Yeah, MJ at PeakSeedsBC is super nice and helpful. He has, in my opinion, the best (by far) customer service in the industry. Not only is the service great, but the prices and product is superior to most. He genuinely cares about his customers and med patients. As you can see, I'm a huge...

If you don't feel like reading, just read the bold text (shortened version) I usually read as much as I can before posting, and I did, but I still need some help, so here it is: This year I decided to give organics a try, but first, a little history-- In the past when I've grown outdoors, I...

That's possible if it is true... But it wouldn't be worth it if you're running a perpetual harvest. Then those three days can add up. If you run about 6 harvests per year that would be about 20 or so days. That would be like a third of a harvest. Then after factoring electricity.. hmm.. Wouldn't...

Very interesting... I read that about the sun, as implied in the OP, but I never knew that about giving protection from animals.. Can you elaborate on that at all? Do the animals not like the taste and therefore they won't eat it and ruin the seeds? Or maybe that would be a good thing becasue...

Now, everything I'm going to write in this post is a result of me assuming and inferring things from common knowledge and also things I've read on forums like this. So here's my theory: I came across an older post and was reading where they got a little off subject and someone claimed that...

Ah, yes, the free market- Prop them up and give them deals. Nothing like good ol' crony capitalism.

Damn, I sure as hell am an influential person. JK- I know what you're saying- It's people with the same attitude as me that influence those things. I don't really agree with that. First of all you have to assume that politicians always do what their constituents want. It has been my experience...

I have many issues with much of what you're saying. But the one I will point out- "The ends do NOT justify the means, when the means go against your core principles"-- That might be the case in your view, but it's not exactly mine. You see, one of my core principles is to treat women and...

I should have also pointed out in the original post that the reason prohibition came to an end wasn't just because of the reform that happened when it was in effect- But also because of the great depression and jobs. I think it was FDR that said we can create jobs by opening breweries and people...

No I don't at all and I don't know where you would get that from because I never said anything like that. What I did say, however, was that I think that the organized crime that did come about because of Prohibition was bigger in our imagination that it was in real life. <- Something to that...

With the "yelling fire in a theater" example I was simply saying that our rights and liberties are not absolute. Meaning that along with many of our rights- such as consuming alcohol, they aren't absolute and that's all. We can regulate those rights if we choose to do so, and we have. During...

To expand the conversation a bit- or a lot- Should we allow Oil or Coal companies to come and drill our natural resources out from under us and make a tremendous profit from it? Aren't those resources "our" resources. Our meaning the nation as a whole- considering the land it's on, not private...

Your considerate views come as a sadly rare thing on this forum. It's unfortunate and a relief as they are appreciated. Yes you're right, there is the difference between use and abuse that must be understood. And it is very difficult to legislate issues such as alcohol and drugs. I can't really...

I think that this conversation is split among believers of climate change and nonbelievers of climate change. Of course there are exceptions, I'm sure. And I'm also sure that there are some that believe jobs are what we need and we should do that at all costs regarding climate change- Although...

Thanks for you input. Its interesting. What I'm not sure of is whether or not you agree with the idea that at that time alcohol abuse was not victim-less. Are you saying, yes it wasn't victim-less but we shouldn't infringe on what you see as our right to consume alcohol to prevent that? And that...
