Hydroponic Cultivation of Medicinal Plants-Plant Organs and Hydroponic Systems: Techniques and Trends

Hallam R. R. Atherton et al.

Summary: Medicinal plants are an important resource for healthcare and millions of people rely on them for treatment. However, overharvesting is threatening many medicinal species. Hydroponic cultivation of medicinal plants may offer a sustainable solution, with research showing increased levels of medicinal compounds compared to traditional cultivation methods. This article explores the different hydroponic systems available and their effectiveness for cultivating specific plant organs, highlighting the potential value of these techniques.

Amino Acid Supplementation as a Biostimulant in Medical Cannabis (Cannabis sativa L.) Plant Nutrition

Matej Malik et al.

Summary: There is increasing evidence that nutrients and biostimulants play a role in plant secondary metabolism. This study examined the effects of amino acid-based supplements on the cannabinoid and terpene profiles of medical cannabis plants. The results showed that amino acid biostimulation influenced ion levels in plant tissues and had different effects on nutrient cycles.

Effect of Potassium (K) Supply on Cannabinoids, Terpenoids and Plant Function in Medical Cannabis

Avia Saloner et al.

Summary: This study found that potassium supply has a significant impact on the growth, function, and secondary metabolism of cannabis plants. Low potassium supply resulted in impaired plant development and function, while high potassium supply decreased the production of cannabinoids and terpenoids. An application level of 60 mg/L potassium is suggested to maintain high function, yield, and secondary metabolism.

Mechanisms of Cannabidiol (CBD) in Cancer Treatment: A Review

Camren G. Heider et al.

Summary: This review examines recent studies on the efficacy and mechanisms of CBD as a cancer treatment. Findings suggest that CBD can relieve cancer pain and alleviate chemotherapy side effects, mainly through its interaction with the endocannabinoid system. Further research on the anticancer effects of CBD is needed.

Response of medical cannabis (Cannabis sativa L.) genotypes to P supply under long photoperiod: Functional phenotyping and the ionome

Sivan Shiponi et al.

Summary: Phosphorus plays a crucial role in the vegetative growth phase of medicinal cannabis, with optimal levels enhancing plant physiological traits such as biomass production, photosynthesis rate, and translocation of nutrients. Excess or deficient phosphorus can impact mineral nutrient uptake and translocation in cannabis plants.

Investigation of the uptake of molybdenum by plants from Argentinean groundwater

Kathryn Lawson-Wood et al.

Summary: Some regions in Argentina have high concentrations of molybdenum, arsenic and vanadium in their groundwater, which can affect the uptake of molybdenum by plants. The study found that using groundwater from La Pampa for growing cress could result in lower molybdenum levels in the plants compared to using synthetic solutions.

Nitrogen supply affects cannabinoid and terpenoid profile in medical cannabis (Cannabis sativa L.)

Avia Saloner et al.

Summary: Nitrogen supply affects cannabinoid and terpenoid metabolism, with the optimal N level for both yield quantity and relatively high secondary metabolites content being 160 mg L-1. High N supply has adverse effects on the production of secondary compounds in cannabis, while promoting plant growth and biomass production.

The Highs and Lows of P Supply in Medical Cannabis: Effects on Cannabinoids, the Ionome, and Morpho-Physiology

Sivan Shiponi et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that phosphorous significantly impacts the biosynthesis of cannabinoids, ionome, and plant functional physiology in medical drug-type cannabis plants. Phosphorous concentrations below 15 mg L-1 were insufficient for optimal plant function, while 30-90 mg L-1 P was within the optimal range for plant development and function.
