I am not taking a position on pot in my post, just saying alcohol is not a valid comparison. The President is a fink. |

I don't understand your response exactly however it seems to me you have responded with class and integrity and I assume you mean well. Sometimes I amaze myself, it seems to make sense when I'm typing a post out and if I review it fresh it still make sense and then sometimes I read it later and I too have a wtf moment? It seems to me a gift that an author can convey their meaning so well. As far as I know we are good. I have several of the symptoms but none of the reason. I regret that some of my responses are emotional and not as well thought out as they could have been. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

My front yard closer resembles Mt. Rushmore than alfalfa. [gravel but I get your point] Your front yard however [assuming you have one] is as close to corn or bananas [or wheat] as hemp is to sativa or endica for that matter. They are all related to grass. IMO, a hemp plant is a pot plant is a weed or grass or whatever. The only difference I think is the amount of thc in the plant. If hq plants were left alone in the wild they will revert to hemp. The male plants are eliminated for the thc cultivators and would serve as a high fibrous material as would the hq plants once the active parts are removed.

Except it's not a pot plant at all. You typed that whole encyclopedia entry making the case for pot plants being used for everything under the sun, just like the pot heads used to do in the 60's. Except it's an apples and bananas comparison. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

TheCesspit Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 23 Posts: 1929 | Hemp Plants for Rope or Pot are both Cannabis Satvia, the same species, just different cultivars. But like brocolli and cauliflower are both brassicas, so are the hemp plants cultivars a bit different in use and effect. I wouldn't grow hemp for smoking. Or pot to make your clothes out of. Lawn Grass and Wheat are just the same family. Not the same species. It is said that your life flashes before your eyes just before you die.... it's called Life |

Classically wrong. He thought the hemp he smoked was the same hemp Henry Ford made seats out of. Wrong hemp. This is a falsehood the stoners latched onto in the 60's, they thought the same thing. You can't make rope and clothes out of the hemp you smoke. Well, I suppose you could, but it wouldn't be any good. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

You guessing, surmising or "supposing" appears to be as close as you are going to get to the facts. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

1nickelmiracle Member since: Mar 5, 2013 Threads: 24 Posts: 623 | Anyone who knows anything about pot knows this except for government. Wasn't it the case you could grow hemp, but the government wouldn't issue the permits required? |

No, I'm afraid you can't smoke the hemp they make rope out of. You could, but all you'd do is cough. No buzz. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
