Marijuana is simply considered to have a higher content of cannabinoids THC. Both plants contain cannabinoids, kind of chemical that activates receptors in cell membranes. The most famous of these cannabinoids is tetrahydrocannabinol or THC. You need to have a female plant for effective medical oil from marijuana (cannabis). Knowing that oil medicinal marijuana (cannabis) is not the same as hemp oil. Hemp oil is cold-pressed oil from the seeds of the hemp plant. It is rich in essential fatty acids and is used in the diet because of its nutritional properties. Hemp oil can easily be bought in health food stores.

THC and cannabinoids in the plant cells and affect the offering medicinal properties. Embrace these synonyms. Oil medical marijuana is also known as hemp oil, cannabis oil, Rick Simpson oil, fully-extracted cannabis oil and so on. PROCESS OF COOKING OIL AND OBTAIN SA cannabis THC IMPORTANT: Be very careful when cooking with the solvent [option with flammable solvent], the flame is extremely flammable. Avoid smoking, sparks, and hot heater. Set fan to blow the smoke away from the pot, and place the cooking process in a well-ventilated space. 1. Place the completely dry material in a plastic container. 2. Absorb the material with the solvent you are using. Many solvents can be used in the process. You can use pure methanol (Eng. Naphtha), ether, butane, 99% isopropyl alcohol, or even water. (Ask another). Two gallons or 7.5 liters of solvent are required for the solvent extraction (extraction) of THC from cannabis 500 grams, and 500 mL of solvent is sufficient for the 28 grams (1 ounce). 3rd Crush and chop the material by plants using pure, untreated stick of wood, or any other similar tool. Although the plant material only slightly moistened, it will remain relatively slight chop because it is very dry. 4. Set the chop cannabis plant material with the rod, and adding the solvent at room temperature until the plant material is not completely covered and soaked. The next step is blending a mixture of about three minutes. When you do this, the THC is dissolved in a solvent and drop from the plant material. 5. Detach from the plant material and solvent solution of oil in another container cannabis. At this point you have extracted approximately 80% THC from cannabis. 6. Second rinse: re-add a solvent in the same (but washed) of cannabis plant material and stir for another three minutes to extract the residual THC. 7. Detach again otapinu solvents and cannabis oil in same one container into which you place the first extract, containing the first mixture. 8. Throw twice extracted cannabis plant material. Pour the ninth solution of the oil and the cannabis solvent through a filter maker (the most practical, or another filter paper) and another Filter the solution into a clean container. 10th Cook to get rid of solvent from the solution: usually stove will boil the solution and separate the solvent completely fine, and may be submitted by volume cooking of even half a gallon (1.9 liters) mixture otapine. CAUTION: Avoid red-hot elements, sparks, cigarettes and open flames - vapor solutions are extremely flammable. 11th Add otapinu the stove so that it is 3/4 full and place the highest temperature cooking. Make sure you have a well ventilated area and set the fan to carry the solvent fumes to evaporate away from the place of cooking. Continue adding the mixture solution of solvent and oil THC in the stove as the solvent evaporates from the solution until you add all the solution. 12. When the level in the cooker cut for the last time (after the last addition of the solution, add a few drops of water (about 10 drops of water per pound of dry material cannabis). This will help to get rid of the remaining residual solvent, and protect oil too heat. 13. When the level of the mixture of solvent and water in the cooker about 2 cm, put your oven mitts and stir in a circular motion stove until the solvent is not completely evaporated from the solution. 14. When you have bleached the solvent from the solution, reduce the heat to a minimum cooking temperature cooking over low heat (or at least an electric cooker). At no time oil temperature must not exceed more than 290 ° F or 140 ° C. 15th Replace gloves and remove the pan containing oil or cooking with the stove (with heat).

