It’s a plant. Plants should be legal to grow. Maybe sometimes you will have to take steps if you want to grow it and it’s an invasive plant, but it’s still a fucking plant.
I use cannabis medicinally, and it’s true that I would prefer to vaporize it (I don’t smoke) when I use it than take some sort of pill. Because it gives me very fast pain relief. I’m sure if inhaling ibuprofen worked much faster than taking a pill, people would do that too.
I also smoke it (I don’t vaporize) medicinally for my leg and I can go from “literally can’t stand up” to “pretty much fine” in like 4 tokes, it’s amazing 👍
But one of the side effects I’ve been experiencing lately is that I’m always having a great time, which some people really seem to have a problem with 🤔 I can’t figure it out.
I can’t help but say commodity cannabis ruined weed though. Dudes should be growing it in their back yards and sharing it freely with their dawgs, not paying $300 an ounce at a dispensary that feels like the DMV. The cannabis industry MUST be deregulated.
$300 an ounce at a dispensary
Damn. Living in Michigan is pretty great on this front. Weed is dirt cheap at dispensaries here.
Our supply is kept artificially low by overregulation. You need something like a million dollars in liquid money to get the permits to grow commercially and they only give out a handful of licenses per year, ensuring that the rich get richer and everyone else gets fleeced. Still better than Iowa where “any amount” leads to jail time.
the point of dispensaries is to not have a product grown in a backyard that is lab tested
does anyone here not remember the before times?
also would you buy your lettuce from Earl on the corner or from the store?
what is the quality of the soil in these backyards

Is Michigan one of the states that they can’t ship hemp to? I didn’t think it was on the list. Eight horses hemp, flow gardens, hoku seed company… There’s a ton of legal weed out there that’s very reasonably priced.
I’m in Illinois so I’m not super familiar, but although hemp is better than nothing it’s definitely not the same
We can only grow in Illinois with a valid medical card, otherwise it’s a $200 ticket. The police union fought back when they wanted to let everyone grow.
