But there is another key reason that Kentucky hemp-derived CBD oil is superior. Kentucky’s hemp farms are situated along the 37th parallel. On the other side of the world, the same latitude line runs through the Hindu Kush mountains. The Hindu Kush is a rugged, rocky region at the border of Afghanistan and Pakistan, where all indica strains of cannabis originated. That means that Kentucky’s light cycles are same as those in the Hindu Kush, which makes them perfect for cannabis. But while the Hindu Kush is rugged and barren, Kentucky hemp farms are one of the world’s most welcoming agricultural microclimates. That begins to explain why so many CBD brands claim that Kentucky is the home of their hemp crop. But that’s still not the only reason why Kentucky hemp is so special.
