Hemp is cannabis grown specifically for industrial use and thus contains very low levels of cannabinoids (THC). The use of hemp dates back many thousands of years. Properly grown hemp has virtually no psychoactive (intoxicating) effects when consumed. With a relatively short growth cycle of 120 days, hemp is an efficient and economical crop for farmers to grow. Hemp is among one of the most productive and useful plants known; also very safe. The following materials can be made from hemp: paper, textiles, building materials, food, medicine, paint, detergent, varnish, oil, ink, and fuel. Unlike many crops, hemp can be grown in most locations and climates with only moderate water and fertilizer requirements. Where hemp is grown, it has become a valuable and environmentally friendly crop.
Poster Comment: Odd how many of our industrial problems can be alleviated with hemp. It's a good fuel source. I drive through the country all the time. I see corn all over the place, a lot of it sold for ethnanol. Hemp is a lot more efficient.

Hey - wouldn't growing hemp ruin a lot of sensimilia? (grin)
sensimilia? explain please. ;) welcome to 4, tzf
Thanks - I consider it my duty in life to be the best me that I can and just as important to help provide conditions that others can be the best that they can. I hope to be a good 4um citizen!
Well - Our governments could fight the production of high quality cannabis by promoting the cultivation of rope grade hemp which would pollinate those lonely female hybrid cannabis plants and thus cause ruin to sensimilia production. (grin)
Obviously you don't have a closet and a full-spectrum lightbulb.

Hey, you do have a point - but - I was hoping we could all just use sunlight. Al Gore might be interested in this topic.

It would be nice. Maybe someday.

I'm not 100% sure what 'sensimilia' means, but I think it referst to marijuana grown in a county in northern California. or it is an indoor breed grown indoors frequently in northrn cal originally. but the indoor weed can be grown anywhere. the term was origiginally referring to weed from northern cal. I don't know why. It was a green weed very high in quality.

sin = without, semillia = seed. Without seeds. The female product is artifically raised by various methods as to not seed very much and the reserve energy that would have gone to seeds boosts the THC content for some bio reason.
