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 Perzimmon
Lineage Rainbow Cheddar （Zkittlez x UK Cheese） x Gastro Pop #5
Indoor / Outdoor
Flowering Time 8-9 Weeks
THC % 23-27%
Yield High
Structure Potentially foxtailed structure, medium stretch and average plant structure
Aroma Sweet Z frontend with a slightly funky cheese note on the backend amongst a light citrus Perzimmon by Compound Genetics is the flavour-packed cross that perfectly blends new-school and old-school. The mother Rainbow Cheddar is a selection from Green Dot Labs selected to blend the champion Zkittlez terp profile with the legendary UK Cheese, then pollinated by Gastro Pop. The resulting progeny blends that delectable Zkittlez profile to create something new with a super sweet candy flavour and a loud, complex skunk and savoury backend. There are some light citrus notes to be found amongst the sweet and funky cheese notes and Persimmon typically has a medium stretch factor and an average plant structure. Compound Genetics found intense candy terp profiles from this hybrid from initial testing; however, the underlying funk from the Skunk side of the Cheese lineage translates to the flavour experienced on your palate, which turns the overall flavour to level 11.
