Registered farmers can grow strains of hemp that contain high levels of CBD and very little, less than 0.3% THC.
Where does CBD flower come from?
CBD is a shortened form of cannabidiol, a phytocannabinoid derived from cannabis species. Cannabinoids are commonly found in marijuana and hemp. But CBD flower can only come from hemp plants with low THC content.

CBD flower: hemp vs marijuana
What is hemp?
Hemp, or industrial hemp, is a botanical class of Cannabis sativa species grown specifically for industrial or medicinal use. It can be used to make a wide variety of products. Along with bamboo, hemp is one of the fastest growing plants on earth.
What is marijuana?
Cannabis, also known as marijuana, is a psychoactive drug from the cannabis plant. Native to Central and South Asia, the cannabis plant has been used for centuries as a drug for recreational and entheogenic purposes, as well as in various traditional medicines.
Growing hemp
A fast-growing plant, hemp is excellent for making rope. Hemp grows rapidly, producing up to 75 tonnes of dry matter per hectare per year. It thrives in poor soil, needs no fertilizer or pesticides to succeed, and eats up atmospheric CO2, inhibiting the greenhouse effect. It produces more fibre per kilogram than cotton or flax, and these fibres are easily extracted to make hemp twine, twine or cord.
Comparison of hemp and marijuana
What are cannabinoids?
Cannabinoids are compounds or synthetic compounds found in the cannabis plant that can interact with the endocannabinoid system. The most important cannabinoid is the phytocannabinoid tetrahydrocannabinol, which is the primary toxic compound in cannabis. Cannabidiol is the other main constituent of some cannabis plants.
How are cannabinoids made?
Cannabinoid production begins when an enzyme causes geranyl pyrophosphate and olivetolic acid to combine to form CBGA. CBGA is then independently converted into CBG, THCA, CBDA or CBCA by four separate synthase enzymes, FAD-dependent dehydrogenase.
How hemp works in the body?
CBD (or cannabidiol) interacts with cannabinoid receptors in the endocannabinoid system, which are distributed throughout the body. Cannabidiol also interacts with a number of other receptors, including those that activate the immune response and enable the sensation of pain.
CBD flower: How does CBD work?

Hemp: Cannabis sativa
Cannabis sativa is an annual, herbaceous flowering plant native to East Asia, but now cosmopolitan in distribution thanks to widespread cultivation. Throughout recorded history it has been cultivated, used as a source of industrial fibre, seed oil, food, recreation, religious and spiritual sentiments and medicine.
Marijuana: Cannabis indica
Cannabis indica is a species of annual plant in the Cannabaceae family that produces high levels of tetrahydrocannabinol, and hashish is also grown in India.
Autoflower plant breeding: Cannabis ruderalis
Due to its ability to autoflower, ruderalis can be used to breed new cannabis strains. Although not desirable on its own for recreational or medicinal purposes, when crossed with high quality indica/sativa/hybrid strains, ruderalis can endow the resulting strain with the autoflowering property.
FAQ:
Q. what is a cbd flower
CBD hemp flower, sometimes called CBD hemp bud or simply bud, is derived from female hemp plants. As the female plant matures and enters the flowering stage of its life cycle, it expends more energy to produce flowers covered with sticky compounds called trichomes. Think of it as nature's all-natural velcro. These trichomes, where CBD and other cannabinoids are formed, were created in an attempt to capture the pollen released by male hemp plants.
