RE: THE ONLY PLANT THAT CAN SAVE MOTHER EARTH - GANJA MON!

in #marijuana7 years ago

Cannabis has been used for centuries as a way to help medicinally. I don't know why as of recently there is such a negative stigma around it despite the fact of all its great health benefits.

I've seen some documentaries on this so called 'war on drugs' where as you said armies go out into rural areas and start to destroy huge crops of these plants which do no harm.

At least support for cannabis is rising and hopefully we will go back to using natural medicine rather than using all these chemicals and harmful things that have side effects.

A pretty entertaining video @surfyogi. It is great to see people going out and visiting crops and how much love and passion these people have for original natural marijuana

Great comment!
One thing I noticed; the Jamaicans are now growing Euro hybrid strains. They didn't have a landrace as good as Columbia nearby, but their culture is so open to new ideas, they quickly learned from visiting Euros that the hybrid strains grow twice as fast! They obviously appreciate all the benefits, including less time for mold to affect the plants..

So they were saying; they prefer to grow the hybrids, and they replant after several years, new seeds to get new strains from Europe. It's fairly technical; pot farming is the most rigorous in terms of technology: hybrid selection; keeping different strain crops separate, avoiding fertilization from male plants, and on and on.

This video shows several different farming situations; one which is actually more like hydroponics, in a swamp area. Another growing in old coral deposits near the ocean. Another small valley used as a seed bank to preserve genetics.

I have visited Jamaica in the 1980s, and it was so quiet, people were very nice to me. I recommend anyone go to Jamaica and learn about their spiritual views of this plant.
