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.

History of the Alien Cookies Cannabis Strain Alien Cookies is a cannabis strain created by Jaws Genetics (also known as Jaws Gear), a cannabis breeder with over 20 years of experience growing and breeding weed.

Nonetheless, his strains have attracted a strong, almost cult-like following among breeders and growers. Genetic Lineage of Alien Cookies Animal Cookies is a hybrid strain bred from GSC and Alien Dawg. GSC, formerly Girl Scout Cookies, is one of the most famous cannabis strains of the last decade. Bred by The Cookies Fam (the predecessor to the almighty Cookies cannabis brand), GSC introduced cannabis users to a whole new array of flavors and aromas. It produces light green flowers with an iconic aroma dominated by a sweet earthiness reminisce
