That's interesting. I know about Sinsemilla (Spanish for 'without seeds'). Other than spacing I don't know much about fiber and seed production techniques. At any rate, my previous post was not really meant as a rebuttal but a buttress. Washington knew 'rope.'

Hemp was the single most important commodity of the day to nations with aspirations of independence and power. Even in WWII it was vital to the war effort thus the temporary suspension of the ban on growing it and a robust government campaign to get farmers growing it. The military, particularly the Navy, used it by the millions of tons even without the need for sails. All things you probably know judging from your posts. ; )

I didn't take it as a rebuttal...Just adding to your knowledge. We are a nation founded by pot smokers. That is an undeniable part of our history. When you read letters and other writings from those days you will see references to muggle and muggie. Local lingo of the times...Pot!

You could order a clay pipe packed with Indica at every tavern in early America. "Gimme a muggie"!
