Week 1 and Week 2:

• Hemp Baseline Soil Package: Analysis of soil samples to identify potential soil-related issues.
• Hemp Baseline Water Package: Examination of water sources for potential contaminants that may impact the crop.
• Visual Cultivation Plot Inspection: On-site inspection of the hemp cultivation plot to identify any visible issues or concerns.
• Pests, Diseases, Neighboring Plots: Assessment of potential pests and diseases and examination of neighboring plots' impact on the crop.
• Plant Count, Mapping, and Diagramming: Accurate counting, mapping, and diagramming of plants for precise tracking and planning.
• Gathering Initial Statistical Data: Initial data collection to establish baseline statistics for the crop.
• Determination of Statistically Significant Plants: Identification of significant plants for further analysis and monitoring.

Week 3:

• Baseline Analysis of Young Hemp Crop: Analysis of young hemp plants for potency and early detection of contamination from soil, water, or neighboring plots.

Week 4 - Week 11:

• Hemp Harvest Optimization Screening - Hemp Potency (Unofficial Compliance):
• Detailed analysis of the cannabinoid profile, including THC, THCa, CBD, CBDa and other cannabinoids, to determine peak potency.
• Monitoring THC content to ensure compliance with the 0.3% threshold.

Week 5:

• Contamination Screening:
• Identification of potential contamination issues, including pesticides, mycotoxins, and heavy metals.
• Allowing time for any detected pesticides to vacate the plant.

Week 12 (approximately):

• Hemp Pre-Harvest Compliance Full Panel (Total THC submitted to USDA / CDFA): Full compliance panel for USDA/CDFA submission, including full cannabinoid profile, pesticide analysis, mycotoxin screening, heavy metal testing, microbial analysis, water activity, foreign matter, and moisture content.
• Hemp Final Product Compliance Full Panel (Not submitted to USDA / CDFA): Full compliance panel for the final hemp product, including full cannabinoid profile, pesticide analysis, mycotoxin screening, heavy metal testing, microbial analysis, water activity, foreign matter, and moisture content.
