Something no one is talking about in the Hemp language: R F K jr gets to set the terms?
At the risk of pointing out the obvious, this is bad news.
Because he's demonstrated time and time again he doesn't understand biology. Especially human biology. So why would he be an expert in plant biology?

Did I miss #trichedouttuesday again?
Here's some landrace trichs for your #weedwednesday!
Found a frosty pheno of Purple Zacatecas. Lovely citrus terps. Small buds, but looks like they will wash well.

Does anyone have that guilty pleasure strain that doesn't yield but you keep growing it because it slaps?
This is mine. A Bacio S1 pheno. Grape gas candy.

It's #MetalMonday 🤘
What's more metal that using the 15 foot skeleton of last year's cannabis plant as a trellis for this year's hops?
I wanted to bring the Sorachi Ace hops in the #CannabaceaeGarden out from the fence line for more light exposure.
So far, so good

🚨 Landrace Cannabis Sequencing Alert!
Columbian researchers have sequenced and assembled a "Punto Rojo" genome.
"In the 60s and 70s, illicit shipments of Type I (THC-dominant) Punto Rojo found favor among American consumers due to its special effects, which were thought to be more psychedelic"

My fav pheno from a Bacio hunt
What do y'all think?
She needed an extra week compared to the others and has lovely deep red to almost black anthos in leaves
Gotta say this one has strong gas and funky grape and candy aroma. ☑️

Do you see pink/purple in the first picture?
If so it's entirely from purple trichome heads!
It's a bit of an optical illusion/snow globe diffraction effect. The basal/secretory cells are the only part that are making anthocyanins in this one - but the whole bud appears purple when mature!

Cool cool cool. Just jamming the gears of all in process trials and experiments.
And in true fascist fashion, scientists are "forbidden to speak with the media" about what is happening.

Another reason to grow cannabis in soil - not sterile Rockwool or Coco while drip tubing synthetic fertilizer like a coma patient hooked up to a feeding tube.
The cannabis microbiome is usually overlooked entirely in indoor setups.

A new study from Danish researchers performed cryo-EM on the CB1 receptor bound to HU-210.
HU-210 is essentially THCP with a modified carbon tail. It is 100-800X more potent than THC at CB1. (Intoxicating hempsters - please, please don't start selling this because you will actually kill people).

If it's all about the terps, some UV light may help.
A new study from German researchers showed a small dose of UVA can increase common terpenes in a type 3 plant (CBD) trialed.
However, it could come at the cost of Cannabinoids and other agronomic metrics like yield.

Hops are the closest relatives to cannabis. Their trichomes are also where all the goodies are. I grow both in my #CannabaceaeGarden
