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.
