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 Super Charger
Super Charger is a moderate-heavy yielding Indica dominant strain that has a gassy and cheesy scent. She forms a 4-6 nodal top cola with a tightly disconnected cola structure beneath giving it the appearance of braiding. Her buds are half dollar in size and dense but not as dense as other strains there is some looseness. She has a high leaf-to-calyx ratio and small restacked calyxes giving her buds a bulbous shape. Her buds have a thick layer of frosty trichomes all over her buds with a few light green hues and a mix of light and dark purple shades throughout. Super Charger will double in size in flower and is more of a laterally growing plant than a vertical one. She is an easily pruned and defoliated strain with a moderately dense canopy. This strain will require a fair amount of extra support in late flower as her buds swell and her branches get less sturdy. This strain can be easily overwatered so we therefore recommend growing with care. Overall this is a more difficult strain to grow than others and it will do well in any style of grow.
