No, it is not called hemp.

They began with modern, high strength cannabis, which as you know has lots of components besides THC that do a body good. Almost all of these components occur in other plants that are not prohibited.

These components are not psychoactive and are not considered controlled substances. The terpene Linolool, for instance: It is the thing in lavender that gives it its’ relaxing properties.

Growers used selective breeding to eventually reduce the amount of THC in their high end pot, and the end result is a product that can be given to children who suffer from uncontrollable seizures, without the risk of them getting “high”.
