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 Strawberry

Sour Strawberry is composed of 60/40 Sativa Indica genetics. It is the encounter between Strawberry Kush and Sour Diesel, thus resulting in a plant as rich in terpenes as it is in cannabinoids. Sour Strawberry, thanks to its vegetative vigour, is easy to grow and provides good results to any type of grower, beginner or experienced. It presents a flowering period of about 60-70 days in indoor cannabis cultivation. Outdoors the harvest is ready early October, with a yield of up to 2000g per plant. It is a ramified plant and responds very well to different optimisation techniques such as pruning and trellis, favouring a generous harvest. It can reach up to 600g per m2 indoors. Sour Strawberry strain, harvest with a fruity strawberry flavour Sour Strawberry produces dense flowers completely covered in resin rich in terpenes and cannabinoids. Its terpenes profile is dominated by strawberry fruity notes on an organic and earthy background reminiscent of moss, with cream and Diesel hints. Its effect is Sativa in nature, high and stimulating, favouring good mood and creativity.
