Current Exhibition
Seed 2 Soul
For over 80 years, cannabis cultivation has existed in the shadows, shaped by prohibition and resistance. Seed 2 Soul explores how this history has influenced the plant’s genetics, chemistry, and cultural significance. Through immersive displays, this exhibition reveals the intricate relationship between cannabis, the earth, and the human body.
Genetics
Prohibition reshaped cannabis genetics, favoring high-THC strains while reducing biodiversity. Learn how breeders adapted, why the indica vs. sativa debate is outdated, and how today’s cultivators are restoring lost landrace varieties.
Propagation
From seed germination to cloning and tissue culture, discover the methods used to preserve cannabis cultivars. See how cultivators create genetically identical plants and why tissue culture is revolutionizing the industry.
Roots
Turn the world upside down and explore the underground network of cannabis roots. Soil scientist Dr. James White reveals how mycorrhizal fungi enhance plant communication, growth, and nutrient absorption.
Soil
Beneath our feet lies a world more complex than we ever imagined. This exhibit dives into the rhizophagy cycle, where plants “farm” microbes for survival, and examines the impact of chemical farming on cannabis cultivation.
Light
Indoor vs. outdoor—what difference does it make? Learn how growers manipulate light spectrums to influence growth, potency, and cannabinoid production, and explore the environmental impact of indoor cultivation.
Vegetative Growth
What does it take to raise a healthy cannabis plant? This exhibit explores the ideal conditions for growth, from temperature and humidity to water consumption—revealing why cannabis is one of the most water-intensive crops.
Sonification
Plants make music. Using conductivity sensors, this interactive display translates plant activity into sound, letting you hear the subtle changes in a cannabis plant’s internal processes in real time.
Flowering
The final stage before harvest—this exhibit explores trichomes, the chemical factories of cannabis. See how these tiny structures produce cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids that give cannabis its potency and aroma.
Extraction
Edibles, concentrates, vapes—how does raw cannabis become these products? Explore the science behind extraction, from solvent-based methods to full-spectrum concentrates, and learn how different techniques impact the final product.
Evolution of Vapes
Vaping has come a long way. Learn about the controversies, safety improvements, and technology behind modern cannabis vaporizers, and how they differ from traditional e-cigarettes.
The Endocannabinoid System
Did you know the human body is designed to interact with cannabis? The ECS regulates mood, pain, and memory using cannabinoids—some of which are even found in breast milk. Learn how this system works and its role in health and wellness.
Trichome Room
Step inside an immersive sensory experience where glowing trichomes pulse to music and poetry. Created in collaboration with visual artists and poets, this room invites you to experience cannabis at a microscopic level.
