– This was our mandate to the people of South Africa, and BOY, did they respond!
Others added “CBD is legal but not the real medically effective THC from the Cannabis plant which cured my migraines in 3 months after 40 years of liver damaging painkilling drugs from legal pharmacy” and “I'm also on CBD with THC for migraines. Was having migraines every 2 weeks, now only once in a while”.
It’s always great to see that people are slowly becoming educated and using Mother Cannabis to heal themselves.
“So for some it's ok to take drugs because it comes from the drugstore? But this natural herb is a problem? 😤 Some people!?! Just give us rights! Gods Earth this, not man's!”
“imagine telling god his plant is illegal 😤 those people who say it’s illegal will answer when their time crimes😁”
“wish people would educate themselves before they hit the keypad. Plenty of reading matter on Cannabis. Please read. Oh and hemp and cannabis one and two of the same plant.”
“How uneducated you are. Cannabis CBD oil is not addictive. No amount of cannabis can make you an addict. Continue in your ignorance. It's actually the safest medicine in the universe for that matter. When you start adding stuff to it, then it's a drug.”
Here is an example: “Dagga is Hemp, it doesn't intoxicate you it's Medication”
Sadly, others still have no clue, with comments like: “Hemp and marijuana same species but not the same? Either way both habit forming.”, while others can be quite impassioned in their ignorance or defence of the situation.
“It's a dangerous drug and you have a right to imprisonment if you use it it causes laziness and zero motivation to reach any goals and it makes you antisocial and it makes you a danger behind the wheel it also cause you to have temper tantrums and it leads to marital problems as it makes you to have affairs and it also makes you a bad cook and makes you prone to alcoholism and drug smuggling”
”Yeah follow the Nixon narrative and forget your own endocannabinoid system fellow human”
“really you must have first hand experience because I've been smoking for 20 years and I'm none of the above”
“perfect nothing wrong with some smuggling, Gets you all the hot Girls”
“It makes you a bad cook 🤣🤣🤣prone to alcoholism and drug smuggling" Where did you get your information from? Same place you smuggling drugs 😁”
“dear Lord....which planet are you living on in you idiocy? You've just commented the biggest lot of rubbish I've ever read 🤦🏽♂️🤣🤣”
So let me clear up a couple of simple misconceptions:
The full-spectrum, psychoactive affects you get are derived from the FLOWER of the cannabis plant. The flower has a very distinctive scent and flavour which distinguishes it.
CBD is derived from cannabis but has had most of the other compounds removed so that it contains none of the psychoactive qualities, but also loses a lot of benefits from the other removed compounds. You will not get high from taking CBD products. CBD isolate is ONLY the CBD.
Hemp is for production. Hemp cannot make you high. Hemp is used to make building materials, rope, textiles, plastic and many, many other things.
To demonise a plant like this is ignorance at its most dangerous.
“Please keep off the grass, other people want to smoke it.”

Cultivating An Industry
My mornings are a ritual – yoga, then a strong cup of coffee and quiet time in the garden pondering the mysteries of life. This morning I was pondering specifically the mystery of what I can call my religion – Coffee and Cannabis.

The Great Hemp Conspiracy
The insidious, near global criminalisation of the cultivation, possession and use of Hemp and Cannabis and any derivative or product thereof was not a new or isolated scheme. We can say as a certainty that three factors are common causes of the prohibition of this plant.

Over-Packaging
To some it’s no secret that the environmental legacy of the marijuana industry isn’t very pretty. Prohibition of cannabis and the failed War on Drugs has driven cultivation of cannabis indoors, driving energy-hungry artificial lighting to grow a plant that naturally thrives in the sun.

The Challenges of Social Media
It is an ever-evolving landscape. Social media control has long been a tiresome road for cannabis and hemp companies because of severe regulations. The social media giants’ “Community Guidelines” have a stranglehold on cannabis and hemp businesses ...

Vape - Organic or Convenient
There are times when a perfect combination of circumstances leads to the creation of something entirely new - something that’s a total game-changer. This being the case in the autumn of 2013, when an eager grower and hash-maker named William “Kind Bill” Fenger and ...
