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 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 White Diesel

Burn some heavy oil with White Diesel! The name ?diesel? summons images of power, strength and reliability. The cannabis strain that shares this title gives ganja connoisseurs all those attributes plus a zesty lemon-grapefruit flavour in a delicious and potent hybrid that?s easy to grow and even easier to smoke! White Diesel is based on the unique hybrid that was first identified in NYC, where Diesel is still considered one of the top strains around. Our seed-strain captures the muscular bud development and unmistakable sharp, fruity taste of the original, while adding an even thicker covering of sticky trichomes. This improvement makes females appear more white than green at the height of flowering and gives White Diesel her name. FLOWERING: 50 - 65 days HEIGHT: 100-150cm YIELD: up to 125gr
