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 70%Sativa 30%

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 Peppermint Kush

We are excited to finally introduce from Barney’s Farm Stella Blue a dynamic and exotic new hybrid. Crossing our Stella Blue with our spicy Nepali Indica results in a truly beautiful must have experience. The aroma and punch of taste is delicious. The authentic pepper of Stella tempered with the minty after taste of Nepali Kush is irresistible. The plant grows medium height with a beautiful array of colours. Lovely dense colas develop on each branch, and produces a great yield of wonderfully seductive aromatic cannabis. Yield: 500gr/m2 Height: 60-65cm Flower time: 60-65 days Harvest time: Early October THC: 22% CBD: Very High Genetics: Stella Blue X Nepali Kush
