I like hemp. And nylon. Yeah the DuPont story has been around since the beginning.No disrespect dude, and I certainly do feel for people who have their prime lovingly tended cannabis grows messed with by cross-pollination ...
But hemp ain't just for CBD.
Are you aware that the drive to have 'Marijuana' illegalised was supported by Du Pont lobbying in the US.
His company invented nylon, and they wanted to snuff out the Hemp fibre market by demonising all Cannabis commercial cultivation.
( in fact, the term Marijuana was chosen to scaremonger in the eyes of the public by creating a mental association with "The Mexicans" - and it is still is the legal term in the US penal code )
Hemp fibre has a huge future role to play in a greener and more sustainable future by getting us away from plastics and man-made non-biodegradable synthetics.
Chances are that the 'first settlers' in the US arrived in ships that had sails made from hemp, rope made from hemp, hemp seed oil lamps and a host of other natural products.
All of those industries and farmers were shut down under the "illegal drug" legislation, and replaced by industrialized factories that ingrained our world dependence on oil based products, and created a demand for urban slaves working for The Man.
Times change, cannabis is a very valuable crop and heck grow hemp 5000 miles away somewhere send it here. But man i dont want outdoor grows killed by hemp. We dont need it like we did back in the early days.
