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 Tangerine Skunk

Tangerine Skunk, also known as “Tangie Skunk,” is a rare evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created through crossing the infamous Tangie X Lemon Skunk strains. This celebrity child brings on the full-bodied effects with a high level of potency thanks to its 19-21% average THC level. The Tangerine Skunk high has as pretty buzzy feeling, starting in the head before spreading throughout the rest of the body. You'll feel lifted with an influx in creativity and artistic motivation that has you tackling any task at hand. A deep physical relaxation comes next, washing over you and dropping you into a state of pure calming bliss and ease. In combination with its high THC level, these effects give Tangerine Skunk an edge in treating those suffering from conditions such as depression, chronic stress or anxiety, migraines or headaches, nausea or appetite loss and chronic pain. This bud has a timeless sour tangerine flavor with a savory skunky exhale that sweetens the more that you toke. The aroma is spicy and pungent with a skunky earthy overtone that turns slightly sour and citrusy as the nugs are burned away
