Short Internode Spacing
Short internode spacing refers to the physical distance between nodes (leaf attachment points) along a cannabis stem being relatively compact or tightly clustered. Plants exhibiting this trait typically develop a bushier, more densely-branched structure compared to long-internode varieties. This characteristic is often associated with indica-leaning genetics, though photoperiod, light intensity, and growing conditions also influence final spacing. Breeders working in this category frequently value short internode spacing for maximizing canopy density and flower site production in confined spaces. Documentation of internode length remains important for predictive crop planning, particularly in controlled indoor environments.

Breeders selectively work with short internode spacing to develop cultivars suited to space-constrained production and to improve light penetration through dense canopies. This trait is regularly crossed into breeding programs targeting compact plant architecture for commercial cultivation efficiency.
