Cannabis genetics sit in private collections and seed companies with uneven records and no long-term public access. Commercial lines show thousands of names but limited genetic range, leaving cannabis farming exposed to disease, pests, and climate shifts.
Led by Dr. Max Jones at the University of Guelph, NFCF is building a public cannabis genebank in Canada to collect, preserve, and document varied genetics. The collection supports breeding work for traits like disease response and day-neutral flowering.
Cannabis farmers and retailers rely on lab numbers for THC, CBD, microbials, and terpenes, but methods differ by lab. Inflated potency claims and unclear microbial or terpene context weaken trust, complicate compliance work, and confuse consumers at sale.
NFCF's Trusted Labs Partnership runs inter-lab proficiency trials on THC, CBD, terpenes, and microbials. Health Canada licenced labs compare methods and results, then publish shared benchmarks and plain-language guidance for cannabis farmers and retailers.
