Hemp fields have become synonymous with miles of plastic mulch. The labor-saving ground cover keeps weeds at bay but creates massive waste piles tossed into landfills at the end of the season. While it is the industry go-to for a reason, there are ot...

Lockdowns are a last resort in public health emergencies; it's the farming equivalent of plowing under your field to prevent further catastrophe. These measures are critical when little is known about the virulence, transmissibility, prevalence, and ...
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...
People have heard the hype. Daylight neutral (autoflower) plants are the next big thing in cannabis. Their life cycle is short, allowing for several harvests a year, and they can grow and flower under as many or as few hours of light as they are o...
Saying goodbye to John Prine from inside one of the greenhouses at our research and development facility. Prine will be missed. Legend.
Congratulations to the winners of the 2020 High Times Hemp Cup! It was an honor to see two of our varieties place on the podium for best flower, but an even bigger testament to the farmers who grew them, as the competition was stiff. A huge shoutout ...
Sowing hemp seeds directly into the field is theoretically the best way to go. Plants never experience damaged tap roots or transplant shock. Growth is never slowed by roots binding in their containers, and the risk of root born issues later on is si...
It's a bit bittersweet to announce amidst a global pandemic, but after 9 months of seed production and a frenetic month of package preparation by our crack shipping team, initial seed orders departed from our facility today. A tremendous thanks to ou...
Storing cannabis seeds is fairly simple and can keep them viable for decades, if done properly. We’ve tested batches of seed produced years prior and found germination rates still at upwards of 95%. Hemp seeds by nature require dormancy time, and w...
Good morning from Oregon CBD. This incredible time lapse of our ever-growing facilities was captured by talented farmer and photographer Alika Guillaume. The weather may still be grey but spring is in the air in the Willamette Valley. Fields are...
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...
Keeping our CBD seed and CBG seed production facilities clean and contamination free is a continuous job. Between each run we sterilize our greenhouses with a Dramm fogger. It micronizes particles so small that it requires extremely small amounts of ...
