Carbon monoxide and smoke tars were both qualitatively reduced by the vaporizer, but additional testing is needed to quantify the extent of the decrease. Research is presently underway to explore the optimal temperature and conditions for vaporization. Further studies may be needed to explore alternative device designs and the effects of different marijuana sample consistency, potency and preparation. The legislation calls for the University of Illinois and Southern Illinois University to grow hemp to determine its potential as a statewide cash crop. To get to that potential, we have to do a lot of research and study.
Industrial hemp has a long history as a successful and useful cash crop.
