Transplanting

• We recommend you slowly introduce your clones to direct sunlight gradually for at least two days before transplanting outdoors.

 

• Transplant clones out of 72 count trays within a few days!!

 

• For maximum yields, plant outdoors between mid May and early July to allow them to become large plants before starting to flower. 

 

• All hemp varieties we offer are photoperiodic, meaning they begin to flower based on hours of daylight. 

Plant Spacing

  • The space required for a successful hemp crop varies depending on:
    • planting time
    • fertility
    • water (irrigation or rainfall)
    • hemp variety characteristics

 

  • Most hemp varieties are rapid growing and produce plants that can be over 8 feet tall and up to 8 feet wide.

 

  • Good airflow and light penetration are important for disease management and good bud formation.

 

  • A 6 x 6 foot spacing will allow about 1200 plants per acre.

 

  • A 8 x 8 foot spacing allows about 800 plants per acre.

 

  • We recommend spacing compact plants like our “Cherry” a minimum of 5 feet apart.

 

  • We recommend at least 8 feet distance between our other more vigorous varieties.

Healthy Plant Physiological Response

It is normal response in the propagation cycle for the fan shaped leaves to yellow and or die off. It is also possible that the lower leaves may yellow or completely die and fall off.
