Growing Hemp: Field, Fibre and Grain

For growers and the merely curious, this section follows the crop from seedbed to storage. Topics include choosing grain, fibre or dual-purpose varieties, why day length governs when hemp flowers, soil and fertility needs, how a fast canopy suppresses weeds, and the awkward parts nobody mentions at the seminar: fibre wrapping around combine parts, retting in the field, and drying seed quickly to stop it spoiling. Regulatory and licensing questions are handled separately.
