Chemotype genetics-true
Chemotype
Type I
THC-dominant
Chemotype — the cannabinoid and terpene profile — is the lab-verifiable 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). Cannabinoid type is set largely by a single gene (the THC:CBD ratio); about 96% of commercial flower is Type I, THC-dominant. Terpene profiles are sourced from Certificates of Analysis (COA) and roll out as Areto’s lab-verified 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 Limón de Azúcar
Limón de Azúcar is an indica-dominant hybrid (60% indica / 40% sativa) developed with a clear focus on the washer line, designed for high-yield hash extraction without sacrificing flower quality.
Pink Limez, selected by Medfarms (Barcelona), has established itself within the community thanks to its contemporary terpene complexity and strong performance both in flower and hash production. Its profile combines fresh lime, a touch of acidity, and creamy nuances that provide sophistication along with the highly recognizable “Z” umami character.
Pink Honey contributes a very pronounced sweet expression, featuring fresh honey notes alongside excellent static shift returns, adding an extra level of yield and performance in extraction.
In Limón de Azúcar, both profiles integrate seamlessly. On the nose, it delivers a fresh and well-defined lime aroma accompanied by a sugar/honey-like sweetness that softens the acidity. On the palate, it combines bright citrus notes with a sweet and slightly creamy background, resulting in a clean, complex, and refreshing profile.
Physiologically, it expresses strong vigor, balanced structure, and good branching. It completes flowering in approximately 9 we
