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.

Grow type: outdoor, greenhouse,indoors Classic Hawaiian Sativa from the 70’s. Quick, very special, pleasant aromas of pineapple, pine, fruit, solvent. Some phenotypes show pink and red stigmas with abundant resin, resistant to high temperatures up to 40°C and very high humidity.The sativas from Maui show two expressions within which we can find 5 phenotypes. Some have loose flowers and others have medium stature with semi-wide stature. In these seeds you will find sativa plants with beautiful vigor and an abundant foliage of medium internodal spaces, stems that vary from intense red to black. There is one veined between green and reddish purple. Hollow stems for smaller phenos and more compact for plants with higher expressions. Smaller plants measure from 120 cm and the highest 180 cm. The vegetative period is 11 to 15 weeks with a foliage of average growth of 7 lea
