Seed Size And Shape
Seed size and shape are observable morphological traits that reflect genetic and environmental factors during seed development. Cannabis seeds typically range from 3–4mm in diameter, though variation exists depending on parent plant vigor, pollination efficiency, and growing conditions. Seed coat appearance—color, pattern, and texture—can indicate maturity and viability, with darker, mottled seeds generally showing higher germination rates than pale or underdeveloped ones. Shape consistency within a cross often signals stable breeding lines, while extreme variation may suggest genetic instability or environmental stress during seed set. Breeders monitor these traits as secondary markers of genetic stability and seed quality.

Breeders track seed size and shape uniformity as indicators of F1 hybrid vigor and line stability. Consistent seed morphology across generations suggests reliable breeding stock and predictable germination performance in cultivation.
