Anonymous Coward User ID: 1216913 Slovenia 01/26/2011 09:34 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What you can make with the use of hemp... OK, first some ground rules of hemp...
-It does not need first grade soil... so the food can be still produed in the same amount as before, since you grow hemp in otherwise unusable soil. - It is a self sustainable plant, so all you need to do is throw the seeds in the soil and it will grow by it's own. -It does not need any kind of insecticides or pesticides beause of 2 reasons. the plant is the one of the strongest ones out there and it will smother any other violent plants that want to live by it. And the second the sextremely small dose of THC that is in the plant repell any and all insects. -It can survive even the hottest of summers and the worst draughts. -When you harvest hemp, you let it dry on the soil where it grew and it will give back to the soil 60%+ of the nutritional substances that it took to grow. -It grows at an incredible speed only rivaled by bamboo.
OK, I think that covers the basics of hemp growing.
Now for the usage of hemp....
-paper... yep, we don't need to cut all the trees in 3rd world countries to get the paper. And the paper is way more durable than wood paper. - eating oil.... hemp oil is the most healthy of oils (yes, even more so than olive oil and fish oil), sine it is rich in fatty acidc... and the ratio is exactly suited for humans. Omega 3:6:9.... ratio is 1:2:3 (ask any dietietic about the ratio, but don't tell him it is hemp, since they will likely tell you a different story if they know you are talking about hemp oil) -biodiesel... First Ford car ran on biodiesel from hemp. (today they say that oilseed rape is the best to make biodiesel, but the fact is it is the worst... oilseed rape is a very small and weak plant. You need 1st grade soil to cultivate it and you need to use huge amounts of insecticides and pesticides... and the amount of oil is almost the same as with hemp... and remember with hemp, you don't just get the oil, but way, way more... which we will get to shortly) -clothes... most durable of materials. -ropes -food -plastic... yep, 100 years ago they already had "plastic" bags which were biodegradeable... -hard plastic for cars and such -medication (in todays pills you get synthetic substances that mimic hemp, just because if you use hemp, you can't patent the medicine)
And much much more...
The only reason that it is ilegal is because it can not be patented and if people could grow it by themselves, the masters would lose a lot of their control and power.
Remember, about a 100 years ago, farmers in the US were bided by law to give 20% of their land for the cultivation of hemp. That changed about at the same time as the federal reserve was put into action.
it is a miracle plant.... |

Quoting: SoundlessdawnOf course, just grow sativa or indica.... I agree it is the best use for an individual. as for the civilization other uses are way more valuable as it holds the key to self sustainabilty. |

Most here know of the incredible versatility of the hemp/cannabis plant as a material of primary necessity. The real crime these days is that it has legal sanctions placed onto it and is verboten without legal writ. That is very stupid to do, but is done by greedy and corrupt officials and the economic interest groups whom they represent. |
