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 Prism
Prism – the marvelous result of the combination of two stunning strains: Pineapple Express and Huckleberry Soda. Back in the day when we were first gifted our Pineapple Express cut, our kind gift giver declared that it shall be one of the very best strains that we shall ever grow because “It has it all.” In breeding, one hears this claim so frequently that it becomes shrill. Half way through our first harvest of Pineapple Express, we realized we had a top performer — one that we’ve dignified by its inclusion to our winners circle of our Top 5 strains. While cuts of Pineapple Express circulate widely, we have yet to encounter a cut that is exactly the same as ours. Aside from Prism, we have crossed Pineapple Express to create other incredibly potent cultivars; some of which are also available in seed form. Purple Pineapple Express, for example. As far as Prism’s father Huckleberry Soda goes, he came about when we hit our nonpareil Black Cherry Soda cultivar with pollen from a Huckleberry Hound. We had hoped to find a BCS-like male amongst the progeny. That we found in a superlative male that had the same traits we most desired, and, hence, named the strain Huckleberry Soda: an absol
