A name, a cross and a chemical profile
Three ways of describing a plant—and three different questions.
On this page
The name
The name helps you find a listing or start a conversation. It is the most visible part of a strain page, but it is not a complete description of everything on that page.
The cross
Parentage connects a profile to its family. Follow the linked parents to explore those relationships. Preserve uncertain attribution rather than replacing an unknown parent with a plausible one.
The chemical profile
Chemical results describe measurements associated with a sample. Read the sample identifier, units and report details alongside the values. A parentage link and a measured value are answering different questions.
Use all three deliberately
When making notes, give the name, cross and sample results separate fields. It is easier to see what is known, what is claimed and what is missing when those fields have not been combined into a single confident sentence.
