Stupid things you have heard about marijuana

[fr33th3w33d]

I remembered this thread from OG. I've heard some really dumb stuff today and i remembered the laughs i got from that thread

"maui wowwie man, its this strain that grows in sand from hawaii"

 

[rusto]

"dro is the best kind of bud there is"
"chronic means good weed"
"the more orange hairs the better"
"when it has seeds it means its not good"

plus like thousands more...ill leave the rest to others or when i think of more

 

[kush07]

Marijuana is the Devil!
Smoking on Joint is equivalent to smoking 5 cigs.
Why is this stuff purple, is it diseased?

Kinda tired so I can't think of many. I'm off to bed to recharge the batteries for another long pointless day at work.

Happy Toking

I've heard lots of stupid b.s. over the years, so here's some of the better ones I can remember:
-If you water your plants with bong water, they'll be more potent
-If you hang your plants upside down after you cut, all the thc runs into the buds
-You can grow with a black light
-OG Kush is hard to grow because you have to water it twice a day
-Bagseed sucks and is a waste of time (see some of my pics if you don't believe that one)
-Smoking seeds makes you sterile
-Tiger striped seeds are female
-If it wins the cannabis cup, it must be the best smoke around

Those are the best I can think of right now, but I'll post more if they come to mind.

One from the DARE Program i think: Smoking pistilate cannabis flowers will eventually make you grow boobs because you ingest so many female hormones.

The really good looking seeds are the most potent.

My mother this weekend "So are they're still growing out there? (outdoor)
my reply, "Mom, cannabis is a fast growing annual, just like tomatoes. They all get cut down at harvest or die with the frost"
Mom, "Well I don't know, i didn't ever get into that. They could still be growing under ground or something."

Me, "Dude you need to water your plants! They're all bending over! It probably didn't help you used so much regular clay dirt in your pots. The pots aren't even filled close to all the way. There's a bunch of weeds growing in them too."

Grow buddy, "I don't care, this is just a hobby of mine."

He harvested in september, ran out of smoke before mid october

"So what part of the plant do you smoke?"

 

[Guest]

I hate it when people call weed dope.

 

[Ncogneato]

It's called "Indo" because it was grown indoors.

Boiling your root ball will make your buds more potent.

Sinsemilla is a strain.

Yeah thats an oldschool term. Dopey dope is doping up the place with all the dope.

John Walters, "More people are entered into counseling for marijuana than for any other drug. It is the most dangerous drug problem in our country." (somethin along those lines.)

------------------------------


"Marihuana leads to pacifism and communist brainwashing"
Federal Bureau of Narcotics Chief Harry J. Anslinger, 1948
---------------------------------------------------

"Our country has deliberately undertaken a great social and economic experiment, noble in motive and far-reaching in purpose."

Herbert Hoover
US President
on the 18th Amendment enacting Alcohol Prohibtion, 1919
-------------------------------

"The prestige of government has undoubtedly been lowered considerably by the prohibition law. For nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced. It is an open secret that the dangerous increase of crime in this country is closely connected with this."

Albert Einstein
"My First Impression of the U.S.A.", 1921
-----------------------------------------------

"Persons using this narcotic [marijuana] smoke the dried leaves of the plant, which has the effect of driving them completely insane. The addict loses all sense of moral responsibility. Addicts to this drug, while under its influence, are immune to pain, and could be injured without having any realization of their condition. While in this condition they become raving maniacs and are liable to kill or indulge in any form of violence to other persons, using the most savage methods of cruelty without, as said before, any sense of moral responsibility. . . . If this drug is indulged in to any great extent, it ends in the untimely death of its addict."

Emily Murphy
Edmonton Canada, 1923
campaigner for cannabis prohibition in Canada
-------------------------------------

"I wish I could show you what a small marihuana cigarette can do to one of our degenerate Spanish-speaking residents. That's why our problem is so great; the greatest percentage of our population is composed of Spanish-speaking persons, most of who are low mentally, because of social and racial conditions."

Floyd K. Baskette
Alamosa, Colorado
quoted by Harry J. Anslinger,
Commissioner of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics
during the hearings on the 1937 Marihuana Tax Act
---------------------------------------------

Marijuana is taken by ".....musicians. And I'm not speaking about good musicians, but the jazz type..."

Harry J. Anslinger
Federal Bureau of Narcotics
1948
----------------------------------

"Our youth can not understand why society chooses to criminalize a behavior with so little visible ill effect or adverse social impact... These young people have jumped the fence and found no cliff. And the disrespect for the possession laws fosters a disrespect for laws and the system in general... On top of this is the distinct impression among the youth that some police may use the marihuana laws to arrest people they don't like for other reasons, whether it be their politics, their hair style or their ethnic background."

"Federal and state laws (should) be changed to no longer make it a crime to possess marijuana for private use."

"State laws should make the public use of marijuana a criminal offense punishable by a $100 fine. Under federal law, marijuana smoked in public would merely be subject to seizure."

President Richard M. Nixon's
National Commission on Marihuana and Drug Abuse taima CD-ROM
"Marihuana: A Signal of Misunderstanding"
March 1972
-----------------------------

"Criminal penalties have clearly failed to prevent widespread use of marijuana... Law and health are two entirely separate issues."

Bob DuPont
Director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse
President Nixon's 'drug czar'
1974 NORML annual conference
-------------------------------

"Penalties against possession of a drug should not be more damaging to an individual than the use of the drug itself; and where they are, they should be changed. Nowhere is this more clear than in the laws against possession of marihuana in private for personal use... Therefore, I support legislation amending Federal law to eliminate all Federal criminal penalties for the possession of up to one ounce [28g] of marihuana."

Jimmy Carter
U.S. President
Message to congress

Everyone has heard this one:
Marijuana has no medicinal value.

One person I know told me you don't want it to flower. You are supposed to smoke the leaves. lol

 

[buckeye-leaf]

Dumbest thing I've heard is bongwater is good for plants and if you drink it you get high.......

 

[spectrum]

'dude you gotta try this, this shit is DRO!'
'dude im gonna be getting some purple haze!!!'
'you have to take female plants & turn them male - thats how you make the chronic'

*EDIT*
just remembered - the lead singer of one of the bands im in, who is a heavy cig smoker, told me he needs to stop smoking weed cause its messing up his singing voice. i said 'im pretty sure its the cigarettes', and he said 'no! smoking a joint is equal to smoking 5 cigarettes!!'.

'so smoking a blunt is equal to smoking a pack of cigs in one sitting?'

 

[NOKUY]

I was told by a co-worker who doesnt know I grow that "you have to keep a male around the females or they won't flower"

I just noded politely

he was telling me about some outdoor plants he had sum 15 years ago that got ripped.

 

[Guest]

I've heard on several occassions that people say they can tell if it's outdoor or indoor grown. Like this dude smoked some weed I had and said he thought it was outdoor because it tasted like pine.

I've heard other people say this shit before but I'm confused how many people can think this? Urban myth? Is there any basis to this at all whatsoever?
