how do you smoke a joint in your space suit, you cant magically put the joint through your helmet. And if you just kept it in your mouth what if it fell and burned a hole through the suit. Alot of thinking to do before anyone tries this. I would like to be the first person to try and shot gun a beer in zero gravity.
your space suit would be like a gas mask bong.

holy crap that would be absolute bliss. probably wouldnt be able to stop laughing. I mean you would be like the only mother fucker ever to do that ever and I would really not care about shit cause who else could ever say they did that. I mean you literally would have accomplished more than any other head will. too bad its science fiction ...... for nowbongsmilie lmao
maybe after i smoke it wont be science fiction any more. hold up brb bongsmilie

so i was thinking, i want to be the first person to try growing weed on the moon, the light would be hella intense and theres no gravity to hold down the plant, the plants would be 20 feet tall with buds the size of boulders!
Previous spaceflight experiments have confirmed that, as long as the environment
is controlled with the right hardware, seeds can germinate, the resulting seedlings
can grow, and the mature plants can bloom and bear fruit in space. However, the
degree of growth is a different matter. A microgravity environment has a great
impact on plant growth and development, and it eventually affects plant yield.

Gravitropism is a bending response, accomplished by differential growth of plant
organs in response to gravity. On the space shuttle flight STS-95, which
included Astronaut Chiaki Mukai, experiments were conducted to compare
ground-grown and space-grown Arabidopsis and rice. On Earth, aerial parts of
the plant (shoots) grow upward while roots grow downward. However, the
experiments showed that in a microgravity environment, the growth direction is
unregulated, and some roots even extend in the same direction as the aerial
stems (Figure 1). In the case of root gravitropism, the hypothesis is that gravity
is perceived by root cap cells, called columella, which are found at the root tips.
Within the columella cells, starch-filled amyloplasts settle due to gravity, causing
a change in the flow of the plant hormone auxin.

In essence, auxin characteristically flows in a fixed direction, from an aerial
shoot, including the apical meristem and young leaves, towards the roots,
through a central cylinder. After flowing down to the root tips by this polar
transport, auxin begins to flow in the opposite direction, as if making a U-turn,
along the roots. When roots are inclined and given gravitational stimulus,
however, U-turning auxin tends to go downward instead of upward. As a result,
the concentration of auxin increases in the lower part of the elongation zone in
the inclined roots, causing a differential growth between the lower part and the
upper part; the growth rate of the lower part decreases compared to that of the
upper part causing the root to bend downward. This is how plant roots on Earth
grow downward in response to gravity. However, in microgravity, amyloplasts do
not settle within the root cap cells, so gravity is not perceived, nor is asymmetric
auxin distribution induced. This is why, presumably, growth direction is
uncontrolled in space.

It's been done..... March 2008.

A French astronaut is tending a miniature garden on the International Space Station (ISS) as part of the first experiment inside the orbiting laboratory's new European research module.
European Space Agency (ESA) astronaut Leopold Eyharts is growing tiny seedlings inside the space station's Columbus laboratory, which he helped deliver during last month's STS-122 shuttle flight.
The WAICO experiment — short for Waving and Coiling of Arabidopsis Roots at Different g-levels — could help scientists figure out how to grow crops in space for future astronauts during long space voyages. Eyharts is growing two types of Arabidopsis seeds, relatives of the mustard plant, in both zero gravity and Earth gravity during the study.

"We're going to see how they grow in microgravity," Eyharts told a group of 300 students in Toulouse, France Tuesday via a video link. "They can live for a long time on the International Space Station, but they're not going to grow the same way as they do on Earth."
Eyharts said the experiment began in earnest a few days ago in Columbus' Biolab research rack, so it is still too early to determine how his orbital crop is fairing.
"Theoretically, we should be able to [analyze the] results and the samples when we get back to Earth," Eyharts said.
Both a wild type and a genetically modified type of seed will be left to grow for 10 to 15 days. Biolab's video cameras will record the growth and allow Earth-bound observers to see the plants progress in real-time.
The experiment's lead scientist, professor Guenther Scherer from the Leibniz University in Hannover, Germany, will observe how the different levels of gravity affect the normal spiraling and coiling root growth.
By the end of the experiment, Biolab will automatically preserve the seeds in their final state of growth for scientists to analyze back on Earth. Eyharts will also take photographs of the plants' appearance at that time.
Biolab is one of several science experiments planned for ESA's Columbus lab, which Eyharts is commissioning during his stint as an Expedition 16 flight engineer aboard ISS. The research module is Europe's largest contribution to the ISS project.
Eyharts and seedlings alike will return to Earth in late March aboard the space shuttle Endeavour during NASA's upcoming STS-123 mission.

There you go again CJ, dragging reality into a Cannibis induced capricious fantasy.
Much like glancing over and seeing a pic of your mother in law on your night stand while playing slap and tickle.
De-boner.

:lol: dang reality.... puff up folks!!

But the rest of the story was never told. The plants responded to the increased gravity by morphing into hard armor plated plants with razor sharp edges as protection. The astronauts were all gutted and bleeding in the capsule upon landing.... only the pilot was spared because he was a woman who was menstruating at the time and the plants were saving her for a blood sacrifice later. The plants had no idea they were falling back to a planet with 6 billion ppl, and when they realized they were outnumbered, they committed suicide by climbing up Al Gore's arse after Gore had cabbage for dinner.

And that is how global warming actually started.....

lmfao, you must have smoked a spliff to your face and then typed this. welcome :D

It all makes sense.... after you smoke! :lol:

The world can be a much NICER place....but it's going to take an awful amount of weed 24/7 to keep it that way.

no people just need to smoke a joint or a bowl as soon as they start getting mad. it really works wonders. hahahah everything makes sense after you smoke

i luv how this ridiculous ass post (in the wrong section no less), gets 6 pages of attention but i cant get someone to point out a nutrient deficiency
