Eletta Campana is a historic Italian variety, grown for centuries in Italy, especially in Campania. Eletta Campana is an Italian dioecious hemp variety, cultivated on the peninsula since ancient times. The plant reaches a size of 2.5 - 5 metres. The flowering period falls in August and September. CBD cannabinoid content is high, exceeding 6%, and the plant is also rich in terpenoids. Thanks to this, Eletta Campana is used for the production of CBD oils. Seeds can also be obtained from the hemp, from which dense hemp oil is pressed. This variety has also been developed for biomass production.
Cultivation of this hemp variety is possible both outdoors and indoors. The plant's leaves are light green, large, with an intense scent. The flowers grow densely and stand out for their intense aroma.
Thanks to the valuable support of CanaPuglia, a research project for the propagation of seed heritage was launched, thanks to which it has been available to interested farmers since 2015.
It is genetics developed for biomass production, but it gives satisfactory quantities also in terms of seeds and flowers.
This variety is characterized by late female flowering, which makes it suitable for cultivation in southern regions. Another morphological feature that clearly distinguishes this variety from similar ones is the size of the leaves, which turn out to have one of the largest blades.
