Cannabis is now a commercial crop, but cultivar identity is still often carried by names, stories, and assumptions. Those signals matter, but they are not enough for a mature genetics market.
A genetic identification system gives breeders and cultivators a way to compare samples, preserve records, and reduce confusion when names and plant material drift apart.
The system should make identity easier to review
- Clear sample submission records.
- Consistent genetic comparison methods.
- Public language that separates identity evidence from rights decisions.
- A reference collection that improves as more records are added.
