The authors present detailed information on the weight difference between the outer and inner cotyledon of seedlings, as well as other typical features, which may help to identify very young hemp seedlings. The next paper in this issue by Small, Marcus, Butler, and McElroy describes an apparent increase in biomass and seed productivity in hemp caused by branch proliferation following European corn borer (ECB) damage. This study is very interesting, not in the least because it allows to test the extent of ECB damage affected by several plant characteristics. The article by Chen, Sun, Negelescu, Wu, and Henderson compares the physical properties of hemp-based non-woven composites to those of several other plant-fibre based non-wovens. The resistance of nonwovens to termite attack is also tested.

Lithographs from books on botany and medicinal plants dating from over the last 500 years illustrate the beauty of the hemp plant. The war against marihuana was a source of interesting collectible material, such as movie posters. The marijuana counterculture of the 1960s and 1970s also yielded a wealth of great posters and other works of art. However, Cannabis artwork does not need to be old to be valuable. The Hemp Industry Association's fundraising poster series created by Phish artist Jim Pollock have each been instant collectibles. Cannabis art isn't limited to a paper or hemp-canvas medium, either. Beautiful jewelry, belt buckles, plates, clothing, and wood carvings adorned with beautiful renditions of the Cannabis plant can be found.","PeriodicalId":319023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Hemp","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131738280","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hemp fiber has been increasingly used for making nonwoven composites that are ideal for the production of biobased auto interior parts. This paper studies the physical properties of a hemp/polypropylene composite and compares these properties with those of a kenaf/polypropylene composite, a ramie/polypropylene composite, and a bagasse/polypropylene composite. The hemp/polypropylene nonwoven was produced by carding and needle-punching techniques and was thermo-bonded to form a hemp composite. Tensile and bending properties were measured using an Instron tensile tester. Dynamic mechanical properties were tested using a DMS instrument. The thermal property was analyzed using a TG instrument. A preliminary study on the ability of the hemp fiber composite to resist termite attack was also conducted. In comparison, the hemp composite featured a better thermal property; the kenaf composite had better mechanical properties; the ramie composite indicated a better acoustical property; and the bagasse composite exhibited better wet properties. Neither hemp nor bagasse fiber composite was capable of resisting termite attack.","PeriodicalId":319023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Hemp","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131964081","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most are manufactured by small companies; notable exceptions are The Body Shop and Dr. Bronners. The healthy essential fatty acids and tocopherols in hemp are the main reason for using hemp seed oil. Most consumers of hemp products are aware of this fact and are usually looking for a totally natural product, possibly even organically grown and vegan. The trend in the industry is to have organically grown hemp, packaged simply, at times a bit too basic to catch a larger market. Many new producers have sprung up in the last five years, and it would be fair to estimate the annual turnover in hemp skin-care products to be somewhere in the hundred of millions of dollars annually. This is expected to increase, with the style of packaging being a factor in the future growth.","PeriodicalId":319023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Hemp","volume":"50 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132678583","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the dry seeds, the “outer cotyledon” (remote from the radicle) is about 50% heavier than the “inner cotyledon” (adjacent to the radicle). Two days after germination, the difference in fresh weight has been reduced considerably, but thereafter the outer cotyledon remains slightly more than 20% heavier than the inner. In about one in four seedlings, the tip of the outer (normally the larger) cotyledon is persistently covered by remnants of the seed coat, including a characteristic dark area which enclosed the tips of the cotyledons in the seed. In about one in ten seedlings, the achene shell (pericarp) remains up to several days on the tip of the outer cotyledon. These features serve to confirm the identity of very young seedlings of C. sativa, for which there has not previously been a reliable means of identification. Seeds from several sources did not differ significantly from each other with respect to weight ratio of the cotyledons, nor were there significant differences in cotyledon ratio found when seedlings were grown in darkness, a 16-hour light regime, and in continuous light. Microscopic connections of unknown significance were observed between the adpressed adaxial surfaces of the cotyledons in the seed.","PeriodicalId":319023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Hemp","volume":"81 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120886069","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During the course of a study of hemp germplasm and cultivar accessions, the ECB attacked the vertical stem leader of hundreds of plants. At the site of invasion the main stem was typically destroyed, and the plant became strongly branched. Although the damaged plants were an average 9% shorter, mean shoot weight was 20% heavier. Seed productivity was also greater, based on a visual scale. The practical significance of such an “overcompensation” response to insect damage, with damaged plants growing more robustly and productively than their undamaged counterparts, is controversial. Certainly, some aspects of productivity, such as fibre quality, are detrimentally affected by the ECB. The insect showed a preference for larger plants, but was indifferent to the level of tetrahydrocannabinol, the chief intoxicant of C. sativa.","PeriodicalId":319023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Hemp","volume":"93 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115420878","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
