New York And Medical Marijuana

Thursday, April 3rd, 2008

 

As most of the public in New York know, that the Rockefeller drug policies are just unfair and insane. Passed in 1973 at the urging of Gov. Nelson Rockefeller, New York’s Rockefeller drug laws established harsh mandatory sentences for people convicted of selling or possessing relatively small amounts of schedule I drugs(Marijuana, Cocaine, etc.) This “Drop the Rock” Campaign has been going on since the early 1990’s. The fall of Eliot Spitzer caused by his prostitution scandals, shines new light upon drug reform. Not only has this been a spending issue for the state, but also a widely known racial bias for the Blacks and Latinos. Now with a state budget, it is only right to reduce the spending of these harsh drug policies, and accept the truth that the “Drug War” is just wasteful. This can open the door to Medical Marijuana with the help of David Paterson. (more…)

Americas Request To Extradite Emery From Canada

Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008

Marc Emery, the West Coast marijuana advocate who faces a possible life sentence in America for opening a mail-order marijuana seed business out of his Vancouver headquarters. The Canadians are so angered by their own government for even considering extraditing emery over to the US to spend life in prison. His case settled to keep him in canada but now it is a different story. Not only the marijuana community, but the public as well is outraged. Many are against Emery due to the common brainwashed public believing marijuana to be a dangerous drug. They believe he is an evil man dealing drugs so they want the worst punishment for him.

Earlier this year Emery was able to arrange a plea bargain with U.S. prosecutors that would see him accept a 10-year sentence on their charges, of which he would serve half. Under the deal his co-accused colleagues would go free and Emery would serve (more…)

Strawberry Cough

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008


This is a very heavy sativa i got to counter the kush and it’s been doin me right in the mornings. Incense like aroma. Very piney taste. Overall great smoke, great strain. A very productive plant of high value as a medicinal herb. Bred for its euphoric, anti-anxiety high, this mostly sativa (approx. 75% Sativa 25% Indica) produces a comfortable and enjoyable, yet powerful, experience. The plants have long branches, making this beauty a great plant for “sea of green” gardens. The quality is in the experience. i would suggest this strain to any patient who is looking for something that will provide pain relief, as well with relief from sleeplessness, and also headaches. this is a very verstile strain. *STRAIN UPDATED

Hash Plant

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008
It’s difficult to pin-point a definitive smell to this bud. If it came down to it, I’d have to say it smells like a watered-down dollop of Heinz 57. Isn’t pleasant at all which makes me question why I bought this strain in the first place. Also, the looks aren’t very flattering, compact buds with minimal visible trichomes ( but their there).

The earthy flavor of the smoke left something to be desired, a taste similar to chlorophyll (a likely symptom of improper curing.) A good aspect about Hash Plant is its very resinous nature, so you know the end result will be just fine. The high is very nice. It starts in the chest area and gradually works its way up north. The stone lasts for more then a hour.

If you don’t like all that glitz and glamor with rock star buds like kush, then Hash Plant might be right for you. Although it’s over-priced, doesn’t taste very good, and is kind of malodorous; it tries to compensate in the effects department and does so admirably.

-Good body high
-Horrible taste/smell
-good to gain an appetite
