Event Overview:

In a recent survey, over 60% of cannabis cultivators struggle to find the right time to harvest. Attaining batch to batch flower consistency is also a major challenge. Join us in this informative webinar as we have a conversation with the CEO of Verda Bio, a cannabis and hemp cultivator. She will discuss their challenges with optimizing cannabis and hemp yield and how the Agilent HPLC dramatically changed their business operations and maximized revenue.

Key Learning Objectives/What attendees will learn:

  • Challenges faced by cannabis and hemp cultivators in determining the optimal time for harvest including costs and delays.
  • What is the best way to look inside plants and monitor cannabinoid production as growing conditions are optimized?
  • How can one deliver consistent cannabinoid profiles crop after crop?
  • How Verda Bio took control of their cannabinoid testing and transformed their operations


Who Should Attend:
Cannabis and hemp cultivators

Manipulating Cannabis Genetics: Pulling Levers to Increase  Phytochemical Composition
Cannabis genetics fundamentally dictate the plant's potential for chemical signatures, including cannabinoid and terpene profiles, and physical traits, such as yield. Cultivators use selective techniques, such as "stacking," to enhance specific compounds. Ultimately, successful cultivation involves balancing superior genetics with environmental "levers" to optimize gene expression and create targeted strains.
