SA gangs growing super strength cannabis
NEWS.com.au – May 25, 2007
Customs said the strain, known as BC Bud, has a THC level of 30 per cent compared to about 4 per cent in common strains. The amount of THC determines the potency and effect of cannabis. Australian police estimate the yield as being five to seven times more than outdoor cannabis. A single plant can produce 24 ounces with a much shorter cultivation time than other hydroponically grown strains. The number of Asian-operated hydroponic cannabis grow-houses dramatically increased in NSW between 2002 and 2006 after starting in South Australia. NSW introduced specific legislation and police operations to successfully combat the problem.
What happens when your rental property becomes a ‘grow-op’?
San Francisco Chronicle – May 25, 2007
If my husband hadn’t been a contractor — the damage they did would have cost us $25,000 or more. ” In the pantheon of real estate nightmares, finding that your home or apartment has been turned into a marijuana “grow room” should qualify any landlord for a seat at the head of the table. Yet as medical marijuana laws have spawned a population of legitimate customers seeking respite from chronic illnesses, and police forces increasingly crack down on outdoor farms, more marijuana operations are going undercover in a residential neighborhood near you. With new high-powered sun-spectrum lighting, new ventilation systems and seeds adapted to interior growth, grow rooms are springing up everywhere — in rural country cabins, suburban tract homes and urban apartments. Complicating the issue is that laws relating to pot growing tend to dwell in a gray zone between county, city, state and federal jurisdictions. The federal government still maintains that growing, using and distributing marijuana is a crime, despite the fact that many states have adopted medical marijuana laws. Even within medical marijuana states where card-carrying members are legally allowed to grow pot for their own use, the shades of gray vary, depending on the local government’s interpretation of how many plants or pounds of product constitute acceptable personal use… Complicating the issue is that laws relating to pot growing tend to dwell in a gray zone between county, city, state and federal jurisdictions.

Even within medical marijuana states where card-carrying members are legally allowed to grow pot for their own use, the shades of gray vary, depending on the local government’s interpretation of how many plants or pounds of product constitute acceptable personal use. What’s more, some local governments — like Ukiah — have prohibited outdoor growing, indirectly encouraging more indoor growing. “It’s not a moral issue for most landlords,” says Janan New, executive director of the San Francisco Apartment Association. “But it puts the landlord in a difficult place. ” She says that she had a colleague who discovered that his tenant had turned an apartment in San Francisco into a grow room after the Department of Building Inspection cited the landlord for illegal wiring.

Legalizing Medical Marijuana
WILX-TV – May 25, 2007
Marinol is currently the only prescription drug on the market similar to marijuana. “There’s been talks saying that Marinol, being only one of the 66 cannabinoids in the marijuana, it’s not as effective as the natural compound and there’s more side effects associated,” explains Ingham Regional Medical Center pharmacist Deon Johnstone. Marijuana is used to relieve symptoms of illnesses like AIDS, cancer, and multiple sclerosis. So far twelve state have made it medically legal. If enough signatures are obtained, the issue could be put on Michigan’s ballot in November of next year. It would allow users to grow their own plants and be in possession of two and half ounces at a time. “Permitting people to grow it who have a medical need, well then how do you control that? How do you monitor that? Who’s going to regulate? Where are they going to get the products from?” questions Johnstone.

s were willing to risk the wrath of the government by putting in writing a recommendation for cannabis in the treatment of say, depression, or lower back pain. People all over the state were calling cannabis clubs to report that their doctors—many of whom had expressed their approval of marijuana previously—would not give them a written “letter of diagnosis” entitling them to join a club. These people would very often be given the name and phone number of Tod Mikuriya. Thus Mikuriya became the doctor of last resort for thousands of California patients. He flew or drove with John Trapp to cities and towns around the state to preside at ad hoc clinics. “It’s one of the most satisfying experiences for me as a psychiatrist to be able to remove the stigma of criminality from an individual,” he said after testifying for an alcoholic Vietnam vet in 1998.

Keeping Hemp illegal only helps the Canadians get rich because they grow and sell it at a nice profit to the USA. I don’t know what nuts don’t know the difference between Hemp Fiber and safests drug on planet cannabis, but you sound like one of them. I own a hemp hat, but I don’t smoke it. Wake up and smell the pot, it might not be legal but it’s the most pouplar drug in the world. With over two million people in our prisons the drug war is a failure. Keeping Hemp fiber illegal only profits the foreign industiers while hurting our farmers and keeping the drug illegal only keeps the black growing which will sell anything to anybody, unlike the coffee shops in Holand… What is the lemon doing in the Styrofoam cup? I worry we are all being poisoned by the tiny amounts of plastics melted into our drinks. Why are we sitting back and allowing the federal government to mandate legislation when it has nothing to do with them? California and several other states have made marijuana legal for certain cases, but the federal government continues to assert their authority over the state. Marijuana is a cousin to hemp. Hemp can’t get you high. It is grown for its product potential. Many other countries import hemp products to the U.
