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 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 Sour Punch

This is a special cross that worked out like a magic match in cannabis lovers paradise. It was originally created and then selected of numerous bunch. A select 90s OG Kush male beast with the stank almost putrid.The pollen was used to pollenate a wonderful structured Purple Punch female.Purple Punch is widely used and highly loved because of its genetics Make up and beautiful plant it is. this couldn’t be anymore perfect for the male cultivar match. Colors,structure,Big Harvest,and taste is delicious. That’s why purple punch is so wanted. Reason I used it to pair up with the old OG Kush,hot gas stank! A small batch of selfed S1’s was recently made to get some fem seeds out to my FlavorChefGenetics Army/supporters/followers. Thank you all and stay blessed. Enjoy!!! ✌🏼
