Over the past few decades, marijuana plants have undergone significant evolution, mainly due to human beings. Every strain differs from the others in terms of its structure, buds, flavor, and effects. Different strains of male and female marijuana plants can be combined, and the resulting plant will inherit traits from both, allowing us to create entirely new species.
First and foremost, marijuana flowers can only be produced by female plants. Female plants are preferred in cultivation gardens because they produce more blooms, the only portion of the cannabis plant that produces any detectable amount of THC.
On the other hand, Male cannabis plants don't produce flowers. They hardly ever produce any THC as a result. Male cannabis plants generate pollen sacs rather than flowers. These tiny, nut- or ball-shaped organs house pollen. When they bloom, the pollen spreads out and flies around on tiny air currents in search of female plants. To reproduce, pollen finds a female plant, settles on her blossoms, and the two plants combine their DNA. In essence, it's how cannabis plants interact.
At the start of the flowering stage, female cannabis seeds also have V-shaped pistils, while male seeds do not have these features. Cannabis plants that are female produce far stronger cannabis than those that are male. Female plants are often favoured for this purpose, while occasionally male plants can be utilised to create concentrated products like hash. Visit Grassdooor to buy cannabis flowers online.
Female marijuana plants.
Male plants are considered to be marijuana, but not the same as a female. While they produce no tetrahydracanabinol (THC), which is the main pshychoactive chemical produced by the female marijuana plant. They do not assist in the process of recreating by producing flowers.
Male Marijuana plants do in fact grow THC. The Male flowers contain THC, but a much smaller amount than the Female flowers. Male plants also produce THC on their leaves, but again, it is a much lower content than from Female leaves. Male plants are rarely harvested as the flowers have a low THC content. Female plants can have as much as 20% THC content on the flowers, while Male may only grow as much as 3% THC content on the flowers. From personal experience, I have harvested a 3 month male marijuana plant, and made cannabutter from all the leaves and flowers. The end result was very disappointing; it wasn't even strong enough to give a high. I think the reasoning for the lower THC content was due to the fact that u harvested the plant when it was only 3 months which means the plant is not at it's full potential for producing THC however you are correct in the matter that male vs female plants which one produces more THC is the female due to the flowers containing more THC and pistols which contain the THC and other cannabinoids which is part of the reason why u should use the female vs the male plant for medical use
THC occurs naturally in the marijuana plant in small, crystal-like structures called trichomes. These trichomes produce and store the THC and other cannabinoids that give marijuana its psychoactive effects. When the marijuana plant is harvested, dried, and then heated (through smoking, vaporizing, or cooking), the THC is activated and can be ingested to produce its effects.
THC
At maturity, the female marijuana flower develops cannabis buds that contain cannabinoids like THC and CBD. These buds are the desired part of the plant for consumption either through smoking, vaporizing, or cooking.
Tetrahydrocannabinol is produced in the buds of the female marijuana plant, THC does not naturally occur in male marijuana plants.
The spheroidal cystolith is a marijuana plants defense against disease. It is different from the tricombs, as it does not have the effects of THC.
Hemp and marijuana are related plants, similar in appearance, but not the same when it comes to chemical makeup. Industrial hemp is a fibrous plant used to make rope, paper, fabric, oil products and more, but contains only minute amounts of THC. Hemp seeds are commonly used in many types of bird seed mixes. Marijuana contains high levels of THC and is used as a drug. And yes, plants have different sexes. Female marijuana plants produce buds (flowers), which contain the highest concentration of THC. And, when polinated by a male plant, those buds will develop seeds. Male plants have leaves and nodes for pollination, but do not produce buds or seeds. Their leaves do however, contain THC. Hemp is hemp, marijuana is marijuana - they are not the same plant.
Marijuana plants generally produce the most THC. So far as I can tell, no other plants have been discovered that also produce this fascinating chemical.
No. You don't actually smoke the 'plant'. There are female and male marijuana plants, males simply grow leaves and can pollinate the female, and the female grows the buds, which you (or people) smoke. When the female plant grows the buds (which contain the THC that creates the desired high), they can be picked and smoked immediately. But you don't smoke the actual leaf of a marijuana plant. Hope this helps.
