Production of THC in cannabis

THC (tetra-hydro-cannibol) is one of over 400 cannibols present in the cannabis plant and is responsible for the 'high' associated with smoking cannabis.

It is present in all cannabis plants, male and female but in varying quantities. Canabis with a low THC content will have a weak effect. The other cannibols present will be responsible for a heavy, sleepy stoned effect.

I saw the story in the papaer today but i didnt read it all.... the policemen said they could smell the canabis.... how many people would recognise the smell of it? there are other plants that smell a little canabis like as well..
 
But alcohol is also a natural product produced by yeast and sugar, many drugs are natural, unless you don't think poppies are natural.

You could leave a cannabis plant in the open and smoke it once complete and dried with no further processing, like a apple.

Well not as you'd notice Margaret, only when you see rooms and even warehouses set up as specialist growing rooms with heat lamps to assist with the growing process:D not to mention irrigation systems too:rolleyes:

Thats because its driven underground. They are not Heat lamps the are high powered sodium lights.

Excuse me for being thick Neil, but whats THC:confused:

Pharmacutical companies (the evil in our midst) will not let it happen because they are busy synthasising and patenting the chemicals in it, for sale at inflated prices to our cash strapped NHS, for pain relief for arthritis
 
ive never smoked an apple :D

Give it a Try.

Or dried Banana Skins. :D

Exactly and it would be hard to tax.

Im looking for changed laws, relating to possession & personal use cultivation.

The many people who say its bad dont really know anything about it.

I feel sorry for anybody who feels the need to take any substance just for kicks, its bad enough having to take prescribed drugs let alone illegals for fun:(
 
Many people need cannabis for pain relief and are being denied it.
Pain management is a notorously neglected part of our NHS.
When distalgestics were withdrawn from the prescription list, many people were offered nothing stronger than paracetemol.

It should be allowed for medicinal use - if it also makes a sick person happy at the same time why begrudge them that

Perscribed drugs I bet will be worse for you, the medical possabilities for cannabis are just being seen.
 
i try to take as little medication as possible, i prefer to use something more natural wherever possible, same with ty.. my uncle died because his body had built up a tolerance to his medication.
 
I believe in cannabis for medicine purposes, because its controlled, but people taking it just to 'chill out' is stupid!, it can make ya paranoid and some people i know who have took it look terrible in my opinion.
 
Maybe not, but whats that got to do with it.

BBC NEWS | Health | Doctors 'recommend cannabis use'

Not bad 45% say cannabis worked better than perscribed medicine.

Do a bit of googling on the uses of cannabis, you will see its not all that bad as some people make you believe.

Even Obamah Has a Opinion.:D
YouTube - Barack Obama on Marijuana Decriminalization (2004)
Well the thing is Mr. D. I take prescription pain killers, probably the strongest you can get outside hospital, but cannabis wouldn't be any good for me as being chronic asthmatic smoking anything is a no no.
 
There are convincing arguments from both sides of the legalising cannabis fence.
Medical use has been promoted for a number of years for conditions such as MS.
I have very limited experience of its medical use so would prefer to comment on the aspect I do have experience of which is social use.

The experts against legalising/non criminalising it tell us that it is addictive, causes paranoia, leads to the use of more powerful substances and turns people into social degenerates.
Smoked in small quantities, cannabis can be enjoyed as a recreational drug and the user suffers no after effects at all. It isn't addictive and does not automatically make the user want to try something stronger. It invokes a state of mild contentment and a feeling of extreme well being. In that respect, it is just the same as alcohol which when taken responsibly, creates a very pleasant atmosphere and causes the user no after effects at all, except in the case of alcohol a hangover the following day.

On the other hand, over use of cannabis does cause mental anxiety and can trigger some very serious mental problems. Smoked in large quantities, it is a very dangerous substance indeed.

Most cannabis smokers and alcohol drinkers take their chosen substance in controlled quantities and having enjoyed the effects, return back to their normal mental state and carry on with their lives.

Heavy smokers and heavy drinkers on the other hand, just don't know when to stop. Binge drinkers will quite happily drink themselves into oblivion and try the fight with the rest of the world on the way to the kebab shop after a session.
Heavy smokers will exceed the feeling of contentment and enter a state of near unconciousness. In the same way that excessive alcohol can damage vital organs of the body, cannabis too can damage the body, particularly the brain. Small amounts of cannabis have little, long term, effect on the brain but increased use can severely affect shorth term memory and induce paranoia.
The Government seem to have a strange attitude towards what we as the general public are and are not allowed to do. They make laws preventing us from using harmful substances such as cannabis yet allow the purchase of other, far more dangerous things such as Alcohol and Fireworks to be perfectly acceptable.
I respect the wishes of people who do not wish to smoke cannabis in the same way that people can choose not to drink alcohol or eat meat etc. but I do object to not being allowed to make a choice.

Just for the record, I would not even consider taking any of the white powders and mysterious tablets which are available these days, common sense tells me that they could contain anything. I have also seen first hand how such substances can turn coherent human beings into non functioning zombies in an alarmingly short time.
