Well, either you're using it as a taxonomical term or not. If you are, it should be capitalized and italicized (“Cannabis”). If you aren't, it shouldn't (“cannabis”), but I prefer “hemp” (for the plant in general) or “marijuana” (for its use as a drug specifically).

Well, either way it's just nitpicking. We ought to be arguing over the content, not the definition (or spelling) of a word.
