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 50%Sativa 50%

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 Six Shooter

Six Shooter is an original selection from multiple crosses and backcrosses we did between six different strains. We started out with a Haze x Super Skunk x Northern Light’s female and crossed that with a male selected from our Brazilian X Paki cross. Taking the best of the batch we then proceeded to back cross this with the male for more vigor production and to reduce the flowering period. Finally, we crossed our selection with our Royal Dutch TrainWreck to bring to you what we now call our 6 Shooter. The result is a massive yielder with a fruity taste; skunky aroma and a deep and dark effect. Flowering Time: Medium, Long Height: Medium THC Level: Med/High
