claimHarvesting industrial hemp at full bloom results in the maximum yield of bast fiber, cellulose, and overall biomass.
claimPotassium uptake in industrial hemp increases with plant maturity, with the highest uptake occurring during the development stage of bast fibers, which causes significant increases in cellulose and hemicellulose content.
