In California, there's no way he would have had that kind of interaction in a dispensary without having shown anyone his medical referral.

And why in the world would he recommend he take a sativa when he is already so obviously anxious and neurotic?

TONS of things cure cancer. All day, every day. Doctors have no clue what cancer is. All they can do is cut, burn, or poison and cross their fingers.

I didn't say Cannabis was THE cure. It is A cure used by thousands with amazing efficacy. Everyone is different.

Here's 60+ studies for your perusal if you insist on the superiority of western scientific research:

*promote a nice sativa blend

*promote banishment of legislators, lobbyists, or lackeys of dealers who support criminalization of medicinal marijuana, hemp, or any variety of cannabis sativa or cannabis Indica

>> ^dystopianfuturetoday:

Weed sometimes allows me to see the forest for the trees, politically speaking. It turns down the ego a couple of notches. Sativa more so than indica.


You haven't tried Hubba Bubba indica yet.

Weed sometimes allows me to see the forest for the trees, politically speaking. It turns down the ego a couple of notches. Sativa more so than indica.

I agree! Stay away from kush! ...I prefer sativas!

As a cat, I must say, this disgusts me!

I'm a Nepeta kind of cat.

I've never heard of Ageratina Adenophora.

On a serious note, this catweed they talk about in the video is in fact Nepeta, it is not Catweed native of Central America. Though i suspect it's a play on words, cat and weed commonly referred to as Cannabis Sativa.

I took the name of the plant catweed literally I guess.

I've had my papers for roughly 6 months now. You can literally drive 3 or 4 blocks in California and find a pot shop. Best hundred bucks I ever spent. The sheer number of strains, ranging in potency and graded by effect; no more head shops, it's all inclusive: sativa, indica, cush, hybrids, hash, hash bars (Venice Beach), vapes, bongs and thongs with leaf prints. I'm loving Cali right now.

On the other hand, pot makes me lazy, and I think most users will agree.


It depends on the weed. Sativa strains are very energetic and cerebral... they produce the exact opposite of laziness. Indica strains are the ones that tend to make people sit there doing nothing.

I had a pure Sativa strain a while back. It was one of the most motivating substances I have ingested. Even as a fairly experienced smoker at the time, I could not stop smiling on this stuff, nor could I sit still. I think I cleaned my entire house because of that weed. Unfortunately, I have not found the same quality of effect since then. =(

This has to be a parody...

Plus the others they said. Such a dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb PSA. I hope the people that made this are attacked by the (most assuredly) displaced insects that eat cannabis, since from watching this video they will be unstoppable lunatic killing machines till they get their fix* back. DEATH TO THE UP-ROOTERS!

*Warning: "Fixes" caused by delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol may in fact be nearly harmless usually causing short-term memory problems and short-term comprehension and perception changes in humans and provide a delicous meal for insects.

also, just in regards to the hemp part?

marijuana is cannabis sativa. every stoner knows that.
hemp is cannabis oglalas. different species.

we're the only industrialized nation to continue to ban industrial hemp.

even though one of the many things you can make with it, is plastics.
the other thing we currently use fucktons of oil to do.

and few are willing to mention that, because we know plastic is the only way we can afford most of what we have.

That may be a nicely formed apical cola, but thats not a massive pot plant. Some sativa strains with a long but productive growing season will top 14 feet with stem resembling a small tree.

Seriously.

>> ^drattus:
24 hours of light a day makes pot on steroids? Nope. It makes lots of leaves but no buds, little potency and little worth to anyone. Pot only flowers with about 12 hours of total darkness a night. Interrupt or cut it short and you screw the grow. They should have mentioned that somewhere too.
That was some of the most fantasy filled, fact free reporting I've seen on the subject in a while though I'll admit to not watching FOX, so maybe that explains it.


there we go, Alright, someone did there homework, thats why you don't work for fox.


PS, I have grown some pretty damn good marijuana outdoors, its all about the genetics and what th plant prefers. Some weed (mostly sativa) hates 24 hours a day, it stresses the strain out causes it to stretch,and turn hermaphrodite

Bidi, Bidi, Bidi, YES! YES! YES! Actually, here in Sliver City, er... Silver City, NM, cigarettes containing Clove are NOT legal. Some residents actually resort to hiding their clove Bidis in their Indica/Sativa stash to fool the Herb Police (O.K., just kidding about the "Herb Police").
