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 Power VIP
Power Vip is a feminized strain that was created from new South African genetics who were crossing up to get a variety of marijuana with a great potential for growing indoors and outdoors. Genetics indica / sativa growth having an indica, with little branching and a large central bud. This variety tripled in size in bloom so you can be induced to flower within days of vegetation. It has a fairly fast flowering, you'll avoid the rainy season the best results. In flowering can see very compact buds that produce a large amount of resin. Power Vip produces a psychoactive effect sativa sweet and deep Indica. Genetics: 40% Indica / Sativa 60%
Original: African Sativa Indica x
Indoor: 450 gr / m2
Outdoor: 400-600 gr per plant
THC: 20%
Indoor Harvest: 65-70 days
