Episode 154: Is Seed Based Cultivation the Future for Cannabis? - with Dr. Matthew Indest

Описание: Is the cannabis industry finally ready to shift from clones to seeds? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Matthew Indest, a plant scientist, breeder, and cultivation strategist who has spent the last decade at the intersection of plant genetics, agronomy, and large-scale cannabis production.

We break down:
Why cannabis seeds have lagged behind traditional crops
The potential agronomic advantages of seed-grown plants
The challenges breeders face when trying to create stable, uniform lines
How data-driven cultivation can accelerate phenotype evaluation
Whether seed-based systems can truly compete with clone-based production
What the next generation of commercial cannabis genetics might look like

Dr. Indest has led breeding and cultivation programs across indoor, greenhouse, and outdoor facilities, and his work focuses on bringing scientific rigor into real-world commercial systems. This conversation gets into the actual science and the operational realities that will shape the future of cannabis cultivation.
