Airflow Characteristics
Airflow characteristics refer to how cannabis plant architecture and canopy density affect air circulation through the growing medium and foliage. Dense, tightly-branched phenotypes restrict airflow, while open, spacious structures promote it. Breeders working in indoor cultivation often select for open plant structures to reduce humidity pockets and disease pressure. Outdoor strains with sparser branching patterns similarly benefit from natural convection. Airflow management is a structural breeding consideration distinct from terpene chemistry, though often discussed alongside cultivation traits. Proper airflow during growth phases influences nutrient uptake, transpiration rates, and overall plant health across environments.

Breeders intentionally select for node spacing, branch angle, and internode length to optimize airflow in target growing conditions. Open-structure phenotypes are prioritized in high-humidity regions or indoor operations where mold and mildew pressure is significant.
