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 70%Sativa 30%

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 Watermelon Punch

Watermelon punch is one of the fruitiest strains that we found in the last couple of years. Watermelon and berries are the main sweet flavours of the this strain. It is a very powerfull indica with a good kick to it. The growing is easy, short plant with heavy side branches and a good main cola. She will thrive well in every condition and any climate from hot to cold. Very mold resistant and a low demand of nutrients. From week 6 of bloom the buds will be covered with shiny crystals and the smell will get sweeter by the day. Smoking this lady will give a hard knockout due to the high indica percentage. Flowering time indoor 9 weeks Harvest month outdoor October Yield indoor 550-650 grams /m2 Mold resistance High
