Overview
Short 2–3 sentence lead paragraph describing the population, where it is grown, and why it matters.
1. Collection context
Who collected it, when, from how many households/fields, and any constraints (time of year, police risk, farmer permissions, etc.).
2. Local cultivation and use
How farmers grow and use this population: planting, field layout, harvest practices, use (charas / ganja / seed / fiber / ritual), and relevant local terminology.
3. Population profile
Narrative description of plant architecture, flowering time, resin and aroma range, and within-population variation (early vs late, tall vs short, etc.). Mention obvious hybrid influence if present.
4. Conservation assessment
Explain the conservation priority, main threats (enforcement, hybrid seeds, economic shift, climate), and whether cultivation is expanding, stable, shrinking, or nearly extinct.
5. Preservation & trials
Where seeds are stored, approximate quantities, any grow-outs or trials you have done (where, when, main observations), and where seed has been shared.
6. Notes & references
Any references, field report links, or internal notes that don’t fit elsewhere.
