Cannabis & Hemp Virus Testing
Comprehensive virus screening with compliance documentation for commercial growers and nurseries
Why Test Cannabis & Hemp?
Cannabis and hemp crops are susceptible to numerous viral pathogens that can reduce yield, potency, and quality. Many viruses spread rapidly through vegetative propagation and show no visible symptoms until significant damage has occurred.
For commercial growers and nurseries, regular virus testing is essential for:
- Maintaining clean mother stock
- Meeting export and compliance requirements
- Preventing crop losses and quality degradation
- Protecting your reputation and customer relationships
