Lineage

Lineage is the documented parental ancestry of a cannabis cultivar. Donny Burger's lineage is GMO x Han Solo Burger; RS11's lineage is Pink Guava x OZ Kush x Sunset Sherbet. Lineage matters for predicting effect profile, terpene tendencies, and growth characteristics. TerpDrop and other community trackers list lineage as a first-class data field, though many products ship as 'Unknown Lineage' when the seller can't confirm parents.

Example: The lineage on this Donny Burger — GMO x Han Solo Burger — explains the gas.

Etymology: Standard breeder vocabulary; long-standing in cannabis genetics circles.
