Chemotype
Type I
THC-dominant
Chemotype — the cannabinoid and terpene profile — is the lab-verifiable 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). Cannabinoid type is set largely by a single gene (the THC:CBD ratio); about 96% of commercial flower is Type I, THC-dominant. Terpene profiles are sourced from Certificates of Analysis (COA) and roll out as Areto’s lab-verified 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 Mango Crunch
Mango Crunch: High Levels Of THC And Fruity, Sour Terps
Mango Crunch is the result of a long and complex breeding process. Our aim was to produce a cultivar that targets both the sweet and sour taste buds simultaneously. Of course, she also needed to provide a hard-hitting and enjoyable high. To achieve this, our breeders combined two parent strains from opposite sides of the pond. They recruited an old indica cultivar from the north of Holland, and a sativa hybrid from the legendary Emerald Triangle in Northern California. With specimens from two international cannabis meccas, our breeders were ready to work their magic. Mango Crunch emerged from this combination as a hybrid strain featuring 20% indica genetics and 80% sativa. EFFECTS, FLAVOUR, AND AROMA OF MANGO CRUNCH
Mango Crunch’s closely balanced genetic profile produces varying effects. Users will note euphoric and stimulating qualities alongside stoning and sedating properties. The high begins as a cerebral, motivating experience that is superb for physical activities. You’ll enter a deep flow state while running or surfing and feel an intense mind-muscle connection. After a while, the cognitive effects start to fade. The h
