India: Images 95

What is this weed, which grows wild in the Parvati valley?
I am not 100% sure that this is what I think it is, because no one has ever pointed to the plant and told me "this is marijuana." But it looks a lot like what I see on t-shirts.
Parvati valley is known for its charas, and no wonder, as this stuff grows everywhere.
Pistils of tetrahydrocannabinol?
These are local Mandi guys. I don't know what they do besides smoke charas, as my Hindi is limited to 'how are you' and 'what's your name.'
