Croptober season is upon us!
🎃What is it, and where did the name originate from?
🌱Croptober is a popular term heard frequently in the cannabis industry. Croptober includes the harvesting of marijuana, but also the harvesting of hemp, and takes place in October.
🌱During this season, hemp cultivators harvest their hemp plants for various purposes such as extracting hemp-derived cannabidiol, making hemp-based products like fiber, or collecting seeds for future crops.
🌱The timing of the harvest is also extremely important, because it can impact the cannabinoid profile, as well as the entire quality of the hemp plant.
🎃What does the process look like?
🌱Aside from harvesting the plants, next steps include drying, curing, and processing of the hemp plants to prepare them for further use. By following these post-harvest steps, the hemp crop can be preserved appropriately, and therefore, ready for extraction or other applications.
🌱Croptober can be a lot of work for hemp farmers, but also a rather exciting time because the season represents the months of hard work cultivating. This season plays a very important role in the overall supply chain of the hemp industry, because the success of the harvest will have an impact on the end result, which is the hemp related products being sold in the market. ...

We have been super pleased with JBT (Jonestown Bank & Trust). They have their own Cannabis Dept dedicated to helping you with your banking needs. As far as finding insurance, that is a tough one, however we found Next Insurance. Online payment processing was another hurdle, however we had no issues using Square. A huge tip if your just starting up your hemp business is to not include the word hemp or anything related to cannabis in your business name.

Lack of training for law enforcement has definitely cost our business plenty of $$$ over the last few years. We Had the company vehicle returned twice from law enforcement via court orders and just received another court order to have 13lbs returned from from law enforcement that wastaken 2 years ago. Between the legal fees and the loss of product. Lack of updated law enforcement training has cost us too much.
Thank YOU. Love the motion we’re seeing in the Hemp Arena! We’re a nonprofit and have a piece of land in Lake Ariel, PA to someday build a hemp home/office. May I have a contact with PA Hemp Industry Council? Thank you❣️ www.hearts-of-mercy.org 908-783-0269
