I have one idea...?
The ones who forbid Cannabis were probably pretty smart, at least they had the power to do so and you don’t get that for free, it’s a tricky way up there.
I believe they planned for the coming generations
.
They knew that if they forbid cannabis that a certain kind of people would try it anyway as they would like to find out by themself what it gave for kind of effect.
And some of those would get stuck on it, and maybe start to grow them self as they had the genetics for it. And then next generation would also get in contact with cannabis, and the coming generation after that.
So these “criminals” would become farmers, small to big scale, but all they were actually doing was farming.
Now when it starts to get legalized they (some of us) know how to farm and we have also learned about the nature in the same time, something that got lost during our time in the citys.
As cannabis have been unlegal, there is and will be an enormous amount of humans that wants to grow their own weed, to use themself, to make money of it, or both.
Maybe it was a way to open up some people’s eyes on how we are treating our world?
As people care about money - if they were growing weed they would like to get the best out of it and learned as much as they could as they wanted to have the best product.
By learning how to grow, they would also learn about the climate, the nature and a whole lot of positive things that comes with that journey.
Still, there is plenty of people who dont know how to grow, those who is interested will study how to do it as it’s way smarter to be growing by yourself then to buy it of someone else, especially with the high prices today.
Plants are sensitive to the environment and the cannnabis-plant has a perfect structure of leaves, so it’s easy to see if something’s wrong by studying them.
Maybe someone were thinking that if we planted cannabis-plants in the city’s, or another place we would see where they didn’t grow as good, or almost died.
Some people would ask, why? Find the problem and put a finger on it.
As the ones at the very top don’t always tell the truth to us, maybe this is a chance for some to learn how to farm, to take a step back and to do the only thing that feels right.
To grow weed.....
