Hemp Invasion Risk Metadata

Sampling Dates

Start: 7/10/2020 End: 10/23/2020

Design and Methods

Fertilizer: [6-3-16].

• 50lb N/acre / 0.06 = 833.33 lbs fertilizer per acre.

• 833.33 / 4047 m2 = 0.206 lbs fertilizer per m2.

• 0.206 x 4 = 0.82 lbs of fertilizer per 4m2 plot.

• 0.82lb x 60 plots = ~50 lbs (49.2lbs).

Total 8 blocks [48 plots to be fertilizer]:

• 0.82lb x 48 plots = ~40 lbs (39.36lbs).
• 0.82lb = ~372g = ~360ml.
