RKS Breeder Documentation
The Sage N Sour stabilized line has been carried through phenotype-driven selection across multiple generations. The reference phenotype documents the citrus-forward terpene expression, vigorous sativa structure, and consistently elevated THCa output that define the line. The data on this report reflects the genetic potential of the RKS Sage N Sour stabilized line, a reference benchmark for what growers using these seeds can expect in the upper percentile of phenotypes, not an independent COA. The line traces to a Thai Landrace × Green Crack cross, with each generation selected to fix the traits that define Sage N Sour.
Breeding Objective · SNS-Pheno #2
- Intensify the dominant terpene expression of the line
- Reduce structural variation across cohort
- Improve mold & powdery-mildew resistance under high-humidity flower
- Lock the flowering window with ≤ 7 day cohort variance

Phenotype Consistency & Stabilization Line
Phenotype Consistency
The values reported on this Certificate reflect the top-performing phenotype(SNS-Pheno #2) selected from a 10-plant cohort of the RKS Sage N Sour Auto line. Across three production cycles, individual plants from this seed line have fallen within a 10–15% variation envelope on total cannabinoids and total terpene yield when grown under comparable indoor conditions.
Note: phenotype expression is subject to environmental conditions (light, nutrients, VPD, training). These figures are not a guarantee of grow outcome.
Stabilization Status
AUTO F5This line has been stabilized through successive inbred generations with phenotype-driven selection. Trait-locking criteria for the SNS-Pheno #2 selection:
- Pine-forward expression (Pinene > 0.25%)
- Cerebral, energizing effect profile
- Stable internodal spacing
- Tolerant of long flower windows (10+ weeks)
- Resin density ≥ 25% trichome coverage
- Cohort flowering variance ≤ 8 days

Disclaimer of variation · Results published in this Certificate represent a selected phenotype of the RKS Sage N Sour Auto stabilized line under controlled indoor conditions. Individual seedlings may produce plants that vary by approximately 10–15% on total cannabinoids and terpene output, and may express alternate phenotypes within the line. Final cannabinoid and terpene expression is subject to cultivator inputs, lighting, substrate, nutrient regime, environment, and training technique. This document is intended as a reference benchmark of the genetic potential of the RKS Sage N Sourline, not as a guarantee of any individual plant’s outcome.
Note for seed buyers · This Certificate analyzes mature, cured flower from a selected reference plant cultivated by the RKS breeding team under controlled conditions. Seed-grown plants may vary slightly from the tested phenotype depending on environment, nutrient regime, and grower input. For best expression of the SNS-Pheno #2profile, follow the cultivation reference outlined in the “Expected Grow Outcomes” section above.
