The Cannabis Plant
Cannabis is a flowering plant with many utilitarian purposes: cannabis seeds can be used for food; its stalks can be used for paper, clothing, rope, and building materials; and its leaves, flowers, and roots can be used for medicinal purposes.
On the flowers or buds, you will notice trichomes which are originally developed to protect the plant against predators and the elements, these very small clear mushroom-shaped glands ooze very fragrant oils called Terpenes as well as the therapeutic cannabinoids like THC and CBD.
