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 50%Sativa 50%

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 Marilyn Monroe

These plants produce extremely beautiful flowers, that stick out of the crowd. Hot pink, reds, magenta, and various purples, with a gassy rotten sweet pink grapefruit stench that comes out as a gassy skunk, or something decaying. These could easily change the boring commercial market overloaded with Gelato knockoffs. She is most definitely original and will make her mark in the industry and home growers gardens. She flowers fast and hard usually 56 days, and loves notes, so feed them. 23 - 25 THC is common. Forbidden Fruit (Clone) female was bred to Giraffe Pussy F2 (Big Red Pheno) male pollen donor.. Expect lots of colorful expressions such as green phones are extremely rare, dark pinks, and purples with red expressions are common. These plants don't rely on cooler temps to express these vibrant variations either. 75% exhibit colored flowers. Plants typically take 56 - 63 days to flower and should definitely be trained and supported for maximum yields. Releasing on Halloween 2024 by The Bakery Genetics Lineage: Forbidden Fruit (Clone)(f) X Giraffe Pussy F2 (Big Red Pheno)(m) Created and cultivated with LOVE. @thebakerygenetics
