A cultivar is sometimes used interchangeably with variety or strain, as all three define a group of plant offspring descended from a common ancestor or mother plant. With cannabis, a cultivar can also be and commonly is a clone, created asexually through propagation. Clone cultivars are nearly identical to the mother plant with minor exceptions from random mutations during cell division. A cannabis cultivar can be a type of plant that has been specifically bred for desired traits.
