Mr. Nice Guy “Shit”

Yeah mns were involved with neville/shantibaba and greenhouse seeds in holland. I had no idea new york 1900's cannabis were that prevalent.

George Washington

Our nation’s first President wrote often about the lucrative value that cannabis possessed. “Make the most you can of [hemp], by sowing them again in drills!” wrote Washington in a 1794 letter to William Pierce. “Let the ground be well prepared, and the Seed be sown in April. The Hemp may be sown any where.” Washington shared how growing cannabis was not always easy in the eighteenth century. “Began to separate the male from female plants rather too late . . . ” wrote Washington in his grow log. “Pulling up the (male) hemp. Was too late for the blossom hemp by three weeks or a month.” George Washington may have also referenced hashish in one letter, “The artificial preparation of hemp, from Silesia, is really a curiosity.”

Thomas Jefferson

“Some of my finest hours have been spent on my back veranda, smoking hemp…” Monticello.org gets asked about this quote or misquote more often than any other—and it’s not found in any of Jefferson’s official writings. They did, however, confirm that Jefferson grew the plant. Jefferson wanted to grow cannabis so bad, he illegally smuggled potent hemp seeds from China into France, where hashish smoking was popular during that era. Like Washington, Jefferson improved hemp landraces and even invented a tool for crushing the plants stems during fiber processing.

James Madison

Like our nation’s third president, our nation’s fourth president and “Father of the Constitution” was heard to say that smoking hemp inspired him to found a new nation based on Democratic principles. By now, three out of four presidents had spoken out about the benefits of hemp.

Why do you think Jefferson went through the trouble of bringing seeds back with him when he could find some hemp back home?

I love Mr. Nice's Super Silver Haze, but did not care for their Spice.

Never tried their Shit. Would never buy a strain with that kind of name or that smells like shit.
