Chemotype
Type I
THC-dominant
Terpene profile most dominant first
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, 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 Tangerine Kush
This variety belonging to one of our Kush family hybrids, is characterised for producing individuals were we find nearly orange and lemon scents interspersed with the strength of the scent of the mother Kush, which is noted in the final flavour. This is a hybrid with a medium-high yield, with an internodal distance that is accentuated during the flowering phase, we could say that its buds are grouped into lumps that appear around each plant node. Due to its columnar structure it is highly recommended for Sog type crops. The resin produced is of high quality, being really sticky, recommended for Bho type extractions, and its effect is powerful, with a rich flavour halfway between kush and sweet orange, being very enjoyable for smoking and suitable for moments where you do not have to do many things or activities that do not require much effort or concentration. Average yield m²: 400-450 g Flowering period: 9-10 weeks Percentage Indica/Sativa: 70%-30% Outdoor harvest: September
