But every strain of hemp is less than 3% THC by what will be legal definition and that can be an extremely good thing growing Hemp for medical usage.. Hemp to me does not mean fiber exclusive uses, and of course like any strain not "every" plant type is the same for profile. So you disagree that hemp has medicinal applications becasue this Charetts web came from those conversations of hemp having medicinal value..
So you would argue that strains high in CBD, CBN and extremely low THC should be considered by law to be Marijuana? Seems like a play on words what definitions have taken meaning since the 1700's..
Thanks there is another side to my thinking and what i'm doing behind the scenes, with regards to Monsanto esq. companies. The industry of hemp is on the verge of a comeback and congress will act on that before MMJ IMHO, preservation of non GMO seeds of hemp is paramount.. Let me just say this, that we should all be loudly stating that hemp has medicnal value.. Monsanto has no cry against them for GMO Cotton, because nobody eats cotton or uses it as medicine. What is going to happen to the hemp fields when Monsanto rolls out the seed to farmers and pollen drift occurs?You've got your work cut out for you azmmj. From my perspective available strains with high CBD have been cultivated(discovered) through medicinal THC rich Cannabis...and not so much through Industry Hemp. But a loophole that could very well prove worthy to take advantage of. Great luck in your ventures.

Yes..but I highly doubt they have unlocked a way to produce consistent profiles through gene manipulation yet..or have they? Also, not all farmer's have conceded to Monsanto seed. The way to grow CBD Hemp would be to clone the shit out of some Mom's..like some of the guys I saw an article in CO..the first Hemp Fields!..they were cloning heirloom Hemp.Sadly I believe a company "like monsanto" already has GMO seeds ready to ship to Kentucky, think about it, when Congress is done gettin new bed partners in the hemp industry and the green light is given, where is kentucky going to ge the seed from? Because I bet it will be there licked split. and perhaps a means to do us all in..
I fucking cheered when they showed that guy in Jerusalem stating he's cancer free. I take MMJ for pain, lots and lots of well documented pain for a congenital spinal condition and a automobile accident. most of my body has been under surgery and contains hardware., 6 years ago on top of that diagnosed with a benign tumor in T1 that I believe the result of surgeries or 2 solid years of eppidurals.Their crushed fan leaves were 8%. I dont fuckin think so.
The crushed leaves and that midgrade 36% thc bud was ridiculous. Other than that I think it was positive.
I wasnt expecting that program to be so tear-jerker. I made my mom and her husband watch it, my mom liked it but her husband was just poker faced the whole time. Not a word out of him for an hour, he knows I grow weed but I dont normally shove it in his face like that. He cried too, lol!
They just have to do what they already did with cotton, corn ect and let "open pollination" and birds re distributing their seeds and own their completions crops by way of patent infringement. Monsanto esq, companies don't need all the farmers to sign up, just a few and the trucks, birds, bees, wind , bugs do the rest.. In a few years there is a knock at the door with a summons, we have determined you plants have our gene in them.. Hell it could be a fish gene, roundup ready gene,, whatever gene they pull out of their hat. Hell maby they will plant crops upwind of seed growers lol.. Read Monsanto reply to the organics farmers suit that went to the supreme court that they have never sued any farmer over "their right" for cross pollination.. however many many farmers claim that is how their crops became "Monsatos crops"Yes..but I highly doubt they have unlocked a way to produce consistent profiles through gene manipulation yet..or have they? Also, not all farmer's have conceded to Monsanto seed. The way to grow CBD Hemp would be to clone the shit out of some Mom's..like some of the guys I saw an article in CO..the first Hemp Fields!..they were cloning heirloom Hemp.
Plus they will never be able to get rid of homegrown thc plants..ever ever ever.
and believe me when I say there is plenty of good research and personal experiences that suggest THC and CBD together are mighty healers!
In addition, I don't believe Hemp needs any Round-Up..lol.
Lastly, fuck monsanto!

I'm working on that as we speak, lucky for us, and I'm letting the cat out now, so consider this publishing.. We are the answer or I should say our methods of indoor cultivation are the answere to fighting GMO... Indoor grows scrubbing for pollen drift like we do for smell, gives a legal challenge to GMO companies that we are taking measures to secure our herloom seeds from "contamination" that is winnable IMHO in court..I agree..have heard stories and especially one in Canada (amongst so many others) where they sued and took the family farm. Holy Fuck! The trick would be to get your starin cloned and somehow she is infertile..that would be nice...but very hard to pull off without gene manipulation itself. For sure though hemp is starting back up..like you predict. Sure would be nice to draw some lines of our own.
