Australia Regulations for Growing CBD Clones & Seeds
In Australia, hemp is not categorized as an agricultural commodity. Rather, the Australian government classifies the plant as cannabis, which means its subject to strict regulations and monitoring under the Drugs, Poisons and Controlled Substances Act 1981. Extracts from hemp leaves and flowers are legally classified as narcotic substances. Therefore, a prescription is required to purchase medicinal CBD products.
Hemp farmers in Australia are legally allowed to grow CBD seeds and clones so long as they have low levels of THC. However, the amount of THC that’s legally allowed varies among the different states and territories.
In New South Wales, South Australia, and Queensland, THC levels cannot exceed 1%. In Tasmania, Victoria, and Western Australia, the laws are much stricter and THC concentrations cannot exceed 0.35%.
If you are endeavoring to grow high CBD seeds or clones in Australia, you must apply for a state license. Furthermore, local authorities must approve of the intended location of your hemp farm and you may also be subject to ongoing inspections. For this reason, it may not be a bad idea to seek legal counsel when getting started in order to make sure that your operation is fully compliant.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”3054″ img_size=”300×400″ alignment=”center” css_animation=”fadeInRight” el_class=”hide-mobile”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”3053″ img_size=”300×400″ alignment=”center” css_animation=”fadeInLeft”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]
Regions of Australia where CBD is Grown
CBD seed is planted by farmers across the entire nation of Australia and can be grown in every state. However, the majority of hemp production transpires in Tasmania, accounting for approximately 66% of the nationwide total. This is because the climate in Tasmania is much more conducive to hemp production, and is generally cool and mild with slight humidity.
As a crop, hemp grows best in a mild, warm climate. In Australia, it is usually grown in the summer and harvested in late summer or early fall. However, the particulars may vary depending on the location of your hemp farm.
