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 Queen of Diamonds
Lineage: Bubbawhip A17 x MMXX #48
Type: feminized, Indica dominant
Filial Generation: F1 IX
PVI （Phenotypic Variation Index）: Below avg
Indoor Flower Time: 60-65 days early to mid October
Height/Stretch: Below avg-avg
Yield （per sf）: Above avg
Color: mostly green with potential for purple when grown outdoors
Solventless extraction potential: high, super sandy trichomes, long stalks, dense coverage.
Nose: Sour, skunky, jet fuel, lavender, and vanilla
Effects: Ultra mind numbing, narcotic, sleep inducing Notes: This is a cross between our two most formidable solventless extraction varieties and two of our consistently highest testing cultivars （THC） Overall she stays tame and is easy to handle. Great for low headroom scenarios as you aren’t going to get intense stretching during the flower cycle Tips from the grower: Overall this is a fun and easy strain to grow. The plants hold themselves up well but they can require support for the tops as they ripen
