Is marijuana a vegetable? fruit? or neither??

Question

veggies=no seeds, fruits=seeds

marijuana has seeds in it but its green?? im confused does it make it a vegetable?

Answer 1

The term fruit has different meanings depending on context. In botany, a fruit is the ripened ovary—together with seeds—of a flowering plant.
Vegetable is a culinary term which generally refers to an edible part of a plant. The definition is traditional rather than scientific and is somewhat arbitrary and subjective. All parts of herbaceous plants eaten as food by humans, whole or in part, are normally considered vegetables.
So marijuana is a vegetable if you eat it, as some people do.
I don't believe it is ever a fruit.

Answer 2

Marijuana is a flower that is unfertilized but if there are seeds then the flower has been fertilized. Flowers develop into fruits which are ripened ovaries. The fruit of a weed plant is most likely an achene, which is a one seeded fruit with some type of seed coat. Vegetables are used botanically, as asparagus for an example. The asparagus stalk is a vegetative form of the plant, therefore many botanists will speak of this part of the plant as a vegetable.

Technically it is a fruit, however, we view it as a vegetable because it is not sweet like fruit. Avocados are fruits too! So is my cousin, but that's a whole other question...

Answer 5

Botanically speaking, buds could be considered fruit, if they contain seeds. The rest of the plant would be considered vegetables. This is according to the official botanical definitions. It certainly is not a drug, according to scientific truth. It only exist as a drug in propaganda pushed by the government, law, and medical establishments.

They both are Just the thing for your health. If you eat both, you're better off. But yea, I had choose fruits because they taste better.

Answer 7

It will depend on the fruit or veg associated with a comparison. In the event that you compare a farrenheit to a carrot, the carrot is the better of the two nutritional. When you compare an avocado to the carrot, then an avocado is better. Equally the apple and avocado, are fruits.

Answer 8

Your veggies=no seeds line is flawed. Botanically, there is no such thing as a vegetable; peppers, tomatos, zuchinni are all fruits and vegetables at the same time. I am assuming that marijuana ("bud") is unfertilized flowers, "shake" =leaves

Answer 9

It's a leaf. Maybe an herb, not a fruit or vegetable.

Answer 10

Isn't it an herb?
