Hemp originates from the North-West Himalayas extending all the way through to the Aral and Caspian Seas. Farmed varieties were developed from the naturally growing species of Cannabis sativa L. ssp. spontanea<\/em>, by picking the plants and taking them to other geographical and ecological areas. To the south and the north-west, different hemp ecotypes have been created and spread. They are known for their different morphological and, above all, chemical properties, as well as the purpose for which they are used.<\/p>\n

Types of hemp<\/h2>\n

The hemp species we are most familiar with are Cannabis sativa L. var. sativa<\/em> (true or industrial hemp), and Cannabis sativa L. var. indica<\/em> (Indian hemp). The latter is used to manufacture drugs, which is what gives the entire Cannabis genus a bad name. The difference between these species is their THC content (tetrahydrocannabinol \u2013 a psychoactive cannabinoid) and their CBD content (cannabidiol without any psychoactive effect and a THC inhibitor), whereby the ratio between THC and CBD in common hemp is that of 1:5, and with Indian hemp, the ratio is of 2:1. Since both species are so similar, the most reliable indicator of the species is a chemical analysis showing the THC and CBD content.<\/p>\n\t\n \n
