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.

About Blue Alien
This is another start to a bigger project. The mother is the rare and famous DJ Short Pre-99 Blueberry (Sativa pheno). This gal is the most blueberry plant I have encountered in my 35 years of travel with cannabis. I have tried many good fruity and berry flavored cannabis, but this girl is special. She likes to stay somewhat small like an indica, but her personality is distinctly sativa from her thin leaves to her internode spacing, she brings that sativa flavor and effect to a world of fruity, dominant indicas. The father, is from the famous Alien Kush F2 batch of seeds that Raskal released a few years ago. His sisters, had a strong and pleasant cherry, skunk turpene that is pretty unique in the world of high end cannabis. Making this cross, Im expecting the smell and flavors to rival old school sweet and fruity indica dom plants. The resin profile will be better than average taking into accounts of both sides. But the main target and purpose of this cross was to release the epic fruity nature of both sides. Genetics: DJ Short Pre-99 BlueBerry x Alien Kush F2
