Chapters

What is the structure of hemp different than the marijuana plant? It's a lot of confusion about that. So, look, it's all cannabis. Cannabis is the name of the plant. They look the same. The only difference is, is the genetics. And in our country, if anything has more than 0.3% THC, if it has more than that, it's considered marijuana. If it has less than 0.3% THC, that cannabis plant, it's considered, in our country, hemp. So they're both cannabis. It's just a matter of does it have thc, a lot of THC in it.