Exactly seed indoors, pollen fence wont matter for birds pickin up seed and shitting them into your field.. Keep in mind all of the corn farmers 700 of them all claimed it was cross pollenation,, Monsanto claimed they stole seed... Monsanto is getting rid of itself, they have announced no new GMO plant modifications in Europe,, HOEWEVER, they have bought Fox Farm Nutes which should be telling,, there is now a flood of NEW GMO startups entering Europe.. Monsanto just paved the legal road and now the new players enter the arena..I love your ideas. Maybe we make our seed not in the fields and perhaps it may be fruitful to invent some 20'ft high no pollen fencing of some sort..not sure here. Or better yet..get rid of monsanto altogether or incapacitate their right to sue over nature.
God bless
Cloning isn't the way big industry will be doing this, it won't be cost effective, planting seeds just like my farming family does it by tractor will be the way.., Cloning will certainly be the way we do it for hemp strains of medicinal value but we better make sure no pollen drift occurs on any plants we plan on seeding out... Who would have thought corn would have been virtually destroyed ever ever ever since the 90's? Breeders better just breed indoors.. I predict 2 years heirloom seed companies will be out of business from law suits..
It doesn't matter if the plant needs the round up ready gene, could be a fish gene for all they care. so long as it's a reason to controll your crops make you close up your business and pay them their settlement. I wouldn't say ever ever ever.. With legalization comes a whole new beast.
exactly it's going to be a repeat of Corn pollen proliferating the air in corn country, virtually all of our corn is now GMO. I wouldn't put it past The DEA to get in bed with the GMO companies and dump pollen on our houses, lol hell if they would spary paraquat why not,, can you imajine a breeder getting complaints from his clients that Bubba is 10 feet tall and lost it's punch lol..Even if Monsanto doesn't play games with the genome, I think legalizing hemp in the US will force breeders indoors. All that hemp pollen flying around will ruin any breeding work being done outside...
I haven't seen it yet, been sick the past couple of days. Fortunately, my husband always has his thinkin' cap on and he recorded it for me. Hopefully I'll have time to watch it today before we leave for our next trip (yet another half marathon, this one out by Lassen).What I want to know is. Did anyone catch the part when he went to the University Of Mississippi, and the guy running this operation gave Sanjay a bud and said it was 36% THC? What strain was that and where do you find this :)
Ok, Az please double check your sources because much of what you have stated in your past few posts is either speculation or just not true. Fox Farm is NOT owned by Monsanto. I heard that rumor too, but I checked into it and found it was 100% false. Secondly, while there may be European companies that are working on GMOs the European governments are not friendly to their products at all. Europe has all but banned Monsanto seeds and is not friendly towards the company at all, and many other countries are following suit. European nations tend to appodt a mentality that things are not safe until they have been scientifically proven to be safe; the USA has seemingly adopted the opposite mentality, products are safe until proven harmful. Hopefully the countries that are trying to control the spread of GMOs will create safe havens for growing non modified crops. Third, while much of the corn grown in the USA is genetically modified, very little of that genetically modified corn makes it to our food products. I am not saying we are not eating GM corn or other foods, we most certainly are, but they are not always the foods we think they are. Let us not forget the first commercially available GM food was a tomato, a product which was pulled out of circulation by the end of the 90's.
On the topic of where to source hemp seed, there is Canada or Germany. Both countries have been growing high quality industrial hemp for years. These would be good sources of high quality genetics for industrial hemp until American farmers could create their own varieties.
But I have to say, I highly doubt the USA will allow industrial hemp before medical or recreational cannabis. Farmers in South Dakota have been trying to get legal permissions to grow industrial hemp for at least a decade and have had no success. This movement has had little public visibility or public support. There is little public outcry for industrial hemp production, even though it could save thousands of small farms that are otherwise failing across this country. However the issues of medical and recreational use of Cannabis is very visible to the American public and has widespread support. Even in this community there is surprisingly little vocal support for industrial hemp, we are also very caught up in the fight for medical or recreational support. So I personally do not see industrial hemp taking center stage, and it will simply be allowed once recreational use is. We must not forget the US government makes absolutely no distinction between industrial hemp and recreational or medical marijuana.
