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 30%Sativa 70%

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 Ice

Lemon Ice – The perfect day time smoke. Lemon Ice cannabis seeds by Amsterdam Genetics have an extremely short flowering time and offer one of the most creative uplifting highs you can find. Due to the way in which this wonderful strain has been cross bred. It has retained the truly unmistakable sweet, citrus taste of the Lemon Haze. Whilst the lesser known Ice gives this strain a surprising and delightfully friendly uplifting effect. Lemon Ice can be enjoyed both during the day and in the evening. Whenever this strain is provided with enough space and light one can expect to be rewarded with an exceptionally high yield. The Lemon Ice cannabis seed has a 7 to 8 week flowering time. Depending on conditions, growers can expect their plants to reach 1.20-1.50 meters producing a 400-500 g/m² indoors. When grown outside expect heights to reach between 2-3 meters with a 400-500g per plant yield. Parents: Lemon Haze x Ice Type: 60% Sativa / 40% Indica Taste: Sweet / Citrus / Skunk Effect: Uplifting Creative High Flowering time: 8 Weeks
