Chemotype genetics-true
Chemotype
Type I
THC-dominant
Terpene profile most dominant first
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, 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 L.A. Chocolat
LA Confidential and Chocolope are our two most famous strains. Combining them is probably the most requested cross and most genius idea we ever came up with which resulted in… LA Chocolat - the cream of the crop, the best of the best, DNA’s top two strains combined! LA Chocolat has made improvements to both parents in this cross, the Chocolope gains the power of the LA Confidential and the LA gains the yields of the Chocolope. LA Chocolat gives you one strong medicinal hybrid that has high calyx to leaf ratio, early flower times and buds that taste like fruity, earthy, chocolate. The flower time is 8 weeks making it commercially viable, grows great indoors or for a quick finish outdoors and because the original LA structure is small it stops the stretch from the Chocolope so there is no need to pinch or top. LA Chocolat is a good strain to relieve pain and also great appetite stimulator for cancer and chemotherapy patients. Chocolope X LA Confidential
