We are studying hemp biomass nutrition, i.e. flowers, leaves, and seeds, in four ways:
Fresh, with seeds.
Fresh, without seeds.
Dried, with seeds.
Dried, without seeds.
We will yield detailed data regarding raw organic hemp nutrition, including the nutrition facts of the plant material alone.
We will also have detailed amino acid and fatty acid profiles for each of the study areas.
Test 1 Genetics:
Full Spectrum Seeds: Amaze Auto
Farmer and Genetics: Andy Simons
- This is a grain variety of hemp genetics
Genetics and biomass samples were provided and hand-selected by Andy Simons of Full Spectrum Seeds.
Andy hand-selected fresh and dried samples with and without seeds himself from this variety of genetics he has developed at his farm location in Flint, Michigan.
Simons used personal choice-selects of edible biomass material, which was meticulously separated and vacuum sealed, and sent in temperature controlled containers.
One pound of each of the four areas of testing material was provided to the food laboratory. Alongside those four one-pound quadrants were four 300g containers of the same material for the amino acid and fatty acid profile testing.
The fresh samples were confirmed to have arrived frozen and been stored at the lab safely by the staff Sept. 29, 2025.
The lab began the studies immediately following receipt of samples and said we should have most answers in about 45 days.
For the first study, we wanted to replicate and use hemp in a landrace situation.
This is a grain-type strain grown in an organic patch that somewhat competes with wild grasses. The hemp was grown to maturity bearing useful fruit and seeds.
This mimics a real-world cannabis encounter; as if humans came upon the material in the wild in any habitable area on every continent.
Testing the seed and plant material separate for nutritional content is important to establish how much nutrition and fats are in the plant material as well. Something that has never been done before in raw form.
This initial test will give the first-ever scientific data regarding the raw nutrition of hemp biomass, flowers, leaves, and seeds.
