So why is their hemp industry not thriving. They should be making fabrics and paper with it.

In addition, in order to get useful fibers, plants are sown at a density of at least several hundred seeds per square meter. They stretch to 2-3 meters tall trying to win the race to the sunlight. Stalks of plants grown in the typical indoor grow way are only good as very low grade biomass for methane digestion or as chips that might serve in hemplime or hempcrete. An insignificant market so far as these technologies are still going through the regulatory processes to be used more widely.
There are effective dual cropping systems that can yield cannabinoids from flower and get useful fiber but it is not common yet either.
I’m fairly certain that it’s the same plant with less active cannabinoids. The gender doesn’t matter. They can use all of it.
Them discarding the flower doesn’t mean they arent using the hemp part.
I would imagine they seperate those almost immediately if not the moment it’s out of the ground. If they’re using a combine to harvest it, then that probably seperates it.
They should sell it for biomass fuel. :)
This just in, huffing your cars exhaust gets you H.I.G.H.

This was my first thought, too.
I think Hemp is a different species that has low amounts of thc.
Same species! The line between them is actually pretty blurry and some strains are inbetween. They’re just different general ‘types’ within the same species
Different “types” in horticulture are called variants, for future explanation reference.
Haha thanks!
