Hmm...Are you really being totally honest without a little wink? Certain plants will not go to seed. Even when it was legal, it was common knowledge the flowers would give you a nice buzz. I have no idea why it's an issue though, alcohol is far more destructive. The potential has already been shown regarding it's varied uses in industry and if a few growers isolate some females, oh well.

industrial hemp has very low THC. it wil give you a head aches or taste very nasty. the CBD and CBC have made the THC very low according the the level of industrial hemp , known as True Hemp.

If you boil it in milk,
it'll give you an incredibly strong high
when ingested. I've tried.

There is no THC in industrial hemp....further damaging the DEA's position on hemp...

Well Hemp contains like .03% THC... virtually no THC, but there is always a little there. Fact is, you can't get high, not only because of the low THC, but also because of the Higher CBD, which act's as an Anti-High chemical, as well as might give you a headache if u try to smoke it.

I meant there is no thc much in the sense that there is no opium in poppy seeds....there is some, but in trace levels....not enough to ban poopy seed bagels though...

What are we going to do about global warming?
Grow hemp. Hemp is a biomass champion at cleaning the air of the excess greenhouse gas CO2, burns four times more efficiently than corn as clean biofuel, and since it's wind and not bee pollinated, can serve as a back-up food source in case the bees don't return. Legalize hemp, tax it at 20% to help heal the earth from global warming. For more information check out HEMP FOR VICTORY: A GLOBAL WARMING SOLUTION by Richard M. Davis
