Omega 6 Fatty Acids
Omega-6 fatty acids are polyunsaturated lipids found in cannabis seeds and plant tissues, not volatile terpenes in the traditional aromatic sense. These compounds exist in the seed coat and cell membranes rather than in the resinous trichomes responsible for characteristic cannabis aromas. Lineage records and breeding documentation occasionally reference omega-6 content when evaluating seed quality and nutritional plant composition. Breeders working with seed-focused genetics may monitor fatty acid profiles as part of broader phytochemical assessment, though this trait remains secondary to cannabinoid and primary terpene selection in most breeding programs.

Omega-6 fatty acid profiles are occasionally tracked in breeding lines developed for seed production or whole-plant nutritional assessment. However, conventional cannabis breeding prioritizes volatile terpenes and cannabinoids over fatty acid composition, making this a tertiary consideration in most commercial and research programs.
