@SlicerDicer -- But you are overlooking the fact that there have been large hemp crops in the United States up through to the 1930's before Federal restrictions and eventual prohibition.
The fact that TEXAS can't grow hemp doesn't mean that other parts of the US can't.
As a former prohibition era grower, I can fully attest that growing with the heat and humidity in Texas, even indoors, is a lot harder than growing in Colorado with much milder temps and dry air (even indoors).

@SlicerDicer -- Following your news article, there are no details other than to suggest that four years ago, they were still working out the right genetics to match up with the climate.
Considering they could have pulled several hemp strains out of Africa and the Middle East, I can't imagine this continuing to be an issue today.
If there are still issues, it may be because everyone is using corn sowing machines thinking it will work with hemp seed.

@SlicerDicer --
I have done much research and experimentation with cannabis to know that it does not always react in the way you would expect.
Grafting experiments alone, showed me that the only way to make it viable was to create a special tool to "industrialize" an otherwise tedious process.
What I'm trying to express to you is that there isn't enough information provided to properly assess your claims and your citation was quite lacking too.
I did my own research. That's why I need more.
