The Difference Between Henp and Marijana

Hemp is used to make food, textiles and building materials. Marijuana is used to make medicine and get high. Cannabis is the name of the plant they both come from.

Think of it this way: Cannabis is Mum & Dad and they had kids

The First Kid Was Hemp

Everyone loves Hemp – she’s helpful, hard-working and honest. She would never dream of getting you high.

Next They Had Twins – The Marijuana Twins, CBD and THC

CBD is purely medicinal and loves taking care of people. She was misunderstood as a kid but grew up to be a respected doctor. She won’t get you high.

THC, though…look, she’s a bit of a party animal. She loves to hang out and have fun, but she also loves taking care of people. She will definitely get you high. She’ll also fix you up, since there’s medicine in there too – she’s a nurse, but one of those “party animal” nurses.

Only THC contains psychoactive substances, meaning that Hemp and CBD will not get you “high”.

Why the Confusion?

People regularly confuse Cannabis, Hemp and Marijuana. This is no accident – it’s due to the “Reefer Madness” campaigns of the 1930s, which led to the criminalisation of all forms of cannabis, including hemp. This was financed by industrialists who wished to discredit hemp, as it was threatening their profits from cotton and other textiles.
