Weed growing Mormon....

Conservative is the upbringing....very conservative. Parents never smoked, drank, never fought, lived by good health laws....and now their eldest son is growing weed in the garden. It's a scandal!!
Take a look....it's becoming an awesome plant!

So yes, my parents and family are ultra conservative, and I loved the morals and upbringing they gave me. Am I rebelling, am I turning my back on those lessons?
No I'm not, I too am quite conservative. I have never smoked or drank or done drugs. But I AM a strong believer in doing things that are good for you, and not waiting on being taken care of by others.

Cannibanoids are blowing up as a natural healing option for those that are tired of struggling through the medical and chemical world, and owing to the fact that my wife has had cancer, my mother in law has had 2 bouts of cancer (breast and melanoma and is currently going through chemo), its time we start looking at other options other than just the usual courses of action that are told to us by our medical specialists (for which I am grateful, but often believe are led down a path led by money and power- I am a bit of a conspiricist).

So over and above the nagging to get the mother in law in shape, and to improve her diet, we will be growing Hemp in large quantities on the farm in order to reduce it to the oils, for their healing agents.
This is not to replace the current course of action that the mother in law is on, but to supplement the treatments, and also to save us the money of buying the oils regularly.
There is just so much proof out there of the health benefits, that we would be amiss not to try this. Seeing that the current medical options are so much more risky than what this is.

So it is off to get the equipment, growing the plants, learning the reduction methods personally, and adding that to a little coconut oil so that we can drip the oil into the daily diets of these 2 women in my life.

For those wondering, the growing of 'weed' is legal in South Africa. For personal use in the home, they have no issues. It is when you become a dealer of the product that this is a problem.
It will take about 4grams of the plant to make 1ml of the oil.....so we need a substantial amount to supply the needs here.

So wish me luck as I try to assist in the improvement of their lives. I feel good about trying in this regard. I feel like unless there is money to be made, these options are not 'put out there' for the general public. It's only by well meaning people trying to make others aware of these options that these things become known.

Thank you to all those warriors that did so....now let's see what we can do with a few grams of product, some ethanol and a distiller :)

Please see below for a great video on how to create the oil at home.
