you never take over the counter drugs at all? how about prescription? personall i’d rather put an all-natural medicine in my body over one made by people in lab coats
From 1842 through the 1890s, extremely strong marijuana (then known as cannabis extractums) and hashish extracts, tinctures and elixirs were routinely the second and third most-used medicines in America for humans (from birth, through childhood, to old age) and in veterinary medicine until the 1920s and longer.
As stated earlier, for at least 3,000 years, prior to 1842, widely varying marijuana extracts (buds, leaves, roots, etc.) were the most commonly used and widely accepted medicines in the world for the majority of mankind’s illnesses.
The U.S. Pharmacopoeia indicated that cannabis should be used for treating such ailments as: fatigue, fits of coughing, rheumatism, asthma, delirium tremens, migraine headaches and the cramps and depressions associated with menstruation.

so well say you were smoking beaster or some other mid grade at 200 an ounce x7 days = 1400 a week. thats a lot of scratch to be spending on trees. how could you afford it? you must have grown your own and sold it to stay afloat. in which case you had to pay ungodly amounts for electric and nutrients plus the startup cost for your hydro/organic setupm if you were doing it indoor, thus escalating your 1400 to about 1550 weekly (well waive the startup costs of about 1g per 25 plants). outdoors is the same deal except you have to have quite a bit of property to conceal it. now with all that outgoing money you have to bring some in so you are seling some too. if your headstash is a Zip each day, you must be moving at least a twice that daily to break even. but then that doesn’t really work out either. your average yield on a nice indoor strain like Afghan is about 1oz each plant. so if you are killing off three of them daily and your harvests on on weekly cycles where you harvest 21 plants a week and each plant has a cycle of two months (thats a little short but i figure you have, at this point, enough knowledge to clone instead of starting from beans and they are already rootbound and flowering) you have 112 plants growing in cycles at any given time(again this number is derived on the premise that you are cloning females otherwise it would be much greater) so say you can hide your 112 plants from johnny law with no issue. now you cant just sell pot and not have a job that pays the bills to keep uncle sam in the dark. where did you find the time to do both? maybe im just being ignorant to something here? if i am clue me in :snky: because you had it made. it just doesnt seem to make sense is all im saying. mayyyyyyyyyybe pot really does have a bigger effect on your, uh… i forgot :gotme:
im not saying it isn’t possible. just unlikely and not very economical
This is all purely hypothetical knowledge coming from a benchbotonist. ive never seen this stuff i just watch alot of TV and read books and magazines.
lolwut? last time I was drinking with you we were walking around downtown Toronto in like 50 degree weather drinking BudLight out of foam cups and causing a ruckus out front of a few bars.
the problem here is attitude. people who dont smoke have the attitude that it is:
illegal
unhealthy
dirty
stupid
debilitating to the masses
and they will NEVER have their minds changed, unless they smoke, and they never will, so its a pointless fight.
NOW, ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COIN
pot does, IN SOME CASES, create apathy, lethargy and a straight out laziness
it is hard to not have ur short term memory affected, when you ARENT smoking, because most smokers dont spend much time, NOT SMOKING. so they do lose short term memory from being high all the time
to conclude, potheads will never be looked at as acceptable by those who dont accept pot. simply because they do no accept a significant portion of what they do.
as a former pothead(10X a day for almost 10 years) i can say that it is utterly ridiculous how people react to it/those who smoke. we as Americans like to pretend we are “forward thinkers” and “accepting” people when in actuality we are the farthest from it.
that was pretty spot on but the initial cost of hydro equipment. $100 and you could turn your house into a hydroponic den. minus the nutrients of coarse IF your using chemical nutrients. you would be surprised what you can get at home depot
