Hemp field in Canada
Most people are by now aware that hemp stalks are used as an industrial textile crop; however, it is actually possible to use the whole plant for a range of products. In this part of our site we explain how the roots and flowers are used to make tinctures, extracts, perfumes and medicines, plus how the seeds are utilised as well. It is a little known fact that drugs such as CBG, found in fresh hemp flowers, have medicinal applications such as the lowering of blood pressure. The seeds produced by the flowers are used to create high-protein food products and may also be pressed into healthy hemp seed oil.
