Calyx Spacing
Calyx spacing refers to the physical distance between individual calyces along a cannabis flower's central axis, a structural trait rather than a terpene profile. Breeders observe tight versus loose calyx arrangements as a phenotypic marker influenced by genetics and environmental conditions. Tightly-spaced calyces often correlate with denser flower structure, while wider spacing may affect final bud density and visual presentation. This trait is frequently documented in lineage records and breeding notes as part of plant architecture assessment. Understanding calyx spacing helps breeders select for desired flower morphology across generations.

Calyx spacing is a heritable structural trait that breeders actively select for when targeting specific flower densities, yields, and aesthetic profiles. Backcrossing programs often prioritize tight calyx spacing to maximize cannabinoid-bearing surface area per gram of dried flower.
