MemberSupport Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 The term ‘marijuana’ (sometimes spelled ‘marihuana’) is Mexican in origin and typically refers to any part of — or any one of — the three distinctive subspecies of the cannabis plant: 1.) Cannabis sativa (which tends to grow tall and stalky) 2.) Cannabis indica (which tends to grow smaller and bushier) 3.) Cannabis ruderalis (found primarily in Russia and Eastern Europe.) Grown outdoors, the cannabis plant typically achieves maturity within three to five months. Cultivated indoors under optimum heat and lighting, the plant may reach maturity within as few as 60 days. Despite almost a century of federal, criminal prohibition, an estimated one in seven US adults acknowledge being current marijuana consumers. Quote Link to comment
