Back to Our Roots The Importance Of Organic Farming

Bryant Jones, Plant Scientist, Herbalist in University Of Minnesota. Cannabis breeder and plant scientist specializing in Horticultural Production doing studies at the University of Minnesota. A life long plant enthusiast trained in traditional North American, Lakota Sioux and Ayurvedic herbal medicine. Herbal medicine utilizes the secondary metabolisms of plants to foster good health. These constituents often amount to terpenes, tannins and specialized secretions, which are produced in most plants as part of a natural process to protect growth in midst of adverse conditions (weather, pests) or promote the next phase of growth (seeding, pollination). Understanding what internal and external mechanisms that drive these processes from seed to flower, is paramount in successful horticultural production.

With growing concern over commercial pesticides killing wildlife not to
mention their toxicity to us, many consumers are searching for 'organic'
labels. Cannabis farmers, as well, often solicit techniques that harmonize
with the larger picture of sustainable agriculture, where soil and crops
remain healthy beyond annual cultivation cycles, and what is added to the
earth does not taint it. This panel discusses the increasing importance of
organic cannabis farming.
