    a personal crop of hemp, don't excited. it's more tricks and confusion from this admin. the link in the article states:

    Under the new announcement, Category 5 narcotics will consist of poppy, magic mushroom and extract from all parts of cannabis or hemp with the tetrahydrocannabinol content of over 0.2% by weight. (TNA)

    Flowers are not an extract, so I am excited again. Of course it could very well lead to more disappointment in the near future, just like all the other announcements over the past 3 years.

    I was never that up to date, Moroccan zero zero

    Where I lived in the UK, there was only very low grade Morrocan available. Luckily, i discovered Skunk#1 in Amsterdam around 89. I can still remember vividly leaving the central coffeeshop in the dam absolutely blasted, thinking <deleted> have I just smoked this isn't pot. Turns out I loved it and was growing it a year later.

    Don't you mean Manali? 

     

    The stoneheads just sat outside the Freedom Cafe all day with their chilums. 

    The generalisation is right, continual use of ganja ma rs one a zombie and causes mental problems. 

     

    Nope, I meant Malana which is where the best charas comes from, or atleast used to. Manali used to be full of Israelis who had just finished their national service and was a tourist trap.

    As an alcoholic, did you go to Manali just to judge a few kids smoking chillums to make yourself feel superior ?

    The course will achieve standardisation of the product and legal compliance. The tourists that are to be attracted are those who may benefit from cannabis therapies that are not available or financially prohibitive in their own countries. Try stepping out from under that dark cloud sometime. 

    It sounds to me like you are an investor and dont really know anything about cannabis. Your rose tinted spectacles will get stepped on. They are promoting hemp and not medicinal cannabis which is a waste of time and money

    Hemp? Is that like Skunk? 

    don't know if that is a serious question or sarcasm but i'm sure many won't know .... atleast in UK, skunk became a common term for indica sativa hybrids(strong pot) in the mid-late 80's. Skunk #1 which along with Northern Lights and Haze were the first hybrids to hit the uk from Amsterdam (I think they all were originally developed in the US though).  After that any stinky weed became known as skunk. Of course the media made it out to be some evil brain damage strain. Anyway, "skunk" contains a decent ammout of THC and Hemp doesnt .

    So, it is your perception that is at fault here. The government programme which will allow the growth of cannabis will be strictly controlled. Growers will have to qualify by attending a course and having the proper facility for growing. The plants will be supplied from young plant stock specially bred for this purpose with less of the psychoactive content. Keeping it for personal medicinal use will not be allowed. This programme has been in planning for a number of years and it is hoped that cannabis therapy will be offered as an attraction for the tourist industry. So far a lot of money and time has gone into this but the pandemic has put things on the back burner somewhat. The strains of plants are being developed so that there will be consistency in the end product sold back to the supplying company. It will be then be further processed into products of medicinal value and supplied to clinics and other licenced facilities. 

    No, I dont think it is. Anyway the whole programme seems to have turned into somewhat of a joke and no tourist is going to be coming here for zero THC(CBD for that matter) sun leaf snacks even if they falsely advertise it as "ganja/channabis/marijuana".Glad I never invested in it!  A course to grow a plant is just another waste of time in my opinion. In the past, I grew for quite a few years and I would say like anything in life, you get better with experience, plus nowadays there is a mountain of information online. I don't see what a course will achieve, unless of course, you have to pay to go on it. My perception now is a massive opportunity is going to waste.

    Tuchel?! He's always reminded me of an extra from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. He better be able to crack the whip, because that looks like the current problem at Chelsea to me.

    I hope he does'nt crack it too hard or he'll break our soft scoop ice cream midfield and forwards. You can throw some of the defenders in there aswell.

    Whoever was responsible for the summer signings should have been sacked along with Lamps as far as i'm concerned.
