We need to open source how to do that. Fuck them

I wonder if this forum could crowd source a future4200 genetics lab 
making hemp appealing for actual usage, and not just a marketing fad

Having an indoor grow I believe will give you a big advantage in being able to move what you produce. Iām already hearing the demand for indoor hemp flower grown properly in my circle.
Outdoor growers I believe will be having a harder time to move product. For outdoor growers if they can grow hemp to be used in other industries(food,construction etc.)and have cannabinoids be a by product it seems like that will be a more realistic business model.

How would you convert to d9? I know how to isomerize to d8

Any you are referring to specifically?

Fast.
CBD first turns into D9 before it becomes D8 when using the right catalysts- if you can dial in your short path you can have it distilled before it fully converts- separating the two via chromatography will likely be a bit difficult but def possible.

No, nothing specifically. I made another post somewhere comparing structurally analogous sugars as an example. Glucose is totally necessary for brain function, yet, fructose is generally terrible for us in high concentrations.
The same could potentially be true for cannabinoid isomers, Iām inclined to think especially ones not found in the plant naturally, or ones normally found in tiny amounts.

How much does dude charge for the hemp terps?
Usually under $10 a ml by the oz and under $5 a ml when you buy a liter.

Iām currently going to school for this, might start a breeding program implementing these techniques.

I think his steam method might be different then how everyone else is doing it and might really be on to something.
I talk to him quite often and quite often about how he harvests the terpenes. I think he told me his āmintā extractor was under $200. Itās a large mint extractor. Itās beem shown on this forum in the past. Rumor has it that it took over 500lbs of fresh hemp to make the liter of terpenes I bought.

CBD to d9 is a tough reaction to runā¦you will definitely need a chemist (inorganic or organic chemist) that has gone to grad school to run this for you. Iāve seen anywhere from 50% to 72% conversion with the rest being d8 and I reacted CBD.
