Certify Your Cannabis and Hemp Clone Health with LeafWorks' Hop Latent Viroid-Free Clone Certification

Ensure the quality of your mothers and their clones with our Hop Latent Viroid-Free Clone Certification. Hop latent viroid poses a tremendous risk to cannabis cultivation and can lead to stunted growth, reduced yields and compromised plant health. Protect your crops and company's reputation by obtaining Hop Latent Viroid-Free Clone Certification.

Why Hop Latent Viroid Testing is Important

Hop latent viroid is a highly contagious and damaging pathogen that infects cannabis and hemp plants. HLVd can wreak havoc on current and future cannabis harvests in both flower and secondary metabolite production, thereby compromising their quality and profitability. By certifying that your incoming clones are HLVd-free before being planted, you mitigate the risk of introducing this harmful pathogen into your cultivation space. Safeguard your investment and validate your HLVd-free crop quality with LeafWorks.

How It Works

Submitting your seed sample for HLVd testing is simple. Once our team receives your samples, we then perform our highly sensitive and accurate RT-qPCR DNA assay -- the LeafWorks® Hop Latent Viroid ID Test -- in order to detect the presence of the HLVd genome. If the test results are negative, we provide certification for the entire clone lot. We can make a claim about the entire lot based on epidemiological sampling and statistical analysis. This certification also includes a time stamp, therefore giving you peace of mind and assurance of quality.

How We Do This

We can certify clone lots as HLVd-free due to the application of a statistical framework that leverages the principles of epidemiological testing designed to estimate disease prevalence and/or freedom from disease.

Why Certify Your Stock

Certifying your cannabis and hemp seeds as HLVd-free provides numerous benefits for clone sellers and buyers alike. For clone sellers, certification provides a competitive advantage in the hemp and cannabis business vertical that demonstrates commitment to quality and reliability. For clone buyers, meanwhile, certification offers peace of mind in knowing that they are purchasing plants free from this destructive pathogen. Buyers can therefore be rest assured that their investment and cultivation cycle is off to a good start.

Details

Hop Latent Viroid is a highly problematic and pervasive plant pathogen found in cannabis that is highly contagious and can reduce yields by up to 30%. As a result of unknowingly cutting from sick mother plants or growing in contaminated environments, ruined harvests -- as well as litigation from sick inventory sales - has become increasingly problematic. Anyone and everyone that has harvested, sold, or bought infected stock should take extra precautions to ensure plant health. Third-party testing can therefore be highly valuable in certifying the health of your mothers and clones.

With LeafWorks’ exclusive Hop Latent Viroid-Free Clone Certification, you can efficiently and cost-effectively certify your mothers and clone lots as free of HLVd. All lots that pass our test come with a Certificate of Analysis and LeafWorks HLVd-Free Seal to demonstrate your customers that the clones have been verified by a trusted third party source. Please note that our HLVd-Free Clone Certification is done on a per cultivar, per clone lot basis.

Features

LeafWorks’ HLVd-Free Clone Certification is a DNA testing service that analyzes and tests for the presence of Hop Latent Viroid in a subsample of clones and their mothers by using a rigorous epidemiological-based statistical framework to make infection claims about an entire lot.

A Pass/Fail Certificate of Analysis is provided with every lot submission.
