== Flowering type == ~~There~~Two categories are ~~two~~used ~~categories that~~to define how cannabis plants enter the flowering stage: Autoflowering plants that "automatically" enter the flowering stage after a period of time, and photo flower plants that enter flowering based on photoperiod (how many hours of light they receive per day). The genetic trait of automatic flowering is made possible by breeding "regular" ~~photoflowering~~photo-flowering strains with Cannabis Ruderalis. === Autoflower === Autoflowering plants naturally have a short life span of around 80-90 days, in this time (given good conditions) the plant will go through the cannabis [[Life Stages\|life stages]]. Autoflowers don't rely on light schedule to flower so they can be exposed to higher [[Light#DLI .28Daily light Intergral.29\|DLIs]]. After harvesting it is not possible to re-vegetate the plant again. * [https://en.seedfinder.eu/database/strains/cbd-rich/same-amount-of-thc-and-cbd/ List of 1:1 strains on seedfinder.eu] == ~~Terpene~~Aroma ~~content~~and taste == The aroma and taste of Cannabis is created by the composition of terpenes and other aromatic volatile compound<ref>Minor, Nonterpenoid Volatile Compounds Drive the Aroma Differences of Exotic Cannabis - Oswald et al. 2023 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10601067/</ref>. While terpenes are widely known, there is ongoing research to uncover how these compounds define the aroma profile. ~~Terpenes are compounds that create the taste and aroma of cannabis.

In Cannabis, [[Anatomy of Cannabis#Node\|nodes]] generally have two ~~braches~~branches opposite each other on the stem they are growing from. When whorled phyllotaxy occurs 3 branches can grow from the same node. ==== ~~Polyploid~~Fasciation ==== [[File:Fasciation cola.png\|thumb\|Fasciated cola]] Often mistaken for Polyploidy. This is the development of flat elongated stems. [[Anatomy of Cannabis#Cola\|Colas]] with fasciation may have multiple buds at the top. Colas on fasciated stems will have more leaves than regular colas and reduced trichrome count. == Notable strains == Modern genetics has given us cannabis with a [https://dutch-passion.com/en/blog/understanding-and-using-cannabis-leaves-n985 wide variety of leaf apperances] * Lowryder.
