The tough fiber of the plant, cultivated as hemp, has numerous textile uses. Its seed, chiefly used as caged-bird feed, is a valuable source of protein, energy, and long-chain fatty acids, and also contain oil that can be used to make paints, varnishes and soaps. Most concentrated in the resin of female plant are psychoactive and physiologically active chemical compounds known as cannabinoids that are consumed for recreational, medicinal, and spiritual purposes. When so used, preparations of flowers and leaves, sometimes called mar ...

Cannabis reproduces sexually. The flowers of the female plant, in cannabis usually called buds, are arranged in racemes and can produce hundreds of seeds. Males reach sexual maturity several weeks prior to females. Although genetics disposes a plant to become male, environmental factors, including the diurnal light cycle, can alter the sex. Natural hermaphrodites, with both male and female parts, are either sterile or fertile but artificially induced hermaphrodites can have fully functional reproductive organs. 'Feminized' seed sold b ...

Though the main psychoactive chemical compound in cannabis is Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the plant is known to contain about sixty cannabinoids. One other cannabinoid of particularly high concentration in some plants is cannabidiol (CBD), which is not psychoactive but modifies the effect of THC. Differences in the chemical composition of cannabis varieties may produce different effects in humans. Synthetic THC, called dronabinol, does not contain CBD, CBN, or other cannabinoids, which is one reason why its pharmacological effects may differ si ...

Cannabis is a member of the family Cannabinacea, along with hops. Cannabis is an annual and usually dioecious, which means it has separate pistillate (female) and stamenate (male) plants. A shorter photoperiod (day length) towards the end of the growing season is generally required to induce the reproductive (sometimes called flowering or budding) phase of growth, however some cultivars of Cannabis are auto-flowering, which means that ...

This section covers the traditional method of cultivating medicinal or recreational marijuana indoors, wherein the plants are grown in a soil-like medium and fertilizer is added when the plants are given water. Traditional outdoor cultivation techniques are covered in the next section, and alternative techniques, such as hydroponics and organic cultivation techniques, are discussed in the last section. Cultivating marijuana indoors is more complicated and expensive than growing outdoors, but it allows the cultivator complete control over the growing environment, and will ...

Cannabis cultivation - Ideal harvest timing. Buds are typically harvested when fully ripe. Generally, ripeness is defined as when the white pistils start to turn dark yellow, orange, light to mid red, etc. and the trichomes, "crystals", barely begin to turn milky from clear. Ideally, the professional uses both a decent power magnifying glass, brix meter (to measure "sugar" content), and microscope. The potential seed pods swell with resins usually reserved for seed production, thus improving the quality of the bu ...

When cultivated outdoors, the chosen areas are those which receive twelve hours or more of sunlight in a given day. Northern locations are preferred (Humboldt County, California and British Columbia being particularly notable), but southern locations (such as Maui, Hawaii) are also known to be good producers. In general, a south facing exposure is preferred for maximum sunlight exposure. In instances where the local laws do not permit growing cannabis, cultivators may choose to grow in forests or rugged and rural areas where the local ...

An important factor in extreme efficiency cannabis cultivation is selecting the best genetics for one's crop. This is frequently done by selecting one or more known strains, or strains with preferred genetics (in the case of marijuana, one might use seeds from a batch that was particularly enjoyed), and then growing a number of the seeds to find out which exhibit the characteristics most desirable to the cultivator. Plant characteristics which are generally selected for include: Overall yield Time to frui ...

As cannabis and its cultivation is illegal in most parts of the world, considerable resources are committed to the interdiction of cultivation. Outdoor cultivation is common in both rural and urban areas, with outdoor cultivators tending towards growing sativa-based strains for better response to sunlight and reduced emission of odours. Cannabis plants blend in easily with other plants to the point that they are unidentifiable by all but the most observant. Often simple camouflage techniques can avert detection, such as ...

Cannabis indica Lam. (sometimes classified Cannabis sativa spp. indica) is a putative species of Cannabis, although not all botanists agree that it should be treated as separate from Cannabis sativa L. ([1]). Schultes described C. indica as relatively short, conical, and densely branched, whereas C. sativa was described as tall and laxly branched ([2]). According to Anderson, C. indica has short, broad leaflets whereas those of C. sativa are relatively long and narrow ([3]). Cannabis indica ...
