My wife and I grew an impressive vegetable garden this year that is still feeding us. I bet we could grow some amazing weed.

If you thought good vegetable seeds were expensive, wait til you look up cannabis seed prices

I'm the opposite lol we grow super good weed but no edible crops yet.

[–] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

You can do it. But then you will be spoiled by the amazing veggies out of your garden, and the stuff from the store just tasted bland.

Also, if you want to share with your friends in the cough cough "not fun states", they sell biodegradable "plastic" wrap now.

I'm not following about the plastic wrap, can you elaborate

It's for sharing through the mail. For example: I live on the west coast. My other family lives on the east coast (where it's illegal). You make a brick and send it to them. It's kind of a lost art now that it's legal most places lol.

It sounds really stupid, but it works, and if you have family with M.S., C.P., etc... you don't really have a choice.

Edit: also the fact the plastic is biodegradable is more me just being happy for the environment. That's not a reference to anything. So I'd you're into that, you can send it abroad and not hurt the environment as much.

It sounds dumb but it works, it's not dumb right? And being biodegradable is definitely a plus!

I hear prison is nice this time of year.

Seriously, if you do decide to ship drugs through the mail, don't. It's safer for you and the recipient for them to buy from a trusted local dealer than to receive drugs in the mail.

I'm talking about a person who can't move. They don't know dealers. If it was rec. I would agree.

They need relief for the symptoms of their disease, but they can't aquire it on their own. It's not really a choice, you just have to figure out the best way you can do it.

It's pretty much: live in constant agony, or risk going to to jail. Most people pick the risk.

There is also reliable way to do it. I'm not going into detail, but you can do it safely. There is an art to making a brick, but like I said, it's VERY, VERY RARE to need to send someone something like that. I do agree, don't do it for fun or to make money.

It's more of a "if you know, you know", type situation.
