Summary:
- A new study has found that cannabis pollen can travel long distances on the wind, raising concerns about cross-pollination between hemp and marijuana crops.
- The study used computer models to simulate the dispersal of cannabis pollen, showing that it can travel up to 10 miles from its origin, potentially affecting crops in surrounding areas.
- This finding highlights the need for careful regulation and monitoring of cannabis cultivation to prevent unintended cross-pollination, which could impact the quality and potency of hemp and marijuana products.
