here is a much better study in that the explanations are understandable

What would be the benefit of making space and culturing autos?

Here's a culture kit https://phytotechlab.com/hemp-multiplication-kit.html

That gives you the majority and tells you everything else you need with step by step instructions.

I've seen micropropigation of cannabis on a commercial scale put to work. These were photoperiod variety.

One thing we learned is that the plants grow as if they were revegged. (Monster cropping style. Think tons of new nodes and branch sites appearing. )

You end up with a plant who will make a wonderful mum, but I think the structure it throws off when it start vegging is less ideal for autos. You wouldn't wanna be stripping too much of that new growth off, but if you don't, you may end up with a bit of a tangled mess.

A problem that might need to be worked out for this to be a success I think.

That makes sense. The new froth did look a little wonky for sure

But generally I have found that even from seed a lot of autos start out with wonky lookin,almost revegged look now that you say that, But then grow out of it after the first couple nodes

That’s why I am definitely gonna be doing this

Trying to picture tissue culture in the commercial grow and honestly guys, having a tough time seeing it. The average wage of growers in Colorado is like $13/hour. Head Growers aren't making much more. Just trying to picture the guy in charge of this, when I've seen temps hock loogies into our growing medium before while mixing pots...

Also it still has to beat the clone time. I can take hundreds of clones in a few hours and be sitting with propagated clones in 2 weeks.

I definitely have thought about this and it would DEFINITELY require training and probably a paid professional type lab person. I think it would be more like in the distillate lab where it would happen and those dudes who run them labs make way more than the grow folks
