Fiber Hemp Cultivars
Fiber hemp cultivars are cannabis varieties bred primarily for cellulose and bast fiber production rather than cannabinoid content. These plants typically exhibit tall, woody stems with minimal branching and reduced flower development—traits optimized for industrial processing. Aroma profiles in fiber cultivars are often subtle, dominated by grassy, herbal, or hay-like notes reflecting their agronomic focus. Lineage records frequently report that fiber-selected lines derive from landrace or European hemp breeding programs emphasizing stalk yield and fiber quality over terpene expression. Understanding fiber cultivar characteristics remains essential for breeders working in dual-purpose or agricultural hemp applications.

Breeders crossing fiber genetics into cannabis programs may introduce structural traits (height, internodal spacing, stem density) while managing terpene dilution. Fiber cultivar genetics serve as baseline references for studying how selection pressure on plant morphology affects secondary metabolite profiles.
