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 The Soap

The Soap is a hybrid cannabis strain created by some of the US' most renowned breeders. As its name suggests, The Soap has a peculiar aroma and flavor with hints of pine, mint, and roses—oddly reminiscent of hand soap.

History of The Soap Cannabis Strain The Soap is a hybrid cannabis strain created by Seed Junky Genetics in collaboration with Cookies. The Soap was the flagship strain of Minntz, one of many banner brands launched by Berner and Cookies in collaboration with other breeders and seed banks. Some other popular strains from the MInntz menu include: • Jealousy • Christmas Tree Along with Grandiflora, Cookies and Seed Junky debuted the Minntz brand at the 2019 Emerald Cannabis Cup. The Soap also debuted at the cup and was bred sometime between 2018 and 2019 by Seed Junky's founder, JBeezy (AKA Anthony Hart). Genetic Lineage of The Soap The Soap is a hybrid strain stemming from a cross of Animal Mints and Kush Mints. Below we'll take a look at both of these strains to see how they may have influenced T
