The fact that companies don't have to label now is worrisome but when a company does label NON GMO, I am their customer. If it has no label I don't buy it. Even animal food. If you are looking for a great addition to your garden book library, Jorge Cervantes 'The Cannabis Encyclopedia' is mind boggling great! GMO Cannabis is hopefully not going to happen but...there was someone who did genetically enhance the THC about 20 years ago. That strain when used in combination with opiods is a killer. It reacts with the opiods... | |

| Aug 9, 2017 at 23:06 | comment | added | stormy | Is this like 'Ruderalis'? What I've heard which is very little is that this plant in particular has a 'set' timer for it to go into reproductive mode. I hesitate to go with too young of plants made to go reproductive too soon. I guess that info is from Jorge. The detail in his encyclopedia is brilliant. Very very very little do I disagree about and that is saying something...grins. | |

You are saying that they GMO'ed the hemp with these 24/7 plants with light and that is how they are able to kick a plant into reproductive growth immediately? Huh. I have to look this up. The pot growing has been one of the best things for plant study. Lots of minds involved in understanding just one plant. Interesting twist. Making gardeners out of us big time...Jorge Cervantes has an amazing book out about this plant that is so detailed and clearly written; "The Cannibis Encyclopedia'...excellent information for growing all plants! | |

These traits (genes) are sometimes used by plant breeders for new plant varieties. This is why I did mention the Arctics. In the Netherlands for instance we have a lot of hemp home growing, and since some time they came up with autoflowering plants. This autoflowering trait was taken from Siberian sister species. This new plant variety doesn't react on daylight length but begins to flower immediately. | |
