I can't go too far with this I got a bad back
BIGGEST NEWS SINCE CALLY FIRST ANNOUNCED MEDICAL MARIJUANA LAWS ... MARIJUANA LEGAL FROM A FEDERAL STANDPOINT !!!
Obama Administration Announces New Policy: Will Stop Arresting Medical Marijuana Patients and Providers in Compliance with Their States Medical Marijuana Law, Even if it Conflicts with Federal Law
DPA Statement: New Guidelines Are Clear Mandate, Rogue District Attorneys Need to Stop Harassing and Going after Patients and Dispensaries
For Immediate Release: Monday, October 19, 2009. Contact: Tony Newman 646-335-5384 or Ethan Nadelmann 646-335-2240
The Obama Administration is releasing new guidelines today directing federal drug agents not to arrest or harass medical marijuana patients and their sanctioned suppliers in states that have approved the medicine, as long as they are following their states medical marijuana law. The new guidelines will impact thirteen states that currently allow marijuana for medical purposes. The states that allow some use of marijuana for medical purposes are: Alaska, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Maine, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington.
The guidelines are consistent with previous comments made by Attorney General Eric Holder back in March, and campaign pledges made by President Obama in 2008.
Ethan Nadelmann, executive director of the Drug Policy Alliance issued the following statement:
It's great to see the Obama administration making good on the promises that candidate Obama made last year. These new guidelines effectively open the door to sensible collaboration between state governments and medical marijuana providers in ensuring that patients have safe and reliable access to their medicine.
What remains unclear is how the Justice Department will respond to rogue state attorneys, such as San Diego's Bonnie Dumanis, who persist in undermining state medical marijuana laws in their local jurisdictions.
Now is the right time for the Obama administration to move forward with federal legislation to end the irrational prohibition of medical marijuana under federal law.
PREPARE FOR THE AVALANCHE IN THE NEXT 12-24 MONTHS OF STATES THAT WILL ADOPT MEDICAL MARIJUANA LAWS - TO JUMP ON THE TAXATION BANDWAGON. SO LONG MEXICAN MARIJUANA DRUG CARTELS ... HELLO ALLEVIATION OF CHRONIC PAIN !!

right on. glad to see things didn't go 'snake eyes' on you. one of these days maybe we'll both get lucky.ROLLL THE DICE AGIAN AND AGIAN....
right, right. no change in my area either ... except that there will be a renewed attempt to pass medical marijuana legislation, which would deffinitely be a bonus if it passed. until more states hop on the medi-mary wagon - it may be awhile before Marijunana is re-classified as a Schedule II (medically valued) controlled substance.I seen this on the news and its cool and Im happy for the people that it effects....but me I live in a state with marijuana laws that are inline with the feds so pretty harsh and we have no medical marijuana laws and I dont see that changing in the near future so for me its business as usual... I do see it as a step forward Im glad Obama finally made good on his promise..but other than maybe a couple more states adopting med laws in the next few years I dont think it will change much and the next president can go back to the old ways of doing things…hopefully Im wrong and in the next couple years we all will be smoking medical marijuana but I just dont see it
ya, i'm looking at a perpetual 48 plant flower room (with another 48 in clone / veg) ... i think larger trees and lower plant numbers are the way to go man, till this shit is legal. Surprised ur hanging up the Hydro Hat... seemed like ur project was going pretty well. I think i might be hooked on hydroponics - deffinitely still tweaking things though and trying to figure out the best media to use. i'm still keeping an eye on ur journal.... n ill be working my way up to a Perpetually kept 25 plant garden. I set my ebb/flow trays to the side for the time being,-K1.
Yea we have been trying to get it some kind of decriminalized here it never goes too far just a couple of failed votes on it maybe this is the first step in federal decriminalization I see that happening way before legalization or even medical on a federal levelright, right. no change in my area either ... except that there will be a renewed attempt to pass medical marijuana legislation, which would deffinitely be a bonus if it passed. until more states hop on the medi-mary wagon - it may be awhile before Marijunana is re-classified as a Schedule II (medically valued) controlled substance.

soil stays too wet...you may be interested in my combined soil hydro technique once it gets going in my perpetual grow.... I will let you know when it has been established
sphagnum is NOTHING like perlite. perlite barely holds any water and doesn't wick very much either. sphagnum does both in spades. It's not a soil, true, but it behaves much more like soil than media like perlite or hydroton.sphagnum plug is not soil...... sphagnum is notorious for holding too much water, unless it dries out, then it is resistant to water, not a good choice as a pure medium, same IMO as perlite
yupper. i could see that being a problem if you were auto-watering once per day. you might just skip to every other day until they seem a bit more resistant to the over-watering (over water retention).... That plug would always be soaking wet. My current clones are having trouble because I added a little vermiculite to my perlite (20%) and now they are staying too wet in the root zone. I'm going to have to move them into the pure perlite they are craving.
hmm.... damn the internets lack of tone and / or facial features and body language, etc.looks like amiture week lol
