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 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 Captain Future

Our breeders at Anesia Seeds are always on the lookout for new dimensions in cannabis genetics and are committed to helping shape the future of cannabis breeding. After our Future # 1 was tested several times for over 37% THC and became a hit among dispensaries, it was clear to us that the journey could not end here. After numerous attempts, we found the ideal partner to maintain or increase the potency and to drive the taste experience to the extreme. It became the Emperors Cookies, a cross between Emperor OG and the infamous Girl Scout Cookies, which has well balance of effects and a very complex taste profile. It took us a lot of work and an enormous amount of effort to get an original Emperors Cookies Cut, but the result of the crossing speaks for itself. Captain Future has already been tested with 36% THC and we are sure that it has not yet reached its highest level. In addition to the cannabinoid level, the terpene content, i.e. the aroma, is decisive for the effects. She has an intense pineapple taste, versatile citrus aromas, and also a light mango note. The proportion of myrcene, nerodiol and lime is extremely high in Captain Future and thus increases the effects. Known fo
