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 Lemon Cheesecake
Heavyweight have crossed Lemon Skunk with a dangerously powerful Cheese, resulting in another sensational strain. The unmistakable citrus tang and Cheese musk blend seamlessly, making Lemon Cheesecake a truly pleasurable smoke. The high is cerebral and creative, uplifting rather than mind numbing.
Despite the sativa element, Lemon Cheesecake has a short flowering time and will reward you with a bountiful crop in only 9-10 weeks. As growth is so vigorous, the vegetation period can be kept to a minimum, but stand well back once the flowering cycle has begun! Lemon Cheesecake is unstoppable, delivering huge pistil coated colas along every internode. Extra support is strongly advised, as the sheer weight of the giant buds can overload the branches towards the end of flowering.
Mega yields makes Lemon Cheesecake a safe bet for the commercial grower, and it’s also recommended for its medicinal properties. It’s particularly beneficial for stress related illnesses, loss of appetite and for alleviating the very unpleasant side effects of chemotherapy
