Green Phenotype Expression
Green phenotype expression refers to cannabis plants displaying predominantly green coloration in leaves, bracts, and calyxes throughout the flowering cycle, without significant anthocyanin or carotenoid pigmentation. This trait is controlled by multiple genetic factors and environmental conditions, with some lineages more predisposed to maintaining chlorophyll dominance. Breeders distinguish green phenotypes from purple, red, or orange-expressing plants to characterize strain families and predict visual outcomes. Environmental factors—particularly temperature, light spectrum, and nutrient availability—heavily influence whether genetic potential for color expression manifests. Documentation of green phenotype prevalence helps establish breeding records and inform growers about expected plant appearance under standard cultivation conditions.

Breeders tracking green phenotype expression use it as a visual marker for genetic stability and lineage consistency. Strains reliably producing green plants are often selected as parent material when color neutrality or specific aesthetic traits are breeding objectives.
