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 Stella Blue
The favourite smoke in Coffeeshop AnyDay is “Stella Blue” This plant originated in Humboldt County, CA and was brought over to Holland as 2 babies wrapped up in a bouquet of flowers. The grower, who they call “Old School”, has worked with this “Stella Blue” in Holland using the same techniques as he used in Humboldt County for so many years. It is approximately 70% Sativa and is 100% organic. Indeed, this is a very special plant. From smokers guide:
Origin: Sativa, Humboldt County, Bio. We were told that this was originally called Rick & Terry's Old School but that name is too damn long, eh!
Look: Compact, medium-light green, crystal covered "woven" lookin' bud (at first look and smell, this is seeming a lot like Old Toby!) Bits of orange hairs, few broader leaves left on and all of them covered with large resin crystals. This herb looks gorgeous.
Smell: The smell is even better. Super fruity! This is one of the best smelling greens of 2003 so far! A blueberry-jawbreaker scent, with tones of orange and mixed fruit. So fresh, words can't describe; people smelling this garden would think there's a candy factory in the hood.
Taste: Almost like a cleaner product crossed with grenadine
