Living on the left coast, it has come to my attention that a bunch of green freshly harvested hemp stalks are most likely at an arm’s reach. Upon being made aware of this, my pyro sense kicks in and I immediately start fantasizing about getting my grubby hands on some to make a bunch of “Hemp Charcoal”…..
Lots of information on cooking charcoal is available, however it all seems geared toward utilizing split de-barked chunks of woods such as “pine, paulownia, willow, etc.” and they differ considerably from a physical standpoint from hemp stalks. The stalk of the hemp plant contains two types of fiber — the outer bast fiber which can be processed into long strands, and the inner woody core, or hurds.

Anyone have any advice on how to properly process green “hemp stalks” into high grade “hemp charcoal”. Your thoughts would be appreciated.
