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 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 Family Jewels

The trichomes are like a creamy coating of cannabinoids, and the terpene profile is equally rewarding and powerful. The underlying purple hues are beautiful whether grown indoors or out. Growth is somewhat wide and viney, but the stems are strong and once flowering begins the growth goes straight up producing ideal colas dripping with cannabinoids and likely rich in Cannaflavins. Everyone will want this vigorous, easy to grow, trichome covered anomaly for their grow and their pipes. 20% Indica - 80% Sativa Flowering time: 55 days, Sept. 25 - Oct. 10 Effect: Uplifting, creative and energizing. Uncanny trichome density
