Variety traits

Vegetation period — Cannabis sativa

Cannabis sativa L.

The period from emergence to harvest maturity, determining a variety's suitability for a region and its productivity.

In the reference 52 varieties crop Hemp, where this is mentioned in the description.

The vegetation period of hemp is measured in days and depends on the plant's ecotype. The northern ecotype is characterized by a short period (60–70 days), the Central Russian ecotype by a medium period (110–115 days), and the southern ecotype by a long period (130–160 days or more), with East Asian forms potentially exceeding 145 days.

The duration of the period directly influences biometric indicators and yield: late-maturing varieties reach a height of 3.5–6 meters and produce more fiber. The vegetation period dictates the timing of sowing, fertilization, and harvesting, which is critical for the dual-purpose use of the crop for both seed and fiber production.
