Well actually marijuana and cannabis as you all most probably know are the same thing but we have I brought up this topic? It is quite interesting to see just who uses the word marijuana and who calls it predominanlty cannabis and to test this we are going to use Google news as an indicator.
A simple search for news on the word cannabis brings up all the entries from the UK and a news search for the term marijuana brings up all entries from the USA. So although cannabis has various names each name seems to have a popular use in different countries.
I was just looking at some other marijuana sites I have and cam across a pretty interesting video on cannabis and the has trade in Morocco. Outside of US California this must be the next biggest hub for naturally grown marijuana. This video looks at the cultivation of marijuana and the main production of hash including interactive interviews with local Moroccan marijuana growers.
