Imbibition of water through the membrane of the seed shell is the first step in the germination process for cannabis. Dry cannabis seeds are floating, a convenient way to verify a successful imbibition is to put them in water until they sink, which takes about six hours when submerged in an infuser, and about 12 hours when they are floating on ...
The spores of rust fungi may be dispersed by wind, water or insect vectors. [13] When a spore encounters a susceptible plant, it can germinate and infect plant tissues. A rust spores typically germinates on a plant surface, growing a short hypha called a germ tube. This germ tube may locate a stoma by a touch responsive process known as ...
e. Weed control is a type of pest control, which attempts to stop or reduce growth of weeds, especially noxious weeds, with the aim of reducing their competition with desired flora and fauna including domesticated plants and livestock, and in natural settings preventing non native species competing with native species.
Autoflowering cannabis or day neutral cannabis varieties automatically switch from vegetative growth to the flowering stage based on age, as opposed to the ratio of light to dark hours required with photoperiod dependent/short-day strains. Many autoflowering varieties are ready to harvest in less than 10 weeks from seed.
Feral cannabis is an exceptionally hardy weed, widely dispersing its seeds which can lie dormant for 7–10 years before sprouting again. [4] In Minnesota, hemp is classified among the 11 "noxious prohibited weeds" along with several species of thistle, and noted for damaging farmers' plowing equipment.
Rust converters are chemical solutions or primers that can be applied directly to an iron or iron alloy surface to convert iron oxides into a protective chemical barrier. These compounds interact with iron oxides, especially iron(III) oxide , converting them into an adherent black layer ( black oxide ) that is more resistant to moisture and ...
Cannabis indica is an annual plant species in the family Cannabaceae [1] indigenous to the Hindu Kush mountains of Southern Asia. [2] The plant produces large amounts of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) [ 3 ] [ better source needed ] and tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV), with total cannabinoid levels being as high as 53.7% [ scientific citation needed ] .
The free water helps loosen spores adhered to a leaf's surface and promotes spore germination. [ 9 ] At a microclimate scale, lower trees hidden below the canopy exist in a lower temperature and moister environment, and as a result, these young trees are more susceptible to C. ribicola than the older, taller trees that create the canopy, which ...
