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 Sticky Buns
Few strains boast aromas and flavors that do their elaborate names justice. Sticky Buns, however, is an exception. This hybrid strain created by some of the US' biggest geneticists smells and tastes just like freshly baked, glazed cinnamon buns. Plus, it boasts a heavy-handed stone that almost mimics the food coma you'd be left in after scoffing down too many delectable pastries. Keep reading to learn more about the Sticky Buns strain, including its origins, genetics, effects, and more. History of the Sticky Buns Cannabis Strain Sticky Buns is a hybrid weed strain resulting from a collaboration between two of the US' most prominent cannabis brands: Cookies and Seed Junky Genetics. Cookies was founded in 2008 by rapper/entrepreneur Berner and grower/breeder Jai. Starting out humbly as The Cookies Fam from a San Francisco garage, Berner and Jai found success after creating GSC, formerly known as Girl Scout Cookies. A cross of OG Kush and Durban Poison, GSC is one of the most influential strains ever created. During the 2010s, GSC and the Cookies line it gave birth to were practically the only thing on smokers' lips, and even today Cookies strains continue to get a lot of attention. R
