But We just need to recruit more followers to get behind 577.

The only time I ever smoked good was when I was in Cullowee.

Cool thanks for sharing the vibe from N.C.

I remember landing in S.C. I think in 1982 coming back from Germany.
There was high humidity to deal with. That in itself may lead to airy bud.

Still winter cold and indoor should be right to grow AAA.
Something like a medium to heavy oil Sativa leaning strain comes to mind.

Dono.. What is the elevation?

My elevation is 826ft above sea level and yes it does get really humid in the summer time.

Airy bud, what does that mean??

Airy bud is colas that spread open to deal with the humidity.

Just trying to be helpful.

I'm near Raleigh.

This might be the ONLY good thing coming from all the liberals moving here from NY state and Boston, and they are flooding in here. They don't seem to have learned the lesson that voting for the Democrat agenda is what made it too unaffordable for them to stay in their own state, but at least they are more open to some amount of legalization than the bible thumpers.

We pay about $60 a 1/4 for dirt weed most of you wouldn't even consider. Every once in awhile something resembling mids pops up at about $125 a 1/4. The small grow in my sig produced bud that the smokers around here had never come close to. I had to beat them off with a stick to keep my stash.

Sell a Man some bud and he smokes for a day.
Legalize him to grow and we all smoke for life.

I don't know what challenges you guys have.

What is the political environment? In California growers face 3 years in prison.

What is it you guys face?

I have absolute no idea, kinda scared to find out,
Kevin this is rather odd that you would like to talk NORML and you have no clue.

My question was an effort to keep the conversation cycling.

(N.C.G.S. 90-95 as of 2/05/07)
Conditional release: The state allows conditional release or alternative or diversion sentencing for people facing their first prosecutions. Usually, conditional release lets a person opt for probation rather than trial. After successfully completing probation, the individual's criminal record does not reflect the charge.
Decriminalization: The state has decriminalized marijuana to some degree. Typically, decriminalization means no prison time or criminal record for first-time possession of a small amount for personal consumption. The conduct is treated like a minor traffic violation.
Hemp: This state has an active hemp industry or has authorized research. Hemp is a distinct variety of the plant species cannabis sativa L. that contains minimal (less than 1%) amounts of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the primary psychoactive ingredient in marijuana. Various parts of the plant can be utilized in the making of textiles, paper, paints, clothing, plastics, cosmetics, foodstuffs, insulation, animal feed, and other products. For more information see NORML's Industrial Use section.
Drugged driving: This state has a zero tolerance per se drugged driving law enacted. In their strictest form, these laws forbid drivers from operating a motor vehicle if they have any detectable level of an illicit drug or drug metabolite (i.e., compounds produced from chemical changes of a drug in the body, but not necessarily psychoactive themselves) present in their bodily fluids. For more information, see NORML's Drugged Driving (DUID) report.
Marijuana tax stamps: This state has a marijuana tax stamp law enacted. This law mandates that those who possess marijuana are legally required to purchase and affix state-issued stamps onto his or her contraband. Failure to do so may result in a fine and/or criminal sanction. For more information, see NORML's report Marijuana Tax Stamp Laws And Penalties .

Thanks man. I just started learning about NORML.

Last night at 5am I was pretty tired and baked and researching LST'ing all night, my eyes just got a little tired from looking at the computer screen for 7hours. Man that LST'ing is simply amazing!! Any ways, Hope I didnt upset you much and Im sorry if I made myself sound like a fool for not knowing NC political environment on cannabis. Recently I just smoked to get high and hang out with all my buddies, never really thought about what happened if I got caught.

Then I started reading alot on RIU and watching documentary after documentary on Netflix and I grew interested in the Legalization of medical cannabis. Next time ill do my research before posting stoopid comments. Thanks for looking that info up for me, much appreciated.

Maybe you should give me a homework assignment, to prove myself. Teacher.

Oh, Thanks for cluing me in.

No hostility to Cannabis people here.

I went LCD a few years ago.. Remember the CRT is shooting you with electrons.

I'd defend your right to have a private Garden and a private experience in growing and consuming Cannabis.

Welcome to a larger cycle to your own.

To give you a simple history of myself. I am an Organic gardener. I stress the Organic side of all growing politics.

Kevin, We need to read what your part of the world is like so we can balance our perspectives better.
