In recent years there has been a big buzz building around novel cannabinoids. Initially THC and CBD were the only go to’s for human consumption, but the desire to explore and experience the unknown has led to consumers and health professionals alik...

Female cannabis plants are often threatened by male pollen coming from a neighbor's garden. Now though, regular breeding has created the first cannabis triploid plants. This naturally occurring plant type not only is impervious to unexpected pollen, ...
How did we create 100% federally legal varieties for 2021? Seth explains the 3 year "varinization" breeding program implemented by the Oregon CBD team with Medicinal Genomics's Ben Amirault. We can't wait to get these CBDV and CBGV rich seed varietie...
Cannabinoid synthase genes are responsible for converting precursor chemicals into the cannabinoids we all love and benefit from. The genes are classified based on their nucleotide sequence similarity and the resulting compounds produced--CBGA, CBDA,...
An oft-asked question: what is the terpene profile of variety x? This is shorthand for a larger question that science is currently trying to answer, which is: what compounds are responsible for detectable aroma in cannabis? Fi...
Mean: average value in a population. Standard Deviation: measure of dispersion (i.e. how spread out are your numbers?)Total cannabinoid (TC) content (the sum of all cannabinoids by weight) is normally distributed within varieties. By definition under...
Oregon CBD plant pathologist Dr. Andrea Garfinkel has published a research note on her botrytis work on hemp in the Pacific Northwest conducted last fall in the journal "Plant Research." Genomic sequencing of botrytis isolates revealed thre...
Understanding cannabinoid synthase in cannabis plants isn't so simple. But with genomic sequencing we are learning the mechanisms responsible for the creation of THCa, CBDa, and CBGa production in plants. With this knowledge we are able to confidentl...
Just a basic photo as the sun sets on the first era of "new hemp" in the US. Words cannot express how thankful we are to the farmers who have supported us over the past 5 years. Your trust has allowed us to expand our capabilities for discovery beyon...
Long before our seeds reach public hands they are trialed on our 50-acre R&D plot (pictured above) for field readiness. In 2019, our genetics were also trialed alongside other reputable varieties by North Carolina State University's Hemp Ext...
Compliance With new USDA hemp testing protocol hitting states across the nation, it is an unsettling time for hemp producers. As it should be. For those facing total THC testing 15 days out from harvest, it is imperative to understand ...
The point of US intellectual property protection is to provide priority and protection to those who innovate or discover novelty in exchange for vesting those discoveries in the public sphere after a period of time--the information is published short...
