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 White Thunder
Kera Seeds developed the beautiful White Thunder and it has everything you need to get started. It was created by crossing an Afghani and a Skunk. The White Thunder has acquired its name thanks to the large amount of big crystals it contains. The White Thunder is a fantastic plant; a high yield, it’s easy to grow, has a short blooming period, a great taste and a powerful effect. The White Thunder is also fairly cheap, so there’s room for you to make a beginner’s mistake. But we’re convinced that you won’t be let down by the first harvest from your White Thunder, because it can’t go wrong and the quality is always great. It is very difficult for first time growers to pick their first strain. Growing your first plant is also an adventure on its own. That’s the reason Kera Seeds developed the White Thunder. It has everything you need to get started. White Thunder was created by crossing an Afghani with a Skunk. White Thunder is a plant that’s incredibly easy to grow. You can grow it both indoors and outdoors. When you grow White Thunder outside it’ll be ready for harvest by the end of September. The short growing period of the plant, 8 weeks, makes the White Thunder suitable to grow i
