Silver from day one! You can't see through them at any point. Visually and texturally, it's as if the trichome head is carrying a cloudy diamond.

Hemp Products in the OLCC System

Approval Process Coming January 5th


The Oregon Liquor Control Commission recently adopted rules for the regulation of hemp and hemp products that enter the OLCC licensed recreational marijuana system. The rules took effect December 28, 2017.

On or before Friday, January 5, 2018 the OLCC will publish the administrative process and forms for existing OLCC marijuana licensed processors, and Oregon Department of Agriculture approved hemp growers and handlers, to follow to obtain approval to bring hemp into the OLCC system.

The framework for the OLCC’s hemp rules were developed after the passage of Oregon Senate Bill 1015. The OLCC held meetings in August and October 2017 with members of the hemp industry to discuss, review and adjust proposed rules.

The OLCC held a public hearing on the proposed rules on November 15, 2017, and a public comment period extended after the hearing to closure on November 29, 2017..

OLCC marijuana licensees and other interested parties will be notified when the administrative process and forms are posted to the OLCC recreational marijuana website.

I do think CBG will become the smoke of choice for those in the 35+ crowd who still likes to smoke. It's a really nice effect--it creates a perceptible head change, but no psychoactivity. A combo of CBD and CBG is nice as well.

Thanks for the post Robrites. We're excited to legally share our work with other Oregon companies now--but hell, this is Oregon...we'll see how it goes!

What scale have you guys found to be the most useful for weighing barrels and palletized totes?

[socioecologist]

ULine pallet jack with built-in scale. Great for anything requiring no more than 1lb of accuracy.

What do you think of this analysis?
By chance, we found that hemp contains only cbg... this hemp is a French variety...

0.5% by weight and no other cannabinoids at an LOQ of 0.3%. Could be pure, can't tell with that low of content.

As always...been awhile. Thanks for sticking around or stumbling upon to those finding this in the future. We've been doing a lot of experimentation with CBG lately, helping to put everything we do into perspective, that's for sure.

Hemp is blowing up in the US. CBD demand is off the charts; the more is produced, the more is demanded. We are doing all we can to expand our type III feminized hemp seed production capacity while maintaining the quality we demand and QC others know us for.

We'll switch these facilities over to type IV seed production later this year for 2019 commercial distribution. Hemp farmers internationally will be rejoicing--we're consistently getting 100:1+ ratios for CBG to THC. That means 30% CBGa flowers can be distributed and/or grown worldwide.

socioecologist, I saw some info about a week ago that I can't seem to track back down, but it was from someone in the hemp business so I thought maybe you might recognize it. What I'm looking for is a reference for resin production per acre as a function of planting density.
What I saw was saying that growing an acre of "trees" with larger spacing netted substantially less than an acre planted at 12" intervals. I'm not sure if you're familiar with what I'm mentioning, but since its promoting denser planting you should become familiar if you're not already (lol sorry to make you out as greedy i'm just looking out for your best interests).

I've also been meaning to ask you what you grow at home for your THC bud stash. You mentioned earlier or in another thread that you like to smoke the high THC stuff and as professional as you are with your high cannabinoid/low THC cannabis I can only assume that your private stash is pretty spectacular. I've smoked smoke crazy good weed with big time drug dealers before, but not anybody big enough to grow acres and acres like you do.

That hangar you're growing is impressive as hell, is that warehouse set up for extra seed production for 2018 outdoor? I was looking at your catalog and it seems like some of the fem hemp seeds you sell are maybe bred indoors and not available until springtime.
