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 OG
Lemon OG is the result of crossing Super Lemon Skunk with the original OG Kush from Kees and Karel’s gene bank. Lemon OG is a very productive and high yielding plant, especially when grown with the SOG method. The Lemon OG genetics are easy to grow. The indica dominant genetics tend to keep the plants short, meaning there is no need to top the plants. The delicious fruity/citrus Kush smell is rare and genuinely special. If you grow Lemon OG you will find it a real pleasure to spend time in the grow room with your plants and enjoy the sweet lemon aroma. There aren’t too many leaves in the blooms, which makes trimming the generously sized buds easy. You will need to wear gloves during harvest, as well as an unmistakeable lemon fragrance you may find your hands also have a strong skunky Kush smell which is hard to remove! The medicinal properties of Lemon OG are also impressive. With over 20% THC and a host of other cannabinoids this is a very calming and relaxing smoke. Ideal anti-stress medicine! It’s perfect if you need powerful pain relief and also produces a strong appetite. If you use a little too much Lemon OG, especially in the evening, you may find it difficult to resist fall
