Edit: so it turns out that every hobby can be expensive if you do it long enough.

Also I love how you talk about your hobby as some addicts.

Growing cannabis (legal here in Canada)

anyone can grow weed. Growing GOOD weed is an art.

I unintentionally grow weed because I made some tincture for grandma.

Now it just grows on my garden and I can't get rid of it.

One of it's many nicknames is ditchweed for a reason. It's a weed like any other. The US spends millions per year burning it out of ditches on the side of the road all around the country.

I’d be happy to burn it for them!

A little bit at a time!

We call it "The Granny choice" variety.

And trust me it is horrible, for tinctures it is great, but for anything else not.

In Germany we will be allowed to grow some for private use come next year. I have no idea what to get yet, but I will just plant it in a planter in the garden and hope that it works I guess :D

I hope you’ll be able to get seeds and strains imported from the US and Canada. I smoked weed in Germany while I was living there in 2015 a few times and it was the worst weed I’ve ever smoked. It tasted weird, smelled bad, and didn’t even get me high. When I asked someone about it they were just like “weed isn’t as strong here as it is in the U.S.”

There are European based seed banks. Also they share a border with the Netherlands.

[-] MaggiWuerze@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

I think that's still up for debate. Let's see. But I haven't been smoking for quite some time, so maybe my first batch is fine being on the weak side

[-] Riyria@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

Have you smoked outside of Germany? I only ever smoked in Germany so I don’t know how it is anywhere else in Europe so maybe my experience is the problem, but I have friends who have come to the US and said weed is way stronger here.

[-] MaggiWuerze@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

No, only ever smoked in Germany. That would explain how it is shown in american media
