Frequently Asked Questions
What is Cannabis?
Cannabis is a prehistoric species of plant that produces male and female offspring. In ancient times, humans began to recognize the practical and nutritional benefits of the male plant and the mystical and medicinal benefits of the female Cannabis plant. It wasn’t long before they became intimately involved with its reproduction.
Due to constant human intervention for thousands of years, Cannabis has evolved into two distinct sub-species called marijuana and hemp.
What is Hemp?
Hemp is the male cannabis plant after thousands of years of being selectively bred for it’s seed robustness and fibre strength. There are many strains of hemp.
What is Marijuana?
Marijuana is the female cannabis plant after thousands of years of being selectively bred for it’s flower potency. There are many strains of marijuana
What is the confusion?
Both hemp and marijuana seeds continue to produce male and female plants. However, today’s hemp females will not produce flowers with THC (the primary medicinal ingredient in marijuana), and likewise Marijuana males will not produce nutriously viable seed or long durable fibres. |
