\"Differences
Differences Between Hemp and Cannabis<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cannabis and hemp<\/strong> are two terms that have often been used indistinctly in the past and, although there is a direct connection between both of them, there is a separation between the two types of species in the Cannabis gender.<\/p>\n

To first understand the difference between hemp and cannabis, we must look at its scientific classification of the marijuana we know today. Its family is Cannabaceae<\/a> <\/strong>and its genus is Cannabis. Next, the species found within Cannabis are Cannabis sativa, Cannabis indica, and Cannabis ruderalis<\/em>. The first two are well known within the cannabis community, but Cannabis ruderalis is less understood.<\/p>\n