Hemp and Marijuana – ELIMINATING THE CONFUSION


Hemp/industrial hemp and marijuana are two distinct varieties of the same plant species. Hemp is a fiber crop. Marijuana is a drug crop. However, these definitions have become confused in the last 60 years. Recently, a movement has begun to distinguish the terms again. It is important to understand the history of usage of these terms in order to eliminate the confusion. 1600-1930s Hemps Long History in North America The word hemp has been in the English language for over 800 years. The word marijuana is only 100 years old. From the first settling of North America until the 1930s, hemp was the most common term for Cannabis sativa fiber crops. Marijuana was never used to describe hemp fiber crops, which were grown for canvas, rope, fuel oil, and paper. Hemp fiber crops were historically low THC and completely non-psychoactive. 1930s-1940s Marijuana tax Act confuses Hemp and Marijuana In the 1930s, the psychoactive (high-THC) variety of cannabis sativa, imported from Mexico, became common in the southern U.S. It was called marijuana, a word popularized through the Reefer Madness campaign, to distinguish it from the hemp fiber crops (which no one ever smoked). In 1937, the passage of the Marijuana tax Act hopelessly confused the terms hemp and marijuana. For the first time, Congress defined these distinct varieties of Cannabis sativa as being the same. What had been commonly known as hemp was now marijuana. 1950s Hemp Crops Become Extinct In 1957, the last hemp fiber crop was harvested in the U.S. Because low-THC Cannabis sativa fiber crops were now extinct, the word hemp dropped out of use and was forgotten. 1960s Marijuana Legalization Movement Begins In the 1960s, the psychoactive variety of cannabis sativa (marijuana) became popular among the counter-culture. The movement to legalize marijuana in the 1960s and 1970s did not use the term hemp to describe marijuana. 1985 Hemp/ Marijuana Movement Begins In 1985, the word hemp re-surfaced in the book The Emperor Wears No Clothes by Jack Herer. This book uncovered information that had been lost for almost 40 years about hemps historical uses as a fiber crop. The book also touted hemp as a solution to modern environmental problems. Because The Emperor was targeted at a marijuana movement and since it was not widely known that low-THC varieties of hemp existed in Europe and Asia, it was believed that marijuana must be legalized to allow industrial uses of hemp. And because it was the environmentalists and the counter-culture that began promoting hemp as an alternative fiber crop, they were not taken seriously. 1989 European Farmers Grow Hemp In Europe, some countries (like France and Spain) had never stopped producing hemp. In 1989, the European Economic Community developed rules to govern hemp production that applied to all its member countries. The EEC defined registered seed varieties for low THC hemp and methods for testing hemp for THC content. 1993-1994 England and Canada Grow Hemp In 1993, England officially recognized the difference between hemp and marijuana, to make its farmers competitive in the EEC. In 1994, Canada, seeing competition from Europe, allowed hemp production. 1994 Kentucky Appoints Hemp Task Force In November of 1994, the Governor of Kentucky, seeing competition from Canada and Europe, appointed a Task Force to study the commercial possibilities of hemp in his state. 1994-1995 Hemp/Industrial Hemp Movement Begins in U.S. For the first time, farmers, manufacturers, processors, and agricultural researchers in North America began to take a serious look at hemp as an agricultural crop and alternative fiber. As well, the hemp environmentalists within the marijuana movement see that registered seed varieties exist to distinguish hemp from marijuana. This diverse coalition begins using the word industrial hemp (or simply hemp) to refer exclusively to low-THC non-psychoactive varieties of Cannabis sativa. The goal of the industrial hemp movement is to allow legitimate production of hemp fiber crops and to explore the environmental benefits of hemp as an alternative fiber, pulp, and oil source. Jan. 1995 Colorado Senator Introduces Hemp Legislation In January 1995, Senator Lloyd Casey (D-Northglenn), made Colorado the first state to attempt to define hemp/industrial hemp as distinct form marijuana when he introduced the Hemp Production Act. Unfortunately, this bill was killed in Committee due to objections from the federal Drug Enforcement Administration. Oct. 1995 North American Industrial Hemp Council Formed In October 1995, the steering committee of the North American Industrial Hemp Council made industrial hemp an entirely distinct issue, separate from the legalization of marijuana. Jan. 1996 Colorado and Vermont Introduce Hemp Legislation Legislators in two states introduced industrial hemp legislation, Sen. Lloyd Casey (D) from Colorado and Rep. Fred Maslack (R) from Vermont. Jan. 1996 Support for Hemp Grows A strong coalition of diverse organizations now supports Industrial hemp, including: American Farm Bureau federation (4.6 million member) Colorado Farm Bureau Colorado Department of Agriculture Colorado State Grange Kentucky Farm Bureau Kentucky Hemp Growers Cooperative Wisconsin Agribusiness Council Wisconsin Department of Agriculture International Paper Company Bolton Emerson Americas Colorado Environmental Coalition Oregon Natural Resources Council HIA (Hemp Industries Association) North American Industrial Hemp Council Most, if not all of these groups have specifically stated that they are opposed to the legalization of marijuana. They realize the difference between hemp/industrial hemp and marijuana and that hemp/industrial hemp can be grown safely without affecting marijuana laws, production, or use. Today: Making Progress… 25 of 53 state hemp-related bills introduced since 1995 have passed and overall, 14 states have successfully passed hemp-related legislation. In 2002, hemp bills have been introduced in seven states: Arizona, California, Hawaii, New Mexico, Vermont, Wisconsin and West Virginia. The CA, HI and WV bills have passed, the NM and VT bills have died in committee, and the AZ and WI bills have been held until 2003.
