CRC Member Café: Optimal Harvest Time for Cannabis Cultivation - Growth Analysis for Extraction

In this CRC meeting, Michael Alden, a PhD student at Clemson University, presents his research on growth analysis techniques in cannabis cultivation. He discusses the importance of identifying the optimal harvest time for cannabis plants, particularly when growing for extraction purposes. Michael covers various growth analysis methods, including non-destructive measurements like plant dimensions and destructive methods like measuring dry weight. He also explores the relationship between flower buds and cannabinoid yields, highlighting key factors such as inflorescence mass, trichome color, and cannabinoid percentages (CBD and THC). Throughout the presentation, Michael emphasizes a mathematical approach to determining harvest time based on inflorescence dry weight and cannabinoid content, avoiding subjective methods like trichome color analysis. He also compares different pinching strategies and their effects on plant growth and cannabinoid yield, ultimately providing valuable insights for cannabis growers looking to optimize their harvest for extraction. Watch the full presentation to dive into the details of this experiment and learn how to fine-tune your cultivation process for maximum yield and quality.
