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 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 Sugarpop

Genetics Sugar Pop is from another between Reggae Seeds and ouselves. Our breeders crossed White Russian x Kalijah with male reversed Jack The Ripper this time. The obtained result gave the most Indica type variety of the Golo Line collection. Culture Ideal for indoor and outdoor cultivation. High yield. Especially recommended for extractions because of its high resin content. Sugar Pop has a very good structure. Medium internodal spacing, beautiful and easy to grow. With the change of photoperiod, Sugar Pop develops large central buds with few branches and strikingly large amounts of resin. The yield will be high with heavy resinous buds. Overall it is a very resistant to high temperatures as well as pests and diseases. Pay particular attention to feeding as it is a sensitive to over-fertilization. Taste and effects As far as taste, Sugar Pop offers a predominantly sweet taste from the White Russian, blending the aromas of all its parents well, from the earthy Kalijah the haze of spicy haze of Jack the Ripper. It is not too odorous during cultivation making it an excellent choice for crops that require some discretion. After a few days of curing, the aroma becomes a marked and per
