How does this work? Do you risk drying too quickly? Vacuum Oven Drying How common is this method? How does it work? We've seen growers who combined dry and cure, and even a few who would say curing is unnecessary - What are your thoughts? What makes a “good” cure? What kind of abiotic variables need to be considered when curing? What's your recommended method for curing? OK, you we did all this work to make sure we had the best post-harvest period possible for our plants - what's the best way to store it?

You are writing a book chapter on Canopy Management, it's not out yet, but we got a sneak peak. I'd love a basic primer on canopy management - How would you sum up the importance of proper canopy management and the effects it can have on your crop? What do people forget/get wrong/neglect when it comes to managing their canopy? What kind of factors need to be considered? Can you give us a brief rundown and then we can dig in a little deeper? Physiological Factors Light Interception Is a flat canopy enough? Leaf area Index What is it? Different for different plants? How do you measure it? What's the best Leaf Area Index for cannabis? Shade Avoidance What is this? What is the overall impact on the plant? How does proper (or improper) canopy management affect the plant growth? Ultimately, a primary goal of canopy management is to increase yield and potency How else can canopy management benefit the final product? I came across something in my reading and I'd like to know more about the Source/Sink relationship? Does it differ during different stages of the plant life cycle? What is it and how does canopy management affect it? We've talked to a lot of growers about airflow, but it's usually in the context of disease prevention, and I've not come across something quite as granular as you've written about. Can you explain the importance and then go more into detail about the boundary layer and how it's thickness affects physiological processes? Is there any correlation between airflow and increased yield? Or is it ultimately about pest and disease prevention? As we wrap up, what are your goals with Canna Cribs Consulting? Are there any projects you have going currently that you'd like to tell us about? Is there anything we didn't get a chance to discuss that you'd like to mention?

    About HSC "Humboldt Seed Company is on a mission to provide high-quality cannabis seeds to customers who want to grow their own cannabis plants. Founded in 2001 by biologists in Humboldt County, CA, we began breeding for patients under Prop 215. We have since evolved for the recreational market. Our Clean Green Certified seeds are available in several states at select retailers. We breed our seeds on our farm in Northeastern Humboldt County, CA. In 2018 we hosted the World’s Largest Phenotype Hunt through a collaborative genetic clone pursuit, teaming with local farm friends we choose the top percentile clones. The selections are now available in California and Oregon nurseries. The whole point is that we only keep the very best of the best.”Powered by House & Garden and Royal Gold: https://www.house-garden.us https://www.royalgoldcoco.com/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Subscribe for more amazing videos! ►https://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-Growers-N...You can join the forum and learn more about growing at: www.growersnetwork.org Follow us on Instagram: http://instagram.com/cannacribs http://instagram.com/growersnetworkTable of Contents 0:00 Opening 1:52 Nat's Background with Humboldt County 17:00 Breakdown of Seed Companies 26:19 Cannabis Seeds vs. Cannabis Clones 38:30 Phylos Bioscience Update 50:58 10,000 Plant Mega Phenohunt 1:05:22 Humboldt Seed Company Business Model 1:25:00 Autoflower Genetics~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~#humboldt #cannabis #growingcannabis #cannabisoil #growingmarijuana #medicalmarijuana #marijuana #howtogrowweed #cannacribs #2020business #industry #podcast #tucson #smoke #weedeveryday #weed #smokingweed #maryjane #dispensary #customgrow420 #qualitycontrol #vape #DeepRoots #howhigh #cannacribspodcast #houseandgarden #royalgold #pheno #autoflower
