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.

Flowering: 65-70 dayschr(8232)
Indoor Harvest: 500 - 600 g/m2
chr(8232)Outdoor Harvest: 1000 – 1800 g/plant A unique African sativa and the glorified Dutch hybrid have given Power Russian its incredible power, effect and yield. Huge, crystal-strewn buds need support. The variety is recommended for cultivation using the SCROG method. Sativa with high yields is a perfect find for any grower. The plant behaves particularly well outdoors, very quickly turning into a giant tree. Power Russian is extremely resistant to high humidity, fungal diseases, pests and a strong temperature drop. This is an outdoor variety that will quickly become the number one in your list of favorites!
