A method of producing new types of hybrid silk and hemp fibers is described, comprising the steps of inserting hemp genes into mulberry DNA within mulberry cells, and vice versa, to form genetically-altered mulberry and hemp cells growing the genetically altered cells into a plant feeding the genetically altered plant to silkworms and the silkworms producing silk, wherein the silk has hemp characteristics. Another method of producing new types of hybrid silk and hemp fibers is described, comprising the steps of creating a bioreactor containing man-made silkworms, wherein the silkworms imitate the process of spinning a cocoon artificially feeding the silkworms a hemp food source and allowing the silkworms to produce silk, wherein the silk has hemp characteristics.
