One of the most powerful CBD flowers in our collection and a true source of our pride is Flower Power.
By choosing a name for this special CBD flower we were inspired by the power and incredible potential of cannabis.
As many of us know, Henry Ford founded one of the most important car manufacturers in 1903: the Ford Motor Company.
Very few, however, know that the inventor designed a car made mainly of biodegradable cellulose fibers derived from hemp, sisal and wheat straw and fuelled (hear! hear!) by hemp ethanol. Thus, the first ecological car came to light: the Hemp Body Car.
In an interview given to The New York Times in 1925 (16 years before the car came to life) Henry Ford said: “The fuel of the future is going to come from fruit like that sumach out by the road, or from apples, weeds, sawdust — almost anything. There is fuel in every bit of vegetable matter that can be fermented. There’s enough alcohol in one year’s yield of an acre of potatoes to drive the machinery necessary to cultivate the fields for a hundred years.”
The great novelty of this “green car” of 1941 consisted in the fuel: the Hemp Body Car was in fact powered by distilled hemp, which polluting impact was zero.
After 70 years, the homonymous car manufacturer is carrying on the basic idea of its founding father, putting on the market a car fuelled by bioethanol with a low CO2-content.
What can we say? Full throttle! Oops… Full hemp ahead!
