HEMP fabric is a type of fabric that is made with fibers from the stems of the Cannabis sativa plant. As hemp is becoming increasingly important for a more sustainable lifestyle, it is essential to understand the various uses of this plant. The four parts of a hemp plant are seeds, stems, roots and leaves. Each part has its own purpose, such as producing fuel, fiber, medicines and healing the soil.
Hemp (Cannabis sativa) is sometimes confused with cannabis plants that are used to make marijuana and hashish. However, hemp contains only small amounts of THC compared to marijuana or hashish. Hemp plants can survive in almost any environment and have four main parts: seeds, stems, leaves and roots. The seeds are nutritious and can be used as fuel, while the stems are used to make fabric.
The leaves produce medicines and the roots heal the soil. Hemp plants grown for fiber can reach heights of up to 10-18 feet and are usually planted between early May and early June. Mature female CBD hemp plants can reach heights of up to 6-12 feet and are typically ready for harvest from late September to early October. To be legally classified as a hemp plant, a cannabis plant must not contain more than 0.3% THC in dry weight.
Knowing the different parts of the hemp plant will allow people to better understand its various uses and benefits.
