For those interested; this story popped up on the MSN home page. As always; anything written about Jamaica must be taken with a grain of salt:

The quality is so much better here and it is legal in many states if you are licensed. The Ganga in Jamaica has a long way to go to become competitive with what is going on in the rest of the world. I no longer am even really interested in the JA herb until they join the globalization of good herb. And the government needs to get on board as it is one of the top ten growing small businesses in Michigan. There is a lot of tax revenue being generated by the legalization of herb here in Michigan. The Federal Government has recently announced they will no longer attempt to override State laws regarding herb. They too see the revenue being generated by legalization and are beginning to realize the impact it is having on our legal system when there are many more serious issues that need to be addressed.

You have never been so wrong! The conditions for growing weed in Jamaica are some of the best in the world! You have no clue what you are talking about. Typical talk from those who do not know!

All of the conditions for growing herb are 100 percent controlled by the growers here. The light, the nutrients, the water, the ventilation, the soil or hydroponics, the best seeds. There is no comparison or variety like we have here in Michigan. Plus it's legal. I lived in Jamaica for many years and had access to some of the best and only wish my husband would have lived to see how acceptable it has become. Again, Jamaica needs to get on board to provide gainful legal employment to the people as well as the tax revenue generated. True the conditions are excellent but these days there is much room for improvement.

Also happy to hear what is going on in the Retreat area. But let's not give away all of Jamaica's secrets. Also, my late husband always insisted on no ferty. To him the herb was the same as his fish which I saw him spit out and throw more than once if it was not organic and had no quality.

When we arrive a get some from one of the family and of course it's the best they have.

One funny thing......... I get enough for a a couple of Jamaica sized spliffs which lasts us for about a week. LOL

At our age if we smoke too early the day is finished and I can't get anything done.

It's interesting to see how things are loosening up within the States, but not the case for Canadians crossing the border. Never mind criminal records for possession (even if it was pardoned), I heard recently that they asked Canadians at the border if they've ever smoked it, when they answered yes, they were denied entry. Seems to me that it was even noted so that they would be denied entry in the future as well. This was told to me by a co-worker, who had been told by someone that this happened to, so you never know all the truth in it...but it is beginning to seem that the "war against drugs" is for people living outside of the States.
