Hemp Storage in Kentucky
Why Underground Storage?
Storing Hemp properly is arguably as important as planting, harvesting or any other step in the cultivation process, because it can be just as crucial to farmers looking to turn a profit.
Hemp is susceptible to humidity, temperature, ultraviolet light and weather, an improperly
stored hemp crop can quickly go from good to bad under the untrained eye. When exposed to
the elements, some of the more common issues farmers and processors face with hemp
include mold problems or degradation in cannabinoid potency.
With an influx of farmers and businesses coming into the market- and new processors and manufacturers still learning how to work with hemp- the storage landscape has become even more important.
Key factors in successfully storing hemp are dim light, low humidity, and stable temperatures. A humidity-controlled environment is of critical importance.
