Industrial Hemp

Slow connection? Watch in lower quality
Nathaniel, Rhys and Yolanda share their passion for the nutritional and therapeutic benefits of growing, processing and using industrial hemp. Not to be confused with its `cousin` plant marijuana, licensed industrial hemp (in this case cannabis sativa) must be grown to contain a level of less than 0.2% THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) - the psychoactive constituent of cannabis. This versatile plant only takes 4 months to mature and the whole plant can be used - roots, stems, leaves, buds and seeds for food, clothing and supplements eg the fibres for fabric and the seeds for oils. The seeds are high in protein and contain a wide range of vitamins, minerals and essential amino acids eg health-promoting anti-oxidants and omega 3. The hemp we see here is produced on the South Downs but there are various varieties to suit different climates and soil conditions. http://www.vitalityhemp.com/ An Adliberate film http://www.adliberate.co.uk for WoodlandsTV http://www.woodlands.co.uk/tv

YOU drove past a growing hemp field and YOU almost crashed your car. What did the hemp do? It was YOU who looked and YOU who almost lost focus on how to control a 3000 lb vehicle, when out of control posed a threat to YOU and whoever happened to be on the road with YOU! It seems that once again, hemp is being blamed for the actions of a person!

It's about saving them and all that goes with the woodlands. It's about cultivating and using hemp instead of trees! Of course, we must not lose sight of the money hounds that would destroy the trees just to plant the hemp! Duh!

this video is intensely counter-productive. it does more to confirm the stereotypes of people spouting pseudo-science than to promote actual beneficial uses of hemp in a modern-day society.
