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 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 Silver LA

Silver LA is a big yielding, fast flowering, mostly sativa strain that produces super sticky flowers that have the LA scent with spicy hazy undertones of Silver Bubble. Growing Silver LA is great due to its fast veg time, mould resistance, and great yields. IF YOU’RE INTO CONCENTRATES this is a great plant to use. Terpenes really come through in concentrates, but more than the flavor, the Silver LA will knock you down with its strength. The Silver LA will soon be a favorite in your garden and being a 9 week flowering strain also makes the Silver LA commercially viable. Silver Bubble x LA Confidential 40% Sativa: 60% Indica Flowering Time: 8-9 Weeks Yield: 400-500g/m2
