One nation under hemp, CBD flower for all
The earliest evidence of hemp dates back to 10,000 B.C., when hemp was used by the Chinese for rope, sails, food, clothing and building materials.  Hundreds of years later, hemp made its way to America when colonists were required by the British government to cultivate the plant for rope and sails.  Our founding fathers like George Washington grew hemp; Benjamin Franklin utilized hemp paper for his printing plant.  Believe it or not, the Declaration of Independence and first flag was made of hemp.  By 1943, over 350,000 acres of hemp were growing across the country as the federal government encouraged farmers to grow it because World War II had interrupted the flow of industrial fibers.  By 1970, cannabis became Public Enemy #1 with the passage of the controlled substances act that made cultivation illegal.  Hemp was largely forgotten about and most production shifted to other countries.  It wasn't until 2014 that hemp got a boost with the "Farm Bill," that allowed state agriculture departments and educational institutions the opportunity to grow hemp.  Pilot programs were launched shortly after with many more states opening up their eyes to the potential of growing hemp, especially cbd flower for extraction.  Currently over 35 states have legalized hemp production, with over half allowing for the cultivation of cbd flower.

CBD flower derived from Industrial Hemp vs. Cannabis
Since hemp and cannabis technically originate from the cannabis sativa plant, the main difference between cbd flower derived from hemp vs. cannabis is the percent of THC in the plant.  If a plant contains less than .3% THC, its considered industrial hemp.  More recently, farmers have taken a big interest in growing cbd-rich industrial hemp so seed breeders are producing varietals of industrial hemp plants that are high in CBD (cannabidiol) and low (below 0.3%) in THC.  CBD flower Dispensaries like Lions Den Royal Smoke LLC are at the forefront of the budding industry with years of investment into the research and development of producing only the highest quality cbd flower for sale.
