5 interesting facts to celebrate Hemp History Week

It’s the 10th annual Hemp History Week!

Let’s take a moment to celebrate this monumental week in hemp history.

Hemp is one of the fastest growing plants

Hemp grows so fast, producers can usually get 2 harvests per year!

Cannabis takes care of unwanted weeds all by itself and grows incredibly fast: In three months time the stalks shoot up to four meters high and their leaves overshadow every competitor for a place in the sun in a very short time. The plant´s strong smell keeps parasites at bay, therefore pesticides and herbicides are not needed.
