in lamens terms

a phenotype is the parts of a plant that we can make a judgment on through either looking at it, tasting it or smelling it.

phenotypes examples
a skunk taste or fruity taste is a pheno type,
leaf/bud colour is a phenotype,
fat leaves or skinny leaves is a phenotype

indica/ sativa is not a phenotype their sub species and the species traits come from its genotype so a more accurate description would be this.

generally Indicas show the phenotypes of something like this
short plants
short fat rounded leaves
effects generally produce a stoned feeling
resinous buds

Sativas
tall plants
long slender leaves
energetic high
not so resinous buds

as said basically everything to do with the whole plant from the outside that we can make judgments on.

the genotype of a plant will control how your plant looks from the inside basically its genetics and all the way the plants going to look and grow. the phenotype is the end result from the genotype or more so the characteristics the plant shows from its genotype.

So hows things westie whats been cracking

Thanks for the detailed input Jester.

"Phenos" are different variations of a strain.

Take humans for example: If a black man and a white woman had children, some would be darker skinned, some lighter, some with blue eyes, some without.

This is an example of different "phenos" in the family. It's just the variation in the genetics.

For example, I'm growing NL x skunk right now, and one pheno is taller (sativa pheno) and WAYYY more resinous. It's not as big a yielder as the shorter (indica pheno) but the indica is also less dank. This is just an example of the strain I'm using. It can be different for every strain.

Some phenos are so rare, even sometimes 1 out of 1000 plants, that these are what make up these "elite" crazy fucking strains. They make them a mother and clone/cross breed the shit out of.

So in reality, there's no really "bad" pheno unless it's just a waste to grow. But you wouldn't be able to know this, unless it was a clone of the exact pheno. Then all the clones will have that pheno's traits.

Below is a link to a plant I have growing (tree like potential). It's a bush and it is so dense I can't get to the stalk. My buddy and I each got a clone of this plant months ago. His plant is as tall but only 10-12" wide...not nearly as dense. Mine is as wide as it is dense. If you go to the last pages of my thread it gives you more current shots. I would definately call this a pheno. I want some seeds of a big producer to cross her with if she winds up bieng big but not the greatest producer. She has good "Big" genes but I have no clue about the buds she will produce.

She was supposed to be LA Conf. a big time indica...I don't think so.
