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 Power Africa

This is one of our favourite strains we have under the Seedsman brand. It has characteristics that will appeal to any enthusiast. The Durban Poison genetics ensure that this strain is quick to finish flowering, for a sativa strain. The Durban combined with the Skunk No. 1 genetics combine to give this strain some very impressive yields. All three of the strains involved in the creation of this strain are renowned for their potency and this offspring does not let the family down. Power Africa can be grown outside but best results with maximum yields will be achieved indoors or in a greenhouse. Genetics: Skunk/Haze x Durban Poison Harvest Date: End of September Flowering Period: 8-9 weeks
