any grower, who will be rewarded by the high-quality harvest. Khalifa Kush is a well ramified plant. It forms large, dense, compact, and resin-covered flowers, ready to harvest after about 8-10 weeks of flowering in indoor cannabis cultivation, where it can deliver a yield of up to 500g per m2. Khalifa Kush cannabis strain, yields with a THC up to 30% Khalifa Kush terpene profile is dominated by Limonene, Myrcene and Caryophyllene, resulting in a floral aroma that combines pine and lemon notes on an earthy background, accompanied by a petrol hint. Khalifa Kush, with a THC up to 30%, produces an intense effect, initially euphoric and stimulating, which quickly evolves into a relaxed and contemplative state.
