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 50%Sativa 50%

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 Sunrise

Rare sativa leaning pheno of Jungle Boys Purple Sunset. Unlike her heavy body focused indica leaning sisters, this pheno looks and smells like Purple Sunset, but the effects are almost exactly opposite. The TK parent really shows up after a bit, and though you will be chatting and mind racing still, you may be sitting down doing it after 30 minutes. If you know Jungle Boys Purple Sunset, you would look at this, smell it and taste it and think this was Purple Sunset. For about 90 seconds. Then you would realize this is something completely different, definitely NOT Purple Sunset. Thus she got her own name. She was discovered in a Jungle Boys seed pack in November 2020, shortly after JB released flower then seed packs. She is an extra vigorous grower, with only a little OG fussiness, mostly well behaved. She loves ridiculously high VPD in stretch and all through flower, having clocked leaf temps 14.6 degrees below ambient when pushed to crazy numbers, like 80 degrees F and 15% humidity. She is also a very high yielder, consistently coming in a 4 ounces per square foot. She grows exceptionally dense buds that impress. If you can find this clone only girl, you will want her!
