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 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 Chronic Thunder

By crossing the long established and superior genetics of both the legendary Alaskan Thunder with the stable and high yielding Dr. Chronic, Chronic Thunder was born. This wonderful blend of genetics creates a high yielding, short flowering Indica dominant hybrid that grows up to 100cm tall indoors. The flowering time is only 8.5 weeks which will have heavy side branches that need support in their final flowering stage. Chronic Thunder produces a relaxing, satisfied high with a unique dried cinnamon fragrance and delicious flavour. Yield: 600gr/m2 Height: 100cm Flower time: 57-62 days Harvest time: End September/Early October THC: 20 % CBD: 0.6% Genetics: Chronic X Alaskan Thunder
