Just wondering about something, I recall a loooooong time ago, and I may be totally mistaken, that there was some reaseach done into either comparative deteriorative effects of alcohol and other drugs whilst driving, or it was something on the relative IQ's of smokers to drinkers... or something to that effect... not very precise eh? How about I just word it as a question... Have there been any studies into the IQ levels of long term, medium term and short term users of cannabis as compared to those who use no recreational drugs and long term, medium term and short term users of alcohol? I'm interested because of there is a lot of anectodal evidence that cannabis use i…

Authors Stepanov GS. Sytnik VP. Title [ineffectiveness of the back cross method in selecting hemp for heterosis]. [Russian] Source Tsitologiia i Genetika. 12(5):424-7, 1978 Sep-Oct. Abstract In the back crossings the heretability caused by the additive effect of the genes predominates. The selection on the characters controlled by the additive genes leads to the homozygosis increase of the population and to the reduced vitality of the plants. The repeated crossing of the heterozygous hybrid plants with the parental form homozygous according to the recessive gene increases the quota of the genes of the latter. It results in the intermediate type of inheritance for al…

Any1 seen any similar research from oz growers. Authors Pitts JE. Neal JD. Gough TA. Institution Laboratory of the Government Chemist, Teddington, UK. Title Some features of Cannabis plants grown in the United Kingdom from seeds of known origin. Source Journal of Pharmacy & Pharmacology. 44(12):947-51, 1992 Dec. Abstract The cannabinoid content of UK-grown plants (up to the 6th generation) from Moroccan, Sri Lankan and Zambian seedstock was determined by TLC, GLC and HPLC. All plants from the 5th and 6th series resembled their parents, and UK-grown plants were always much greener than those grown overseas. Cannabinoid content remained broadly typical of the so…

Hallo, dear members. I have been doing some research on the net and other sources, which is primarily involved with a very intimate problem of mine. Info, that I found can be interpreted very differently, therefore I have decided to post this message and ask people who actually smoke for a piece of advice. My question is very simple: does continuous smoking up (every day during more or less 8 years) effect your sexuality (if you are a guy) and if it does, than how exactly? Thank you very much for your reactions

Well its bound to happen soon, genetically modified cannabis, monsanto are probably working on removing the genes for THC prodution for commercial hemp crops. So what do you guys think of GM marijuana?? Imagine it, it really could make the cannabis of the future 25x more potent than the cannabis of the past. Valuable medicinal strains could be made that have very specific cannaboid ratios, and strains that produce that THCV shit that SA sativas have. They could make strains which grow no head leaf, and only require fan leaf removal to manicure. They could probably make high yielding, no stretch indicas with full on sativa style high's. White decorative cannabis with l…

CANNABIS LUNG CLEANER AND EXPECTORANT Cannabis is the best natural expectorant to clear the human lungs of smog, dust and the phlegm associated with tobacco use. Marijuana smoke effectively dilates the airways of the lungs, the bronchi, opening them to allow more oxygen into the lungs. It is also the best natural dilator of the tiny airways of the lungs, the bronchial tubes - making cannabis the best overall bronchial dilator for 80% of the population (the remaining 20% sometimes show minor negative reactions). (See section on asthma - a disease that closes these passages in spasms - UCLA Tashkin studies, 1969-97; U.S. Costa Rican, 1980-82; Jamaican studies 1969-74, 76…

Marijuana Can Control Epilepsy, VCU Study Finds September 30, 2003 at 12:48:31 PT Source: Richmond.com Ingredients in marijuana and the cannabinoid receptor protein, which is produced naturally in the body to regulate the central nervous system and other bodily functions, play a critical role in controlling spontaneous seizures in epilepsy, according to a new study by Virginia Commonwealth University researchers. The study, the first to look at marijuana and the brain's cannabinoid system in live animals with spontaneous, recurrent seizures, suggests new avenues that researchers can explore in their search for more-effective drugs to treat epileptic patients who don't …
