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 Pure Michigan
Pure Michigan stands out as one of the strongest cannabis strains available. Adding to her unusual potency, Pure Michigan also exhibits rather rare flavors that may cause some division among cannabis connoisseurs. Discover everything you need to know about this cultivar below, including her genetic background, effects, and uses. History of Pure Michigan Pure Michigan emerged from a collaborative breeding project between ThugPug Genetics and 3rd Coast Genetics. As you can probably guess from the name of this cultivar, both of these breeders hail from the great American state of Michigan. ThugPug Genetics gained a reputation in the United States and elsewhere for their potent and unique varieties, including the likes of Peanut Butter Breath and Meat Breath. Likewise, 3rd Coast Genetics has also turned many heads with their artful approach to cannabis breeding. After putting their experienced minds together, the breeders managed to tease out a massive THC content of 29% in Pure Michigan. The sheer psychoactivity of their creation quickly attracted many keen growers and smokers, helping this cultivar become massively popular in a short window of time.
