Our first step after getting our hemp farming license was a soil test in February. We then talked to an agronomist about how to amend our soil so it is perfect conditions for growing hemp.
In April, we got our hemp genetics and started growing them in a greenhouse in May. By the beginning of June they were ready to be planted in rows on our farm.
We got family and friends to help plant our hemp seedlings in the soil. We first laid the plastic mulch, and drip irrigation, and used a water wheel transplanter to plant the seedlings. It took about 3 full days to plant 10 acres in the field.
We then watered and fertilized the growing plants over the next few months. Central Oregon is a great place to grow hemp, and these plants grew really fast. By August, the plants started transitioning to the flowering stage where they started producing oil. The flowers became really pretty, and there were even some pink flowers. I love the smell of hemp in the summer!

At the beginning of October, we began cutting the plants and hanging them in the barn to dry. The whole harvest process took about 2 solid weeks. Our families pitched in, and worked hard long days. . It was a lot of work. We were able to get 9000 hemp plants in our barn, and it took about 3 weeks to dry them out. The rest of our plants we dried in the field, which works fine in the Central Oregon climate.
After all of our plants were dry, we used a combine to strip the stalks and stems from the plant so we had nice homogenized biomass in large sacks. When all of our sacks were full, we took them to the CBD extractor for processing.
It took them about 2 weeks to process all of our biomass to CBD distillate and isolate, and now we have about 150kg of full-spectrum distillate to make our products.
The entire hemp farming process was very rewarding and challenging for everyone. We grew a lot, and had fun, and made some money!
This video will teach you how to farm hemp and the best hemp farming practices. Hemp is also known as cannabis and is grown outdoors (sometimes indoors) in a dry climate. It is becoming a larger part of agriculture.
In our farm vlog, we will teach how to grow cannabis and proper hemp cultivation including hemp harvest for CBD at the end of the season. Good luck on your hemp grow!
