If it weren't for cannabis making rope for the exploration ships, we would not be in America. It was not until the world's fair that pot parties started in America.

the english name for marijuana. Why do they call it marijuana? because they wanted to associate it with mexicans as well when they were trying to outlaw it, using racist ploys.

" ... highs from "sativa" strains tend to produce clearer, cerebral "head" highs, whereas highs from "indica" strains produce more lethargic "body" highs, with emphasis on drowsiness, and increase appetite ("munchies"). To date, no undisputable chemical or pharmacological basis for these differing effects has been discovered. Anecdotal evidence suggest that variations in the amount of cannabidiol (CBD) may be a factor."
"Cannabis has long been used for fibre (hemp), for medicinal purposes, and as a psychoactive. Industrial hemp products are made from Cannabis plants selected to produce an abundance of fiber and minimal levels of THC (Δ9- tetrahydrocannabinol), one psychoactive molecule that produces the "high" associated with marijuana. The drug consists of dried flowers and leaves of plants selected to produce high levels of THC. Various extracts including hashish and hash oil are also produced. The cultivation and possession of Cannabis for recreational use is outlawed in most countries."

Cannabis is the genus of plant that divides into three species: Sativa, Indica, and Ruderalis. Sativa is the only specie that produces THC which gives you the head high. Indica produces other cannabinoids which give you the tired and stoned feeling. And Ruderalis is an unstable variety of Cannabis that no one smokes because its gay and doesnt produce any get high chemicals.
--All the weed you smoke has Sativa in it. A lot of the times there a Sativa/Indica hybrid, but if you wanna get really high, pure Sativa's the way to go.
--All medical cannabis doctors refer to it as cannabis, never marijuana, because that word came from a mexican descent describing it as dope.
--The song "La Cucaracha" which very few people know the words to after the title, was actually made back when America made cannabis illegal. They made that law because mexican americans were coming to the US and smoking it, and there was a prejudice towards them from many white authorities. The song plainly states "the poor cockaroach cannot travel without his marijuana."
La cucaracha, la cucaracha
Ya no puede caminar
Porque no tiene, porque le falta
marijuana para fumar
