Abstract

Cannabis sativus L. is an annual, deciduous, dimorphic, flowering plant that is distributed all over the world. Despite its tremendous and handy usage in medicinal and other areas, the cultivation, production, and trade of cannabis are illegal in most of the countries. It is so because of some of its harmful side effects on human health when consumed haphazardly or addictively. Following the declaration made by the UN Assembly, some countries, including the Republic of South Africa, Canada, Germany, Australia, Colombia, and Indonesia, have legalized the indoor cultivation and production of cannabis, as well as cannabis-based products. Cannabis can thrive in a wide range of climatic and ecological conditions. Cannabis can be propagated via seeds, cuttings, grafting, micropropagation, etc. The plants are mainly cultivated for their chemical constituents like tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabidiol, cannabinol, etc., which are extracted from their dried flowers. This study illustrates the production technology, current legal status, and botanical characteristics of Cannabis sativus.

综述了大麻的生产技术及其法律地位和植物学特征

大麻是一种一年生，落叶，二形，开花植物，分布在世界各地。尽管大麻在医药和其他领域用途广泛且方便，但在大多数国家，大麻的种植、生产和贸易都是非法的。这是因为它的一些有害的副作用，对人体健康时，随意或成瘾食用。继联合国大会发表声明后，南非共和国、加拿大、德国、澳大利亚、哥伦比亚和印度尼西亚等一些国家已将室内种植和生产大麻以及以大麻为基础的产品合法化。大麻可以在各种气候和生态条件下茁壮成长。大麻可以通过种子、插枝、嫁接、微繁等方式繁殖。该植物主要因其化学成分如四氢大麻酚(THC)、大麻二酚、大麻酚等而被种植，这些化学成分是从其干花中提取的。本文阐述了大麻的生产技术、法律现状和植物学特征。
