Texas A&M AgriLife Planting Date Observations, Lubbock–Update<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I noted last month details on the planting date trial at Lubbock.\u00a0 The objective in this observation is to identify hemp fiber (primarily) and grain varieties that enter premature reproductive growth.\u00a0 This is detrimental.\u00a0 It is due to far northerly hemp lines (Canada, central and northern Europe) having a strong photoperiod response to longer nights in the southern U.S.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

These varieties will continue to be monitored weekly for development of reproductive growth.\u00a0 The next planting date occurred May 21 (three additional varieties; up to five more will be added in June).\u00a0 We will continue to August on 28-day intervals.\u00a0 Due to reports from others including Univ. of Arizona, we will also watch to determine with longer days\/shorter nights if any early flowering varieties convert to vegetative growth.\u00a0 This has occurred in some varieties, which then resume reproductive growth in late August\/September.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Within input from industry and university colleagues we have increasing interest in testing far South Texas plantings for fiber and grain starting in late August, especially in the October time frame.\u00a0 This is based in part on Oregon State University research conducted in California\u2019s Imperial Valley (20 miles north of Mexico border).<\/p>\n

Table 1.<\/strong>\u00a0 Initial results for the April 24 hemp fiber planting date, Lubbock, TX, including the date of initial observation of reproductive growth.\u00a0 Results are through May 28, 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Typical early reproductive growth observed is the male pollen sacs (Fig. 1).\u00a0 Female buds likely appear a couple weeks later.<\/p>\n

Premature Reproductive Growth\u2014How you can help!<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As noted last month, for grain and fiber varieties, please e-mail me or send digital pics\u2014anywhere in Texas at any planting date\u2014of growth and development.\u00a0 If they are flowering prematurely, we need to know.\u00a0 But equally, if they are growing normally, especially for at least 2 months after planting, we need to know that as well.<\/p>\n

Texas A&M AgriLife Variety Trials & Observations for 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Texas A&M AgriLife procured funding for a fiber variety trial at Lubbock, which was drilled May 11.\u00a0 A fiber and grain observation trial was planted in Williamson Co. on May 13.\u00a0 Pending possible funding, I will also plant a fiber variety trial near Chillicothe, TX.\u00a0 There are 13 to 15 varieties at each site.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I will plant one small cannabinoid hemp trial at Lubbock the second week of June.\u00a0 I would like to have planted this if we could a month sooner to potentially allow for longer-season production.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Common Field Symptoms, Often from Wet Weather<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Two symptoms I have observed in late May are likely due to wet weather.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

First, iron deficiency can occur in saturated soils that do not readily drain.\u00a0 Symptoms are a distinct \u201cinterveinal chlorosis\u201d where the young (iron does not move in the plant) leaf tissue is yellow, but the veins remain green (Fig. 3).\u00a0 Iron is also an issue for most Texas crops, including hemp, where soil pH is high (iron is less available).\u00a0 Often, with the return of dry weather plants grow out of the symptoms.\u00a0 As plants grow and the root volume expands, this also can fix iron issues.\u00a0 This may be of special concern for growers of cannabinoid hemp where one plant is valuable.\u00a0 For treatments, an iron chelate or ferrous sulfate (non-chelated form) can be sprayed on the plants.\u00a0 Soil application of iron is relatively inefficient and often not cost-effective.<\/p>\n

Second, a less defined condition is also possibly related to wet soils but may be more than just iron (Fig. 4).\u00a0 This young tissue can also become light in color if you have many cloudy days.\u00a0 Usually, the plants grow out of it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Fig. 4 <\/strong>.\u00a0 Common clustering of yellowing on youngest leaves.\u00a0 Can be due to iron (severe iron deficiency may bleach leaves completely yellow) or cloudy conditions.\u00a0 The rest of the foliage looks normal.\u00a0 Conditions normally improve with drying weather and sunshine.

Storm Damage on Hemp Plants<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The April 24 planting date observation near Lubbock received strong winds and hail on May 24.\u00a0 About 20% of plants that were >6\u201d tall received some damage (Fig. 5).\u00a0 Fortunately, hemp is a versatile plant with many growing points.\u00a0 For crops like sunflower or cotton, if the terminal (top) of the plant is destroyed or the stem is broken off, then the plant will not produce.\u00a0 When injury in hemp occurs, yes, the damage hurts the plant, but hemp has the ability to regrow from many different potential growing points\u00a0\u00a0 This regrowth is commonly from the leaf axil, the \u201ccrotch\u201d between the main stem and a leaf stem or branch.\u00a0 Short of a total wipeout that kills plants, I suspect even significant injury on hemp will not stop its potential to retain productivity for cannabinoids, fiber and grain.<\/p>\n

Cannabinoid plants are probably more susceptible as they are more exposed (5\u2019 X 5\u2019 planting pattern?).\u00a0 Fiber and grain plants are drilled and so the stand is dense offering protection to each other.\u00a0 In other crops we often say after hail damage the best thing you can to do is ignore it for a week.\u00a0 Only then assess the damage and a possible replanting\/salvage decision.\u00a0 The week gives the plant time to recover and initiate new growth.\u00a0 When you see this, it is reassuring.\u00a0 If you have questions about possible storm damage on your hemp, contact Calvin Trostle, and send pics of the typical damage and percent of plants affected<\/u>.<\/p>\n

Broken stem.\u00a0 If stem above the break does not die, it will be weak as it has to curve to resume upward growth.\u00a0 This plant may send out new growth (and harvested fiber stalk) from below the break. 2.Broken stem where the top is dead.\u00a0 But new growth seems likely at the top of the remaining stem from the cluster of leaves. 3. Another broken larger stem.\u00a0 The break is severe and though the top stem may not die, the vascular tissue is mostly separated and so it cannot sustain significant productive growth.\u00a0 Regrowth is likely below the break. 4. Top is completely broken off.\u00a0 Regrowth is expected to generate a new stem suitable for fiber harvest.<\/p>\n

AgriLife hosted a booth at this May 14-15 meeting in Austin.\u00a0 We received a lot of questions about our hemp program.\u00a0 This conference is unlike our traditional Extension meetings with clientele.\u00a0 We received numerous comments \u201cWe are glad Texas A&M AgriLife is here.\u201d\u00a0 Dr. Tom Isakeit spoke on behalf of AgriLife on Saturday.\u00a0 We had a sign-up sheet for this newsletter and the First Tuesday updates.\u00a0 We were encouraged by attending in Austin.\u00a0 It was an affirmation that Texas A&M AgriLife can and does play an important role as a partner in a Texas hemp industry for cannabinoids, fiber, and grain.\u00a0 Thank you to those who stopped to introduce yourselves and share your hemp needs.\u00a0 AgriLife will begin following up the requests for contact the week of June 8.<\/p>\n

Texas Department of Agriculture Hemp Reminders<\/strong><\/p>\n

TDA reminds all hemp producers that a Lot Report is required for all Lot Crop Permits issued no matter if the crop was grown or not.\u00a0 You are required to submit a Lot Report to TDA no later than the 30th day after a final sample is collected from a lot, or not later than 180 days from the lot permit issue date, whichever is earlier. The RHP-815 Lot Report form to report this information is can be found at https:\/\/www.texasagriculture.gov\/Portals\/0\/forms\/REG\/Hemp\/RHP_815_Hemp_Lot_Report.xlsx<\/a><\/p>\n
