What’s the difference between hemp, marijuana, and cannabis?
Cannabis is the name of the flowering plant in the Cannabaceae family.
“Hemp” is a term often used to classify non-intoxicating cannabis — that is, they contain less than 0.3% of THC content.
“Marijuana” is a term often used to classify cannabis that is intoxicating, inducing a psychotropic effect on the user.
non-intoxicating cannabis and intoxicating cannabis can look exactly the same, causing plenty of confusion. It’s important to know where your cannabis comes from.
