Chemotype — the cannabinoid and terpene profile — is the 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). The dominant terpenes below are aggregated from community and lab reporting; aroma and effect associations are preliminary and not medical claims. Lab-verified COA profiles roll out as Areto’s data comes online.

Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide

Indica 30%Sativa 70%

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 Smile

This plant will make you smile from the sowing of the seeds to the high. You see the power of this ultra-fast Sativa hybrid from the germination and its production is surprising. The Indica male used in this mix brings to the plant less height, but very compact buds. Another reason to smile is its easy cultivation. The equilibrium obtained with this mix makes the plant able to give you wonderful growing results in only one week, indoors (if you start with clones, with seeds it needs 3 weeks). Normally the plant grows like a bush and it is very resistant against pests and mould. Smile is a practical and strong plant. During the blooming you will appreciate flowers and more flowers. It can double its size so it is better to put strong supports to take its weight during the last flowering weeks. The blooming is not as fast as the ripening. The flowering starts on the 52nd day untill the 65th when the Sativo phenotype comes. Outdoors it probably arrives in the first week of October. Warning: it is a very pleasant smelling plant, a mix of weed and acidic fruits, so use a good anti-smell system to avoid external problems. The buds start closing in the 4th or 5th week becoming big, fat an
