Hi Roger,
I did not see your reply come into my mailbox so am late
replying.
I am glad that 'golly ole England' has allowed the growing
of the hemp plant to make hemp ropes. Maybe England
could send their Industrial hemp plants over to the US so
we can start reproducing Linen, paper, ropes and all the
wonderful products it use to and be the 'billion dollar product'
that it was meant to be..
And I will raise up
for them a plant of renown, and they shall be no more consumed with
hunger in the land, neither bear the reproach of the heathen anymore..
– Ezekiel 34:29 - Geneva Study Bible (A. D. 1599)Maybe we ought to start picketing!! *grin*
Here is the difference that Thomas submitted and I copied forward:
*While
industrial hemp and marijuana may look somewhat alike to an untrained
eye, an easily trained eye can easily distinguish the difference.
*Industrial hemp
has a THC content of between 0.05 and 1%. Marijuana has a THC content
of 3% to 20%. To receive a standard psychoactive dose would require a
person to power-smoke 10-12 hemp cigarettes over an extremely short
period of time. The large volume and high temperature of vapor, gas and
smoke would be almost impossible for a person to withstand.
