THC Cannabis and Non-THC Cannabis: Differences

THC Cannabis – contains the same amount of various cannabinoids as non-THC cannabis, but in different concentrations. The largest and most important difference is in the cannabinoid THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), whose content in this type of cannabis is above 0.3% in the plant or dried form. In the Czech Republic, only patients prescribed this treatment by an authorized physician may legally use this type of cannabis. Legislation may vary in each country. THC is a psychoactive cannabinoid that affects the user's perception and behavior.

Non-THC Cannabis (CBD varieties) – also called "medical cannabis", "industrial cannabis" or "technical cannabis". The content of psychoactive cannabinoid THC is below 0.3% in this case, which makes this type of cannabis legal in the Czech Republic, where it can be traded, grown, dried, and used without penalty. Legislation may differ in other countries. Typically, this type is rich in the cannabinoid known by the abbreviation CBD (cannabidiol). Since there is practically an absence of psychoactive THC, medical cannabis does not influence a person's behavior or perception. On the contrary, you may encounter a range of positive properties that are often used in medicine.
