Many gardeners grow hemp from seed. When you germinate hemp seed approximately 50% of the plants will be female and 50% male. However, you can purchase "feminized" seed, which are produced by triggering female plants to produce pollen sacs with only female genetics for self- or cross-pollination.

The germination percentage is one of the European standards that must be met in order to obtain certification that hemp seeds are suitable for cultivation. Standards indicate that seeds should have a germination rate of 70 to 80%.

Hemp seeds are the seeds of the hemp plant, Cannabis sativa. They're from the same species as cannabis but a different variety. They contain only trace amounts of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive compound in cannabis.

Hemp Seed Market Research, 2032. The global hemp seed market was valued at $5.1 billion in 2022, and is projected to reach $11.7 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 8.9% from 2023 to 2032.

The establishment of hemp as a regulated commodity also paves the way for U.S. hemp farmers to participate in other USDA farm programs. The U.S. Domestic Hemp Production Program establishes federal regulatory oversight of the production of hemp in the United States.

Federal policies, tightened by the Controlled Substances Act of 1970, virtually banned the production of industrial hemp during the war on drugs. According to an industry group, "the 1970 Act abolished the taxation approach [of the 1937 Marijuana Tax Act] and effectively made all cannabis cultivation illegal".

- Temperature and humidity are probably the key factors in the germination of weed seeds. They need warmth and a high humidity to be able to come out of their shell. Ensure a temperature of at least 20 degrees. The humidity must also be high.

Every plant begins with a seed. Cannabis seeds should be germinated just like any other seed. They can take anywhere between 3-10 days to germinate, although it can happen in as few as 24 hours or as long as 2 weeks.

Generally, hemp seeds can take anywhere from 70 to 140 days to reach maturity, with some varieties taking longer than others. In most cases, hemp is ready to harvest within 90 to 120 days after planting. However, the time may vary depending on the specific strain, cultivation practices, and climate conditions.

In a small jar put some water and soak the seed overnight, water down your soil before planting, then poke a small hole (I use a nail) about 1/2 inch into the soil, now take some tweezers and drop that seed in that hole.
