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 Sour OG Cheese
A limited cultivar from ETHOS Genetics, Sour OG Cheese （SOGC） is an Indica-dominant hybrid with the best traits of its parents combined. This genotype is known for strong growth, exceptional trichome coverage, and fantastic yields of dense buds. The plant stature is medium/bushy, with exceptionally sturdy stems that support truly massive foliage （especially the fan leaves powering secondary branches, which can grow to over 1 ft. long!）. Internode spacing is large, and branches tend to be malleable, yet not brittle, often growing in straight lines or in long, bow-like arcs curving outward/upward. SOGC is an excellent option for a high-yield, easy-to-grow cultivar that doesn't sacrifice quality, testing at 〉30% total cannabinoids! It stinks; in a good way. Rubbing the beautiful lime-green stem of the aptly-named SOGC will blast you with a pungent, cheesy preview of the dank to come, with mature buds that reek of funky, cheesy perfection with sour/musky/floral undertones. SOGC perfectly balances the powerful relaxation of a potent Indica with uplifting Sativa energy, creating long-lasting euphoria without extreme fatigue or couch-lock. The medical benefits of SOGC are numerous, but ma
