Cannabis is a plant loved and enjoyed in almost every country, with its roots in the Far East, India, and central Asia. The herb is known all over the world, with unique and potent varieties stemming from many different regions. One of the countries in which the plant has seen the most development and transformation is the United States. Here, the culture and the legal system has embraced the plant. Some state governments have legalised cannabis for medicinal and/or recreational use, a move that has led to the rise of intensive breeding and million dollar markets.When it comes to American cannabis, homage is due—this is a list of the top 10 cannabis strains born out of America.
