<strong>other plants <\/strong>that <strong>contain cannabinoid-like compounds<\/strong>, also known as <strong>cannabimimetic <\/strong>compounds, that also <strong>interact with the endocannabinoid system<\/strong>. Some of these plants are <strong>cacao, paracress, liverworts, echinacea, black pepper, black truffles or even tea shrubs<\/strong> among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hemp_vs_Marijuana\"><\/span>Hemp vs. Marijuana<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hemp and marijuana<\/strong> are both plants that <strong>come from the same species: Cannabis Sativa<\/strong>. The <strong>main difference<\/strong> between them is their <strong>THC levels<\/strong>. Hemp-derived products have a THC content<strong> lower than 0.3%<\/strong>, which means that it doesn\u2019t create the \u201chigh\u201d, while marijuana does <strong>have much higher THC levels<\/strong> and produce those psychoactive effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Male_and_female_hemp_plants\"><\/span>Male and female hemp plants<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>female hemp plants<\/strong> are the ones that <strong>produce greater amounts of THC, CBD and other derived compounds<\/strong>, which means that they are the best for growing. However, <strong>you need both plants to produce seeds<\/strong>. If you want to grow CBD plants without the risk of growing a male and ruining your crop, then you should try <strong>feminized seeds<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_it_legal_to_grow_CBD_plants\"><\/span>Is it legal to grow CBD plants?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>During the 2018 Farm Bill<\/strong> celebrated in Texas, <strong>hemp was reclassified<\/strong>, so <strong>now is legal to grow industrial hemp <\/strong>as it contains <strong>less than a 0.3% THC<\/strong>. At the time of writing this article (May, 2023), to grow cannabis plants at home, you must be 21 years old in any state of the US, but <strong>the number of plants is limited depending on the state you are in<\/strong>.
