Dr. Allison Justice is the VP of Cultivation at OutCo and owner of The Hemp Mine and SC Botanicals. She has a Ph.D. in Plant Science from Clemson University and served on the California Industrial Hemp Advisory Board from 2016-2019. In this presentation, she outlines various topics related to hemp cultivation including plant biology, common pests and diseases, genetics, costs, and extraction methods. She discusses challenges from the previous growing season and aims to achieve consistent yield, potency, and freedom from diseases and pests through buying from trusted sources and using marker assisted breeding.

- 3. Outline Plant biology Disease/Pests Photoperiod and planting date Genetics Cost Forms Pros/Cons
- 4. Cannabis sativa Dioecious- male and female flowers occurring on separate plants. Hemp grown for CBD. Monecious- male and female flowers occurring on the same plant. Hemp grown for seed/fiber.
- 5. Cannabis sativa (CBD production) sensimilla (sin=without, semilla=seed) Female flower Photoperiod: Short-day plant Can be grown from seed or vegetative cutting
- 6. Secondary metabolites Terpenes: Compounds that attribute to smell Ex. Limonene, Linalool Cannabinoids: Resinous oils produced in trichomes of flowers. THC and THCA- Tetrahydrocannabinol- psychoactive CBD- Cannabidiol Over 100 cannabinoids Trichome
- 7. Problems from this previous season Some brought in on genetics brought in state, some naturally in our environment. Growing organically is DIFFICULT! No pesticides labeled for cannabis- only 25B products.

- 15. Root Girdling
- 16. # 1 pest- Spiderman
- 17. Planting date July 20th June 13th
- 19. Cutting vs. Seed Disease/pests Price per Homogeneity Stability Yield vs. Potency?
- 22. Aims: Consistent yield Consistent potency No diseases No pests No males BUY FROM TRUSTED SOURCES!
- 24. Sunrise Genetics improves and capitalizes on a plant's commercial value by utilizing genomic based biotechnology to guide plant improvement.
- 25. Marker Assisted Breeding Conventional plant selection Marker assisted plant selection

Editor's Notes
- We can continue this type of work on the plant populations that are being grown for the first time in new environments. The plants can then be fine tuned through further MAB selection.
