Legal Weed is destroying Cannabis Genetics

I’m just glad there’s still people out here preserving

only California, Colorado, Michigan, and Vermont allow personal grow with no license, and there’s more than 30 with legal marijuana.
Why would you say something like that so confidently without doing any research? We can grow here in AZ without a license. If you missed us in sure you missed many others.

Legal Oregon grower. And I'm not destroying cannabis genetics. I'm preserving them. I do seed runs of landraces to preserve genetics.

If anything legalization is preserving genetics. I'm not alone, there are many all across the world that seek out strains from remote regions that have not yet been compromised by introductions of higher yielding hybrids that bring a larger profit for the indigenous growers in those areas. Those strains are then recreated and shared thus preserving the genetics all around the world rather than just one area where they are susceptible to having their genetics diluted by introduced hybrids.

The sky is not falling. And the genetics have been changing for thousands of years as traders and explorers gathered and distributed seed from hundreds if not thousands of different plant across all geographical regions across the planet. Genetics have always and always will continue to change and be influenced among all varieties of plants. What's occurring now is the acceleration of a process that has been going on since plants first sprouted and started growing.

I bought and planted a rose at my mothers that can be traced back to the 1500's. Genetics have and will continue to be saved.
