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 Green Crack

Known for many years as the “Mango”, Green Crack’s name was coined by the famous Snoop Dogg in the early 2000’s. With an Indica-dominant market, there are a few outstanding Sativas that have made a long-lasting impression on California and the rest of the North American smoke culture, except this one. Comprised of a Skunk #1 and an isolated Afghani, this combination resulted in a fast-growing, high-yielding plant with a short flowering period, finishing extremely resinous and pungent. Indoors, Green Crack seeds have rapid vegetative growth displaying large thin fan leaves with long spaces between inter-nodal sites allowing for good light penetration. Footprints can be filled quite quickly as trellising is highly recommended to support very large terminal colas in later stages of development. Green Crack is nitrogen demanding backed by a generally high metabolism. With just an eight-week finish it’s hard to deny this plant’s overall performance. Outdoors, Green Crack can be expected to be harvested in the first week of October. Cages are recommended, accompanied by secondary support for the finishing stages. Plants can reach heights of 12-16 feet contingent upon the diet, planting s
