Aroma Phenotype
Aroma phenotype refers to the observable aromatic expression of a cannabis plant, determined by its genetic makeup and environmental factors. This phenotypic expression results from the plant's terpene profile—the combination and concentration of volatile aromatic compounds produced during growth and maturation. Lineage records frequently report that plants from identical seed batches can exhibit noticeably different aroma phenotypes depending on cultivation conditions, nutrient regimens, and post-harvest handling. Breeders identify and document aroma phenotypes to establish stable, recognizable characteristics within a strain family. Understanding aroma phenotypes is foundational to strain classification and breeding selection programs.

Breeders selectively stabilize aroma phenotypes across generations to create predictable, commercially recognizable strains. Detailed aroma profiling during pheno-hunting helps identify which genetic expressions are stable enough for seed production or cultivar registration.
