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 O.G. Skunk

The OG #18 x Skunk produces a good yield. She is not the heaviest feeders so don’t overdo the nutrients. The taste is that of fuely, sour, with a little bit of fruit. The high is strong and clear headed. She is tall with nice nugs and fairly easy to trim as there is good calyx to leaf ratio. This strain helps with pain relief and is uplifting. Those of you wanting the classic OG flavour with a above average yield this is the one for you. Genetics: The OG #18 x Skunk 60% Sativa / 40% Indica Flowering Time: 8-9 weeks Yield: 400-600g/m2
