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 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 Blackberry Moonshine

Blackberry moonshine is the parent of Dragons Brew. It was an accidental creation of magic when a Blackberry Jabbas (t@wo_dog_seeds) was pollinated by a miss sexed Prime Moonshine (@bigworm_6969) male. I've had the privilege to do a large scale pheno hunt and have selected some very special females. There are 3 phenos of the #blackberrymoonshine: Red buds, red hairs which usually occurs on a red stem. Blackberry muffin or blackberry pancake smell and taste, with extreme mold resistance. Potent indy smoke with top shelf bag appeal, taste, and a growers dream. Red buds, white hairs occurs on red and green stems (both phenos represented in pollination) with a loud tangerine fuel smell. This one is also very photogenic, and great bag appeal. This tangerine fuel terp is louder then the red hair pheno. This pheno yields slightly less the red pheno. Green bud white hair green stem. This pheno has the most functional high, best frost, but least bag appeal. Tangerine fuel terp profile. 2 weeks slower flower time
