Feral Hemp Patch with Dr. Dave West
Uploaded on Jan 4, 2009
Near Fremont, Nebraska last October, I visited a feral Cannabis Hemp patch with plant breeder Dave West, PhD. Ripe with bowing seed heads, the colors and aromas were enchanting. Dr. Dave points out that the states of Kansas and Nebraska have encouraged farmers to let feral hemp go to seed, as pheasants depend on the tall hemp seedheads sticking out of the snow to make it through the long winters.
Dr. Dave goes on to recount the history of the hemp industry in Nebraska, from the introduction of hemp farming to the Native Americans on reservations to the later introduction of Kentucky hemp. For much more, visit Dr. Dave’s Hemp Archives:
