Hemp - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

all you need to know about hemp...

i meant physical wise, how can i tell the difference in appearance, i know about hemps characteristics like it has 1-2% thc but how can i tell if its marijuana or hemp growing outside, theres alot of plants!

hemp is of the sativa strain. so the leave are very similar to that of the cannibus sativa marijuana plant. so as long as your growing sativa, not indica, the difference will be hard to notice by the fan leaves.

the plants as a whole are different. hemp grows up to 25 feet tall. where weed should only grow up to 8 feet max. so the picture of the giant forest of weed, isnt. its hemp

so there is a noticeable difference in height obviously. but whats stopping you from planting a few marijuanna plants in a hemp feild? just dont check them everday when planting outside, and also you lose alot of crop outside so plant quite a few.

I agree with most of this except that marijuana only grows up to 8 feet. Maybe if it is pure indica.. Sativa's can and will grow up to 15 feet or more in the right conditions.

To be certain, perhaps you could find out by searching the county plat/property achieves.

***"Marijuana plants and hemp plants have different appearances and are harvested differently. Marijuana plants tend to be short and bushy, while hemp plants can have stalks that are 25 feet high."

***"Sativa marijuana plants vary from about 6ft to over 25ft in height.Most varieties grow in the 8ft to 12ft range."

"...over 25ft in hieght" refers to the hemp side of the sativa strain.

my bad about the 8ft thing. but ive never heard or seen a picture of a 15 mj plant. if you could find a pic thatd be awesome.

HEMP AND MARIJUANA: Myths and Realities
The Hemp and Cannabis Foundation

This is a hemp field:

just a question, do you get the sensimillia equivalent of hemp?

so, a female non-pollinated hemp plant, and does is bud similarly to marijuana, i've always wondered.

na its not someones theres madd forests of untouched plants just wildly growing everywere, no traces of humans at all, not even animal traces. and either way im not a theif i was just wondering about the difference so i can know for future reference! Im planning on indoor grow anyway!

Are there any ways to tell the difference from a hemp bud and a cannabis bud? like different looking seeds or anything?

its wild weed or hemp, people in ukraine dont bash on weed and dont grow it in secrecy, its all over the place.!
