IDK, in countries where industrial growing of (low-THC) hemp is a thing and hemp gets used for manufacturing products, it is not "higher quality paper at a lower price", it's still a niche product for specific uses (e.g. as cigarette paper) because it's not cheaper. IIRC growing/harvesting/processing of the fiber is quite similar to linen, and so the resulting product costs are comparable to linen cloth, not wood pulp paper; industrial hemp gets used in ropes and bags but gets only limited application as paper even if it's fully legal to try.
- rbanffy 5y agoHigh-THC cigarette paper would be a very successful product in a number of markets.
- netizen-936824 5y agoThere is almost no THC in hemp fiber to speak of. Any THC in papers would need to be added during manufacturing
- rbanffy 5y agoI'm very sure some enterprising person will think of a way to do it ;-)
- kasey_junk 5y agoYou can get thc infused rolling papers. But most of them create the paper traditionally or with nationally legal hemp, then infuse them with thc extracts from completely different plants. That is to say, there is no correlation with hemp paper and thc infused paper. They come from different plants and as a consumer you want them to because the different plants can be specialized to their purpose.
