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 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 Mau-Mau

Mau Mau is an homage we wanted to give to an amazing UK street/Graf artist, we really love his eco stance and wanted to do a lil something for him, we used a blockhead indy dom and crossed it to a male killa queen F6 from our own stock, the result is some amazing crystal covered buds that turns golden once ready to be picked ! We sent some buds to mau-mau to have is approval, since he loved the weed so much he decided to design the seed pack, praising peter tosh old LP legalize it, we are really touched by this... enjoy dem mau-mau seeds as much as we do. Mau Mau is very easy to grow, not ferts sensitives, harvest will depends on your growing skills but 35gr is easily achievable in less than 60 days of flowering using a 400w hid, we mostly grow soil & organics. And encourage you to do the same if you want to bring the best taste to your herbs. We just got result from the labs, they used a mass specrometer - gas chromatograph and the mau mau came out at CBD: 0,5% / THC: 16.4%
