Cannabis & Hemp Pathogen Test Kits for Canadian Growers
Protect your cannabis and hemp crops with Agdia's gold-standard diagnostic test kits. From rapid ImmunoStrip® field tests to high-throughput ELISA and molecular AmplifyRP® XRT assays — detect HLVd, Fusarium, TMV, Botrytis and more before it's too late.
Why Test Your Cannabis & Hemp Crops?
Pathogens like HLVd, Fusarium and TMV can devastate your crop yield and potency. Early detection is your best defence.
HLVd — The Silent Killer
Hop latent viroid (HLVd) causes "dudding disease," reducing THC/CBD potency by up to 50–70%. Plants may look normal but produce worthless flower. Testing is the only way to catch it early.
Protect Mother Plants & Clones
Screen incoming clones and mother stock before introducing them to your facility. A single infected plant can spread pathogens to your entire operation through tools and handling.
Meet Compliance Standards
Health Canada's Good Production Practices (GPP) require licensed producers to maintain pathogen-free cultivation environments. Regular testing demonstrates due diligence and protects your licence.
Save Thousands in Crop Loss
A single Fusarium or Botrytis outbreak can destroy an entire grow room. Testing costs a fraction of what a failed harvest would.
Field & Lab Options
ImmunoStrip® tests deliver results in 30 minutes right in your grow room. ELISA kits process hundreds of samples in the lab. AmplifyRP® detects DNA/RNA-based pathogens like HLVd with molecular precision.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about cannabis and hemp pathogen testing with Agdia kits.
Cannabis Pathogen Testing in Canada
Cannabis and hemp cultivation in Canada faces increasing pressure from plant pathogens that can devastate crop yield, potency, and quality. Whether you're a Health Canada licensed producer operating a large-scale indoor facility, a micro-cultivator, or a hemp farmer growing outdoors across the prairies, pathogen testing is no longer optional — it's essential for sustainable, profitable growing.
The HLVd Crisis in Canadian Cannabis
Hop latent viroid (HLVd) has emerged as the most significant pathogen threat to cannabis cultivation worldwide, and Canada is no exception. Studies estimate that 30–40% of cannabis facilities may be harbouring HLVd-infected plants, often without visible symptoms. The viroid causes "dudding disease," dramatically reducing cannabinoid and terpene production. Agdia's AmplifyRP® XRT assay is one of the most reliable, accessible tools for HLVd detection, enabling growers to identify and cull infected plants before the viroid spreads through their entire facility.
Key Cannabis Pathogens to Monitor
Beyond HLVd, Canadian cannabis growers must be vigilant against Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) — one of the most persistent plant viruses known, surviving on surfaces for years; Fusarium oxysporum — a soil-borne fungus causing wilt and root rot; Botrytis cinerea (grey mold) — a constant threat in humid grow environments; Phytophthora species — water molds that devastate root systems, especially in hydroponic setups; and Alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) which affects both indoor and outdoor cannabis.
Why Choose Immunomart for Agdia Products?
As Agdia's authorized Canadian distributor, Immunomart offers the complete range of Agdia plant diagnostic products with the convenience of local service: Canadian dollar pricing, domestic shipping across Canada, expert technical support, and no cross-border customs delays.
Serving Canada's Cannabis Industry
We supply pathogen test kits to licensed producers (LPs) and micro-cultivators across British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, and the Maritime provinces. Our customers include some of Canada's largest cannabis operations, as well as university research labs, provincial agriculture departments, and individual craft growers.
Choosing the Right Test
For routine scouting and quick checks on incoming clones, ImmunoStrip® tests provide affordable, rapid results right in your grow room. For high-volume testing programs at LP facilities, ELISA Reagent Sets and PathoScreen® kits offer the throughput to screen hundreds or thousands of plants efficiently. For viroids like HLVd and HSVd — which cannot be detected by antibody-based tests — AmplifyRP® XRT molecular assays are essential. Many facilities use a combination of all three technologies for comprehensive crop protection.
