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 Purple Punch OG
This new strain is hybrid produced from an elite Purple Punch （Larry OG x Grand Daddy Purple） clone with an elite clone of Star Killer （Skywalker OG Kush x Rare Dankness #2） – two champion genotypes of renowned prestige in the international cannabis scene. It is a mainly indica strain with a compact structure featuring a large main bud and strong side branches. The buds are thick and laden with masses of highly aromatic resin. They are characterized by very high terpene concentrations making them ideal for resin extractions. Given the strain’s Grand Daddy Purple ancestry, some plants are notable for purple or reddish hues in their leaves and flowers. They have a deliciously sweet, complex aroma and flavour, with very spicy tones of OG Kush and shades of lemon. The plants produce an intense, relaxing effect. Data Sheet
