Method of reducing cannabis plant matter
Improved methods for reducing whole plant Cannabis matter is provided. These various methods including reducing Cannabis plant matter to a nanoparticle powder. Reducing the particle size of Cannabis plant matter to a nano range difficult, and requires specific steps, as Cannabis plant matter is extremely sticky, and has a tendency to adhere and clump during the particle reduction size process. The whole Cannabis plant matter remains naturally green.
