A&L Canada Laboratories Inc. announces the addition of Hop Latent Viroid (HLVd) testing to its Cannabis Disease Diagnostics Services.

HLVd test results are available in 3 days.

“Hop Latent Viroid in cannabis is a very serious and costly issue causing stunting, malformation or chlorosis of leaves, brittle stems, and reduction in yields. Additionally, cuttings taken from symptomatic plants for clonal propagation is cause for reduced rooting success rate,” said Dr. Keri Wang, Microbiology Laboratories Director, Senior Scientist, A&L Canada Laboratories Inc.

HLVd is primarily spread through mechanical transmission, meaning it can be easily controlled when using best practices for cleanliness in your grow rooms.
