Seed Composition
Seed composition refers to the genetic and biochemical makeup of cannabis seeds, including cannabinoid ratios, terpene profiles, and growth potential encoded within the seed itself. This trait is determined by parent plant genetics and breeding selection, not by terpene aroma profiles alone. Understanding seed composition is foundational for breeders seeking consistent offspring phenotypes and for cultivators planning cultivation strategies. Seed composition data—when available through genetic testing—informs decisions about which cultivars to propagate or cross. This category bridges seed science with breeding practice, distinct from post-harvest terpene analysis.

Breeders prioritize seed composition analysis when establishing true-breeding lines or developing F1 hybrids with predictable cannabinoid and terpene expression. Genetic markers and phenotypic screening of parent plants help breeders forecast seed composition outcomes across generations.
