Even looked into it. Still, given the possibility of a Federal drug felony I am not going to risk it. Medical marijuana is legal in CA, but remains a federal crime. There have been convictions for it here locally since it was legalized.

I have tried literally dozens of possible cures including many different oils applied in different ways. None have made any change for me so far. Mine has been present for 30 years or longer in increasing intensity. Not much that can be done, but I still try.

I don't know that it is any cheaper than the street price here where it is legal on the state level.

The other problem with the street corner dealers is that you don't know what the source is. Most of those drugs also supplement slavery, smuggling and many have been grown using, shall I say, less than organic methods so they are chock full of nasty chemicals. I tell everyone who uses those drugs that they must know their source. Don't buy from a guy in the street. Buy directly from the grower.

It is so easy to get a "prescription" here that there is no reason not to. The sources are highly regulated and prices are supposed to be reasonable. Different strains are kept pure, and the clones are readily available for growing too. Anybody who belongs to a cooperative can get the plants and grow it themselves.
Back to topic.. nice plants vikingdad, wish I had a green thumb!

All of those pictures were taken at the Conservatory of Flowers in San Francisco, they are not mine. I do have orchids though, but my wife won't let me work with them. . She is that way with a lot of stuff.

On the other hand, I do have my own garden, right now I am working on bare-rooting my chestnut seedlings. In a couple of months I will be grafting those with some scion wood I gathered earlier (I posted pics of the tools and stuff earlier, though it might not have been in this thread. )

Just shrink her favorite article of clothing. You will never do laundry again.

I will not comply. I will not lie down. I will not go quietly. I will not submit. I will not roll over. I will not shut up.

No kidding? I have a Horticulture degree. Makes for a nice hobby, but tax accounting pays the bills. Make him get a minor in business, just in case.
