Essential Oil Seedlings prides itself in this area, as we are always on the hunt for better quality, yield, and traits.
This, in return, translates to the end grower getting better return on their costly investment and an essential oil that is of an easily saleable quality.
We scour the world for varieties and types of plants that are economically viable to grow in our various regions and then go through the rigorous process of having to germinate/clone them, grow them out, distill their oils from their leaves and then finally analyse their essential oils produced, by means of a Gas Chromatography Flame Ionisation Detector and compare these results to the various standards and regulations published for the various industries.
Only once all these criteria are met and proved to be acceptable, then we will start field trials and gather all the numbers on these.
There are times when we are approached by clients with difficult to grow seeds or plant material where we will attempt to germinate or strike these for the clients using various methods of growing.
