A very interesting read.

Yikes they were using systemics and said that they only lasted 7 days. They sure had us believing a lot of untruths in those days.

I lost a article regarding the Boy Scouts cannabis growing guide,circa 1911.It was mainly for hemp cultivation.It was a merit badge item.

When I was in high school, a kid got caught growing it and he told his mother is was a rope making project.
OK son.

Fwiw sunlight degrades cannabinoids in harvested flower. It will turn thc or cbd into cbn, another cannibinoid that mostly just makes you sleepy.
