The reasons we smoke Cannabis

I grew be for I flew....

I fell in love with the plant be for ever trying it. I grew my first plant at ten. I took a seed from my step brother weed. I was all shake but it had seeds.(When my PIECE OF SHIT dad found it growing in my window sill. He beat the living shit out of me. To get me to tell him were I got the seeds from. Now I wish I knew then they were in bird seed so my step brother didn't receive the beating he got TOO...SORRY Brother!)
So all ready loving growing plants of all sorts. I had a ivie that grew around my room 4 times all sorts of house plants. Even cloned be for I grew my first cannabis plant. The stage was set BUT the act wasn't written yet.
The first time I smoked it,I didn't what you call stoned. The weed was government weed that a friends aunt got in a can,pre-rolled cigs.(wish I kept the can) What we smoked was the shake from the bottom of the can. It was the first timed I rolled a joint. Yes it was pregnant elephant but it was smokable. We all set around and just giggled and smoked cigs.I think we got higher off the cigs than the weed. That when I got hooked on cigs DAMMIT!

Four years went buy be for I smoked it again.(Columbian gold) That time I really felt it. It was like little fingers running up and down my body. I had never felt so peaceful and connected to my environment. We were in the woods. The birds chirping,the smell and seanery was amplified.
I knew then it was for me not just the high but for the love of growing the coolest plant I had ever seen.

I can say with out a dout I'm Addicted to Growing..

Sam, I'm sure you would do this anyway...but, make it a poll that allows for multiple votes. I would be checking off at least a few of those on your list.

all of the above, especially BlueBlazer's love @ 1st toke theory.

I remember my 1st love, it was Annie and it was @ her moms apartment in NYC, the rest is a blur, it was the spring of '72 or '73, I forget.


I do however remember everything about my 1st high in '69, a senior 'Pete' invited me & 2 friends to get high, Billy took off running but Jim & I stuck around to check it out. It was Panama Red and we toked up in Pete's attic stoners den. dayglo peace poster, dayglo American flag poster, Hendrix, Vishnu and others. Pete put Disraeli Gears (Cream) on the turntable and then the New Yardbirds (early Zep), we were blazed hard. I was lucky to get by my folks making an excuse of not feeling well and going upstairs early (mom took food up to me:)) to lie down and listen to more music which suddenly seemed to take on a whole new meaning.



yeah, love @ 1st toke.......

From what I've read so far here, many of these reasons are just excuses in disguise.

I'll be honest: I smoke pot because I like it a lot. Very simple. Sure it has lots of positive effects, but so does nettle tea - do you drink nettle tea every day? Most of us here use weed because we like it. Period. Some use it for medicinal purposes, but from what I've seen of MMJ scene, many of these "patients" are just regular stoners. Some people do need cannabis and I feel great compassion for them.
