Latitude
Latitude is very important. Make sure your location fits within the latitude specified or you may get plants that flower one month after sprouting.

Seeding rates for Fiber
75-110 pounds per acre (85-148 killograms per hectare). Recommended planting between mid March through May. 13-18' feet tall males and females. Harvest at the end of July through early September depending upon the variety. Flowering begins usually in early August to early September depending upon the variety.

Seeding Rates for Grain
25-35 pounds per acre (28-40 kilograms per hectare). Plant between May though early June. Flowering begins in September and seeds are ready to harvest in October through November

Storage conditions
50°F, 10°C • 40% humidity
Storage >1 year: Freeze

Industrial hemp is defined as cannabis having 0.3% or less THC in the leaves and flowers. Please note these seeds are not certified and should be harvested for fiber prior to flowering to avoid levels of THC above 0.3%. If growing for grain/seeds, THC levels begin to drop once the flowers are fertilized and seed production commences.

Tips for Preventing Your Hemp Crops from Testing Above the Legal THC Limit
Note: This information is for educational purposes only and should not be considered legal advice. Hemp Traders is not a law firm. Laws and regulations regarding industrial hemp vary by state, and in some cases, by county. Additionally, interpretations and enforcement by federal, state, and county agricultural authorities may differ.
Federal and state laws require industrial hemp crops to be tested for THC levels before harvest. However, the definition of "harvest" can be subject to interpretation. Generally, "harvest" means collecting and removing crops from the field, rather than simply cutting them down. Understanding this distinction is crucial for compliance.
While our hemp seeds have been tested to ensure THC levels remain at or below the 0.3% legal threshold, they are not certified. These seeds are cultivated in diverse environments across China, leading to natural genetic variations that may cause some plants to exceed the THC limit at different growth stages. Below are strategies to help prevent your hemp crop from exceeding THC limits and steps to take if your crop does test above the threshold.

Planning

• Obtain written copies of the specific regulations governing hemp cultivation in your state and county.
• Develop a strong understanding of these regulations and establish a relationship with your local agricultural authorities.
• Keep in mind that regulatory enforcement can vary—some officials may be more cooperative in helping farmers comply, while others may strictly adhere to the law.
• Understand the cannabinoid development cycle: THC levels are lowest in young plants, peak as female flowers mature, and decrease as seeds develop and the plant ages. Proper planning of testing and harvesting schedules can help mitigate compliance risks.

Pre-Harvest Strategies

• For fiber production, hemp should be harvested just before flowering.
• Since hemp is a dioecious crop, male flowers typically appear about two weeks before female flowers. Because female flowers contain the highest cannabinoid concentrations, monitoring THC levels before flowering is essential.
• Conduct private THC tests at least four weeks before male flowering to identify any potential concerns.
• Official state-mandated tests should be strategically timed. If early testing reveals rising THC levels, consider conducting the official test sooner to prevent the crop from exceeding the legal threshold.
• Some regulations require harvesting within a specific timeframe after testing. However, factors such as weather, labor availability, and equipment readiness can cause delays. Regulatory enforcement on exact harvest dates varies, so understanding the rules and working within the system can help avoid unnecessary losses. A later harvest may not be noticed or present problems with the regulators.

What to Do If Your Crop Tests Above the THC Limit
If your hemp crop exceeds the allowable THC limit, consider the following steps:

• 
  Request a Retest – Because the plants are not certified, genetic variation can lead to discrepancies in THC levels across the field. If one test yields a high result, another test may provide a compliant reading.
• 
  Review Testing Parameters – Many tests report results within a margin of error. If the result is near the legal limit, the inclusion of test variability could bring the THC level within compliance.
• 
  Cut and Ret Hemp in the Field – If regulations do not explicitly state that testing must occur before cutting, you may be able to leave cut plants in the field for retting. THC levels decline rapidly during retting, potentially bringing the crop into compliance after a few days. Therefore it is possible to cut the hemp and let it ret prior to testing. Harvesting would technically happen only when the plants are removed from the field. Understanding regulatory definitions and maintaining open communication with regulators can be beneficial in this scenario.
• 
  Wait for Natural THC Reduction – If the law mandates testing before cutting, consider allowing the plants to mature further. Over time, THC levels typically decrease, though fiber quality may degrade. This approach is preferable to outright crop destruction.

Conclusion
Successfully navigating the complex and evolving regulations surrounding industrial hemp cultivation requires thorough planning, knowledge of local laws, and proactive engagement with regulators. By taking strategic steps, farmers can maximize yields while minimizing compliance risks.
