Sorry Rat...but this is from your own link:

Despite the prevalence of hemp cultivation in America, there was no known use of the flowers for intoxication except among field hands. In his address to a scientific meeting in 1943, Dr. J. Reichard said:

"Old persons in Kentucky report seeing colored field hands break up and load their pipes with dried flowering tops of the plants and smoke them." (34)


Smoking hemp is not the same as smoking pot. Smoking hemp is just a substitute for tobacco, without the THC.It is not the same as smoking pot.

And there is opinion that says sexing the plants was done to increase fiber production.
