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 Crimea Blue

Crimea Blue was created by crossing the hugely popular, fruitful Blueberry strain with the earthy spiciness of a hardy Crimean Hash plant. With this exclusive crossing, Barneys Farm has created a new flavour sensation. With delicious flavours of lemon peel and rosemary, Crimea Blue gives you a long lasting, psychoactive high. This fast flowering plant grows short and thick, producing above average yields of large, heavy colas. Ideal for both SOG and ScrOG growing systems, the rewards far outweigh the required gardening efforts. Genetics: Ukraine/Blueberry Harvest Date: End of September Flowering Period: 8-9 weeks THC Content: 18% CBD Content: 0.6%
