I agree and would take it one step further. Let anyone grow it who wants
to. The leaves and flowers can be used in salads and sandwiches and the seeds
used in salads are the best source of the right combination of omega's 3 and 6
fatty acids (the best to clean the arteries of bad cholesterol and maintain good
heart function). The seeds also have a pleasant nutty flavour. The plants that
would be grown in the gardens would likely not be as potent as the "street
variety". Anyone desirous of a stronger stone would still want to purchase and
this could then be a legal, taxable product. Aside from this, local hemp
industries could collect the stalks and manufacture paper, twine or rope, or
cloth.
If it is legal to grow monkshood (Aconitum) in ones' garden (so
poisonous that you cannot grow it in the same vicinity as root vegetables
because the exudates from the roots can be picked up by the neighbouring plants
and make the consumer of those vegetables very ill); so toxic that it was one of
European aristocracy's favourite poisons from the 15th to the 18th centuries,
why can we not grow marijuana.
