its possible, but not feasible. if that makes sense.

in other words, the scientific community knows(well not completely) most of the biochemical pathways and gene sequences needed for transcription into the production of thc trichomes. the only problem is... genetic engineering. after you know the genes you need, you cant necessarily isolate them from a plant. you would actually have to artificially construct DNA, find a totipotent and undifferentiated cell without a nucleus and stick your artificial strand in there. the same concept is being done with stem cells.
you can google it.

what i found interesting was that geneticist were isolating gene sequences responsible for epidermal and hair cell production in sheep. what they are trying to accomplish is growing "super wool" without the sheep. imagine just a strip of sheep skin in a petri dish that grows wool constantly.

insane.
now imagine growing some sort of massive trichome attached to the glandular epidermal layer of cannabis(the actual part wher thc is produced, the trichome is actually just for storage).

theoretically you wouldnt need light or electricity. just a petri dish with the right proteins carbs and other organic components. man that would be sweet. the precursor to the clone wars. roflmao.
