Only an idiot would want it regulated like deadly destructive alcohol !

Well, reading your post is one of the most uncanny things I’ve ever experienced…I felt as though I was reading my own writing…knowing that I had not written it…right down to getting ” Rocky Mountain head waters that collect in Stanley Lake during the spring thaw”. (We must live fairly close)

 I have a southeasterly exposure so the girls get sun-up until approx. 3PM…they love it…started them first of June on my deck, attempting to avoid foul weather  (farming?) just did miss the hail storm that came through late May …

I use all organic…water weekly/feed every other week…3 Indi and 3 Sati…yield was a bit less than yours…1.75 lbs of dry/ cure…but, Oh my goodness!

Started harvesting and drying on 9/11 and finished around mid October.

Being of “old school”, I camouflage with other vegetables and plants…I bend the plant to shorten the height in an attempt of concealment. Otherwise, they could be publicly exposed.  This way, not even my neighbors know…

I too am registered and posses a red card…but no way with the test tube babies…feels like paper, bouquets good, taste good, but not much medicine content.

I too have grown in the great Northwest as well as Southern CA…I too am native to CO…3rd generation…I have enjoyed success in those regions of the country…but when it comes right down to it…I am glad to be home!

This is the way I like to grow…there might be a better way, but at least I understand the terminology and don’t have to shell out the bucks to try and duplicate the sun.

Hopefully this will serve to underline what JC mentioned in his post.

Wishing all a great harvest on your future grow.

Perhaps GW pharma, or their partner in charge of US distribution (in the future), Otsuka Global, will just buy out Centenial seed company and end all of its liabilities and securities as a means to continue their monopoly. These people are the only company in the world allowed to do what they are doing, which is illegal in most countries (both through cannabis prohibition AND securities laws against monopolies). Their lobbyist was the former deputy drug czar under Bush jr, and one of their main partners is Bayer, who is linked at the hip with Monsanto (who owns BlackwaterUSA). Billionaire George Soros, main shareholder of Monsanto, is funding legaization movements, not because he has any moral obligation, but because he stands to gain billions more from the future emerging cannabis market, both industrial and medicinal. THIS is how capitalism works, and it is not a free market.

GW pharma and its sativex garbage, which is just cannabis suspended in liquid, is nothing but a world wide scam that will allow the government to control the medicinal cannabis market, and also any future recreational cannabis market. The reason they won’t budge on legalization at the federal level is because the government is wholly owned by industry such as pharma, prison, military contractors, and alcohol/tobacco; these industry stand to gain trillions in dollars from how the federal government chooses to approach cannabis, and it doesn’t take a brilliant mind to see that these industries are pulling the governments strings like a puppet.

Is that what we call democracy? Pathetic.
