GENETICS BEYOND THE ORDINARY

Polyploid Cannabis & Structural Amplification

This is where Raven’s Alchemy steps fully into advanced breeding.

Most cannabis is diploid (2n)—two chromosome sets. Raven’s Alchemy explores what happens when that limitation is removed.


🔬 Tetraploid Cannabis (4n)

Tetraploids carry four chromosome sets, resulting in:

  • Four nodes stacked at a single internode
  • Increased meristem density
  • Thickened vascular systems
  • Larger floral organs

In your program, this translated into:

📈 3.72× wet shucked yield
🧱 33 active nodes vs ~18 in diploids
🌿 Sustained flower support without collapse

This is architecture-driven yield, not nutrient abuse.


🧪 Triploids, Pentaploids & Experimental Lines

These ploidies are explored cautiously:

  • Triploids → reduced fertility, dense flower focus
  • Pentaploids → experimental vigor and instability

Not all expressions are commercial—but all are informative.
