// Definition
The concept that hemp and drug cannabis exist on a continuum rather than as distinct species, with landraces historically used for both fiber and drug purposes. Drug varietals can be processed into hemp twine, fiber, and yarn, while hemp landraces may contain both CBD and considerable THC.
// From the Episode
Skunkman Sam explained that historically, the same landraces were used for both hemp fiber and drug production. They took drug varietals and made them into hemp twine, fiber, and yarn. Most industrial hemp varieties were bred for compliance with THC thresholds rather than being truly distinct species. Some landraces contained both CBD and considerable THC in individual plants.
