Well, doctors of dubious backgrounds infiltrating the ridiculously over-regulated MMJ market in Florida!

Shocking!

Another compelling reason to simply
OVERGROW!

Are we supposed to ignore Florida’s ugly past of pill mills and rubber stamp prescription pads. Their doctors have been money hungry drug dealers way before medical cannabis was thought about. What a horrible uneducated opinion piece.

Funny story, but kind of off topic. Back in 1985 I tried my first grow in the basement of my house. All I did was put some potting soil in some containers, Got a couple 4’ T5 fluorescent tubes and away I went. Light duration was the only thing I controlled. It tasted horrible but smoked good.

I decided to change jobs and had found the one I wanted, but in the interview the question of a drug test came up and I told my prospective boss that I could not pass one. He asked how long it would be before I could pass one and I told him 30 days. He said OK, if you come back in 30 days and pass the test you will have the job.

I immediately went to a local hospital I knew that performed drug tests and asked if I could get one. They asked who sent me and I said no one. I wanted it for my own knowledge. I got a strange look and was told that no one had ever asked to be tested before on their own. I took the test and got a call back a couple days later. The lady said congratulations, you just scored the highest we have ever had anyone score on the THC test. Shit!!! (Never did get a bill for the test.)

I stayed clean for 30 days. Exercised, drank lots of fluids, and stayed away from the herb. Went and got tested and passed.

Long story short, I got the job. And the rest is history.

I’m really disappointed that they left out the biggest dangers involved in smoking pot. Pesticides and molds. A hundred years of smoke inhalation isn’t going to impair your breathing as much as one batch with some of the worse products being sprayed.

Hmmm?
I very rarely smoke buds in the morning, but I drink coffee every morning (and only in the morning.).
I wonder?
