Holy shit, that crap is still going?! :mad: This is a flashback nightmare from the 80's!
The difference between now & then. Back in the day, mid 70's on Maui, or all of Hawaii for that matter the "Akamai farmer",knew what to do. Back then Green Harvest had limited budget back when it first started up through the mid 80's. The akamai farmer knew if Green harvest was on Kauai, it would be several days before it would reach Maui for irradication. Budget restraints required GH to go from one end to the other, one island at a time. But now days with federal funding ,...watch out! Who knows where they will start? That is why I was so disappointed when the three cannabis bills died in Honolulu reccently. I mean why shouldn't all of Hawaii have dispensaries, not just Hilo? I also think all islands should be like us. All med patients should be allowed to grow 24 plant like we do here on Big Island. Funny how populated Oahu is, but the island just doesn't have enough good activists working for the cause. Honolulu should be ashamed that they didn't join in on the world wide cannabis march last week. The city is to big, with to many people,yet no one put it together? Sad...Oahu needs more activist2. Especially if we ever want to see it legal in the islands

AUWE!!! This is disturbing by any angle you look at it. Part of me says that the gov't. wants to keep it illegal so that they keep their jobs, blow taxpayer money, feed da "machine" and make some good O.T. so they can have surf and turf on their dinner table. :leaf:

Meh, maybe I need to move to the west coast instead of Hawaii :(

yeah the islands do need more activitists, seems like this state can't go anywhere when it comes to passing controversial laws. Unfortunately, I have a feeling hawaii will be strictly limited in medical use state for a while, and when the laws do become more leniant(for medical use), it will be a very regulated and limited system of dispensaries and patients, nothing like cali.

Anywayz I got some pretty bad news. Got caught up with leo, plants are gone,:cry::cry::cry::cry:, (not to mention my vape) I got my friend facing some serious charges, and im just trying not to get caught up in it, right now im being requested for "questioning" and they really really seem to want to question me. so my main goal now is to just get out of this forsaken state and back to HI. alohas to all.:leaf:

EDIT: reworded some stuff, thanks for the heads up sheckz

Hawaii is legal for medical use..
Only problem is there are no distribution systems set up.. A broken system~
We also have a Governor who seems to care more about her political career than what is good for the people of Hawaii.. (See Furlough Friday Debacle) ..

Another problem is too many of our elected officials are afraid to make a tough decision. They want to play it safe.. because after all... most of them could care less about the welfare of this state, they just want to climb the political ladder... We do have some "mavericks" but too few that really care!!

I think many of these politicians are waiting to see what happens in California, and what the backlash will be..

yup, I have a feeling if the november bill goes through we will start to see A LOT of progression in other states as far as legalization goes, but like you said, a lot of officials are too afraid to be making these kinds of choices and that honeslty is a bad thing, really the entire political system needs to be made of mavericks and free thinkers, not all these close minded old guys who care about nothing more than their status on the political ladder.

There is no tonic that can stop a plant from doing what it does. I don't feel like arguing, but if folks must rant I can not stop you.

Run your whole pack of seeds..
Root out the males
clone your best specimens
Make sure you label the Mom & respective clone (og1,og2,og3)
Grow the moms out... Flower em
Save the best example as your clone mother for that particular strain..
