As a medical user, I really hope she will stick to this if elected. Trump is doing more “leave it up to the states” bullshit except specifically for Florida and no other state.

    Best way to get the young male vote to be honest. Isn’t this part of what made Ron Paul popular?

    In before it gets legalized federally and then some republican states start spouting states rights and continue to arrest people that are following the law.

      It’s a plant that grows in the ground, it’ll get about as corporatized as tomatoes. Meaning people will try, but they can’t really stop you from growing legal plants in your garden.

            It is but it doesn’t stop a massive corporate industry from growing around it as the original comment implied would happen with cannabis.

              I now see the angle you were taking in your comment.

              I read it as no one can stop you from growing it,

              And I believe you are saying corpos will mass commercialize it just.like tobacco.

              Thanks!

            Not in Australia! You’ll get a bigger fine for growing tobacco than cannabis. Reason: the government is losing taxes on the tobacco.

        It’s really easy to grow great weed in your closet, if you’re not worried about getting busted it gets even easier and cheaper not having to go as hardcore on smell and security

        Got a cheap LED board: 75

        Got 4 bottles of nutrients that last me ~4 harvests: 75

        Fabric pots: 15

        Coco Coir (reusable and lasts a long ass time), enough for 20 pots: 30

        Seeds: depends on your guy

        So long as you water and react properly to any nutrient issues you encounter you’ll get something better than a dispensary will sell you 9/10, and if you were to sell your plants proceeds for bottom-shelf prices you’d still make your money back with profit

        I FIM train and use a basic water/nutrient schedule and a timer to control my lights, get almost an oz a plant of absolute quality green damn near every time. I must emphasize, too: I’m a fucking idiot who barely knows what he’s doing, my brother is insane and gets RESULTS

          How long does it take for it to grow? I want to get into it, I just want to make sure I can grow enough to supply my demands without having to wait on it to grow.

            From seed to harvest it’s about 90 days, if you get an autoflowering Type it’ll likely tell you exactly how many days

            From harvest to trim I do about a day, then 3 weeks to a month of drying, and then a month in a jar to stew before it’s “ready to go”

            4-5 months depending on how hardcore you do the after-harvest stuff, basically. I keep 2 sets in rotation, when one goes to flower I plant another, basically

      Boy, if you had basic civics knowledge as to how a president in the executive branch cannot pass laws himself but requires the legislative branch (Congress) to pass said laws that he would back.

        Actually the power of executive orders are very broad, and as of 2024, are beyond any limits of law. Official acts of a sitting president cannot be criminalized. He can absolutely order the FDA to immediately remove Marijuana from schedule 1 status, but he won’t. What carrot would Harris have to dangle in front of us at that point?

        For context, yes, I’m a dem, and yes, I’m voting for Harris, but fuck me I’m tired of such transparent posturing.

        Say what you will about the Republicans, at least they get results on their absurd culture war bullshit. Best the Dems can do for the left is ignore us completely and give us Tim Walz as a VP like we should be soooo fucking grateful

          I don’t think Tim Walz was chosen to attract left-wing voters. He’s not center left or far left.

          I agree with you that the Democrats tend to ignore the left, and it’s incredible annoying, but at the same time in my opinion Harris is a better candidate than Hillary was. It’s a small improvement, but it’s an improvement. (Obviously this depends on your views on various issues, so you could disagree reasonably enough.)

    I remember Biden running on a promise to federally decriminalized Marijuana. Never happened. Don’t expect it to happen under Harris either. Dumb cow laughs about locking up people for profit using less than a gram of weed.

    It would’ve been cool if she said this when she was actively putting people in cages for weed.

    It would’ve been cool if she said this for the past 4 years while she was VP.

    Now she’s saying it for an election. I’m sure she’s legit this time. lol.
