Hemp has been celebrated and vilified in equal measure over the centuries. It has fantastic properties for textiles and ropes, but it comes from the cannabis plant, so it arouses deep suspicion among some policymakers.

So is it really possible to convert it into graphene and diamond in a sustainable, environmentally friendly way?
