    Looking great! The HST and twist ties look like it’ll help spread out like crazy!

    I’ve gotten the message twice with the most recent being yesterday. I just keep deleting. I wish I could block them but it doesn’t give me the option 😔

    Cannabis Genetic ID Kits

    Cannabis genetic identification kits have advanced significantly, offering growers precise tools to optimize cultivation. Here are some of the latest developments:

    1. Early Plant Sex Identification:

    GENE-UP® PRO GENDER ID by bioMérieux: This kit enables early identification of cannabis plant sex, compatible with both fresh and dried samples. It streamlines cultivation by allowing growers to determine plant sex early, enhancing operational efficiency and profitability.

    FemINDICAtor® by Medicinal Genomics: Delivering 99% accurate results in less than 90 minutes, this qPCR-based assay allows growers to identify male plants just one week after germination, conserving resources and space.

    StudFinder™ by Agdia: Targeting the Y chromosome DNA in cannabis, this molecular test can identify male plants as early as seven days post-germination, aiding in efficient crop management.

    2. Genetic Trait Analysis:

    Dynamic DNA Laboratories’ Cannabis DNA Test: This test helps users understand how their body metabolizes and reacts to cannabis by analyzing 13 genetic traits, guiding personalized dosing and product selection.

    Genetic Cannabinoid Screening by Medicinal Genomics: These tools detect the presence of THCA and CBDA synthase genes in plants, assisting cultivators in predicting cannabinoid profiles and tailoring breeding programs accordingly.

    3. Commercial Testing Services:

    LeafWorks® Cannabis & Hemp DNA Sex Test: Offering 99% accuracy, this service identifies the gender of seedlings within seven days post-germination, enabling growers to remove unwanted male plants early and optimize yields.

    Farmer Freeman’s EZ-XY Plant DNA Sex Test Kits: These kits allow growers to test plant sex early, maximizing crop potential by culling males before they impact yields or pollinate females.

    ————————————-

    These advancements in cannabis genetic identification empower growers to make informed decisions, enhance crop quality, and improve overall efficiency in cultivation practices.

    What are your thoughts on using genetic ID testing kits? Have you used any? Have you had success? Let’s hear your story DGC!

    I’ve never used it myself. I’ve always done the paper towel in a ziploc. I know a lot of others that do both. They’ll float it for 24-36hrs, and then put it in the paper towel. Do what works best and is most convenient for your grow.

    A DEA judge has ordered the agency to respond to allegations that it opposes marijuana rescheduling and engaged in improper communications with anti-reform groups. Critics accuse the DEA of bias in witness selection and using invalid legal standards to block reform. Hearings on rescheduling, set for January 21, face delays and legal challenges from excluded pro-rescheduling groups, while Vice President Harris has criticized bureaucratic slowdowns

    It definitely seems like if you have the opportunity to run them, you should. I haven’t heard anything about it causing harm in any way. If you need tips on building your SCROG setup, check out Northern Scrogger, he’s the titan of tucking! Lol

    Yeah I’ve talked to @ZoomyCat about his setup. You’d think a lot more people would be using them, especially if it’s improving the areas of growth where you’d get larfy, undesirable buds.
