A friend that smokes but doesnt grow recently visited me and i was telling him about the problems we've had with disease and bugs outdoors for the last few years. His response was "its just a weed, how bad can it be?"
I told him that today's cannabis was not a weed at all. The hybrids sold today are of garden origin created soley by mankind and perpetuated soley by man. The genetic footprint of the strains sold by retailers have no natural representation anywhere in the wild anywhere in the world and would not persist without human intervention and maintanance.
Not only are the hybridized strains of garden origin, but resulting primarily from indoor breeding, the vast majority of strains are genetically weak, often inbred, and are succeptable to many disease and pests that original genetics have developed resistance too.
I havent heard much discussion - i wondered what others thought about cannabis' "weed" status?.
