Despite the confusion surrounding its legal status, CBD ‘hemp’ flower is becoming very popular in the UK.
The demand for so-called ‘hemp buds’ has been relentless since it first made its way over from those green-fingered Swiss breeders. And while the market started out mostly online, high-grade hemp flower can now be bought at vape shops and head shops in most towns and cities.
Consumers are saying the low-THC cannabis is a miracle when it comes to anxiety, obliterating it in just a few puffs of a joint or vaporiser, or even brewed in a cup of tea.
Many people also use it to stop smoking cigarettes and tobacco, claiming it seamlessly replaces tobacco in their life and even makes withdrawal a doddle. People also make use of CBD-rich cannabis to reduce their use of THC-rich cannabis.
