American weed is superior to dutch.

Yes, it's done intentionally to get their genetic marker into their crops, and unintentionally like you say. My wife is thinking of moving to Portugal as we get older. I would be happy to know more about the collective.
Do you think that's where she's going. Off to get a bit of that genetic marker herself?

I can't give them up. They will find you, if they want to. Maybe send you some pics :)

1989 [Dutch ]Sensi Seed Bank was a good year...
Before too many cooks, spoiled the broth.
I had no other route to seeds at that time, except those found within weed we bought. Them early publications were gold, and the mission to get there a priority

I'm still not sure if you are constantly trolling, or if that's just how you interact with people in general...
Mostly both of it I guess ^^ Its okay in doses, but getting frustrating really fast. Its also really hard to think of an age. With his "knowledge" of old strains and stuff he should be round about 50-60 but he acts like ... mid to end 20s. :D

We both are older and have outgrown the unconscious instinct to reproduce. So it's not a driving factor in our behavior anymore. As you get older the illusion fades and the mucus, the bacteria, the smell of someone elses body, just becomes disgusting. Even to think about others doing it. A certain amount of unconsciousness is needed to cover the reality so nature can be successful. My vote was the Himalayas. It wont be long and it will be my time to go off into the mountains forever. Many of the cannabis farmers up there are old women. The men gone to the city for work and a modern life. The kids, they just want a basic education. Walking miles from village to village to try to learn what they can. Eventually they too feel the unconscous instinct to reproduce and thrust their hips in their beds thinking of all the girls in the city. Some go away just to have reliable electricity. Nobody wants to stay on the farm, living their ancient, sustainable, ecofriendly way of life farming cannabis. So that culture is disappearing. Perhaps I will go with it.

Or go to portugal. It's not important right now.

I have long thought the rope walks of the British Navy deserved a good deal of credit for the
widespread distribution of cannabis. It always stuck out to me, that the colony of Roanoke
was required to pay taxes with cannabis.

Hell, if we could only have some comprehensive information on cannabis...

I'm trying to confirm folklore that if it is true, would be an advancement in knowledge about cannabis expression. As of now I just consider it folklore. "I've seen it with my own eyes" nothing but words. Need evidence. Photos, samples, measurements. This years botanical survey had a point to try and get basic data on this, and samples if possible.

where do you think most of the commercial u.s. hybrids originate? not like the heirloom/ landrace origins, i mean how you probably have mostly smoked nevil's work most of your weed career
This.as far as I know most hybrids and indica came from Dutch genetics back in the 80s. OP is just a trolling dick

I don’t mean to cause a shitstorm Mr Lahey but the Dutch did receive a large part of their genetic pool from the Americans.

The US hippies and surfers collected most of these genetics from their travels. They organized imports and grew crops to supply the masses where more seeds were collected by punters .

Some of these were grown out acclimatised or cross bred and the results later taken to the Netherlands and sold all over the world.

Tbh this is a little bit of a chicken and egg discussion . Cause the places they got it from got it from somewhere else, which got it from somewhere else etc etc

Our favourite plant seems to always have been a traveler and I’m picking always will be

Looking forward to that deep space weed

How much time you got? There are some valid publications going deeper into it. I put 3 in my personal archive to check them later more deeply. It's

DOI: 10.1111/j.1931-0846.2014.12038.x
High Points: An Historical Geography of Cannabis by Barney Warf (2014)

http:// journals.openedition.org/echogeo/17650
American Weed: A History of Cannabis Cultivation in the United States by Nick Johnson(2019)

Cannabis Domestication, Breeding History, Present-day Genetic Diversity, and Future Prospects by Clarke & Merlin (2016)

Should give at lot of background information on modern genetics and heritage, with special focus on american breeding/cultivating/culture.

But will take half a day to go through all of that I guess :D

So as the English began today's America, they took it. Interesting.
At that time, the English were also in India. With the Dutch. However, 1500 years earlier, there was hemp rope in the UK. It's hard to say when Europe got it, but there was no modern day America at the time. What did the natives put in the peace pipe though?

Quick checkup: Depended on where u were, east was tobacco, west was often herbs and stuff called Kinni-kinnick
Interesting.
I bet Mexican pre-dates the arrival of the English. We know people could of entered the Americas on foot from Russia, just about certainly. It's not something those people could of grown though. In the south, structures of Egyptian dating might offer a better idea. People who may of looked at bird migratory patterns, to figure something was over there. Flying things themselves have always been spreading things about though. I reckon it's just too long ago to be sure, but I have an idea of ceremonial seeds in tombs being found, and so it was almost certainly around, thousands of years ago.
