OK so… just had to look this up. Hemp appears to be (drumroll please) Cannabis Sativa.
If you want lots of THC, separate the males from the females, kill all the males, maybe keep one alive to continue the species but for the love of gourd keep it in its own airtight hermetically sealed environment until you WANT to create fertilized seeds. Or so a friend told me.
Now maybe industrial hemp has been bred to produce less than 0.3% THC (boo hissss!) but I wonder if you raised it while isolating the females… hmmmmm. I do have some friends in IN.
So, hemp flower = cannabis sativa flower… 0.3% THC in the buds? sigh…
Question: what sort of CO2 sequestration happens w these kinds of plants? Are they good in a crop rotation? Nitrogen fixing?
