    What do you do with the resulting toxic hemp though? It’s just a repackaged heavy metal that’s going to get composted back into the dirt at some point.

      That’s a good question. I imagine sequestration, extracting the heavy metals and using it for industrial purposes, or extreme dilution (the old saying “The solution to pollution is dilution” is true, you just have to do it right. They’re all naturally occurring elements, it’s just the concentrations that are toxic.)
