• Cannabinoids: The paper states that Kompolti inflorescences are particularly rich in CBDA, which can decarboxylate to CBD.
  CBDACBD

  “Inflorescences of industrial hemp varieties, Kompolti included, are particularly rich in cannabidiolic acid (CBDA) that is disposed to the spontaneous decarboxylation to cannabidiol (CBD)”

• Cannabinoids: Increased solar UV radiation resulted in higher CBDA, terpene, and cannaflavin content in the hemp variety 'Kompolti'.

• Cannabinoids: In Kompolti inflorescences, thirteen cannabinoids were identified and eight quantified, with cannabidiol and its acidic precursor being the most abundant.

  “Inflorescences of the Kompolti cultivar were used as the plant material. On a polar C18 column, more than thirty compounds were well separated within 25 min; thirteen cannabinoids were identified and eight of them were quantified, with cannabidiol and its acidic precursor being the most abundant.”

Areto Research estimateNot published by the breeder. Areto Research estimated this from the strain’s name, reported parentage and commonly described traits; it is not a source, a lab result or a prediction for any product. Details marked “general guess” have low confidence. Each estimate is replaced as soon as a breeder publishes that detail.

Indica, sativa and hybrid are retail shopping labels, not genetics. Parentage is breeder-reported and not DNA-verified. Use your product’s batch COA for tested potency. How Areto sources this page.
