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 Royal Purple Kush
Purple Kush #1 is a new introduction to the BCO lineup for 2009 seasons and beyond, it as wonderful combination of two of our most proven breeding lines. For a number of years we have worked with the Pure Purple Haze mother, a true Purple that combines a simply incredible quality of high with divine deep, aged burgundy wine flavours. The Purple Haze mothers have been combined with our Pure Purple Chitrali #1 males, themselves proven in multiple BCO hybrids to date. Our goal from the outset of the original combination of these plants was to capture the quality of high, beauty and amazing depth of tastes of the Purple Haze mother. Through careful painstaking selections and tested combinations we have found a group of plants that allow us to deliver these truly special traits in a Indica dominant plant form for the indoor grower, and those seeking simply the finest Purple herb's. For the outdoor grower, these plants grow to large framed xmas tree shapes and produce huge yields of very dense Purple herb's that are impervious to rain induced moulds. For the indoor grower, the plants will grow to smaller tighter profile and produce very large central Cola's. Indoors or outdoors the finis
