Triploid Hemp, another Game-Changer from Oregon CBD
b'
Seth Crawford, co-founder of Oregon CBD, is Lancaster Farming\\u2019s guest on this week\\u2019s Industrial Hemp Podcast.
The hemp seed production and breeding company has just made triploid hemp commercially available.
In plant breeding, triploids are not new. It\\u2019s a technique that lets breeders create seedless varieties of plants that cannot be pollinated \\u2014 think seedless watermelons and seedless grapes.
But in hemp, a seedless variety that cannot be pollinated is a game-changer. The implications for the industry are vast, according to Crawford.
\\u201cBeing able to have grain production and have cannabinoid production and have fiber production requires that you don\\u2019t have cross-pollination or contamination,\\u201d he said. \\u201cAnd there wasn\\u2019t really a way of ensuring that until we were able to put these triploids out. So now you can truly have multiple use crops and be able to plant them really close to each other without having any negative impact.\\u201d
