Marijuanna is a naturally growing thing.

Actually, the cannabis plant is a naturally growing thing. But, marijuana requires human intervention.

The male plants must be sacrificed to prevent them from pollinating the female plant. When the female cannabis plant is unable to go to seed, the plant's buds continue to create resins, resulting in marijuana.

Hmmmmm.....exactly how does one tell a female pot plant from a male pot plant? I have a disease called plantar fibromatosis and had surgery on both feet to remove the plantar fascia. Nerve damage resulting from the operations (they had to dig out the tumors) has left me in near constant pain...Imagine having a Bic lighter lit under your foot all the time....I have a prescription for 180 Percocets for three months (2 a day) that helps me tolerate the pain but I have found cannabis a far superior drug for tolerating the pain. Besides... the hydrocodone stops up the plumbing.

My point is there are exceptions to every rule and what I do in the privacy of my own home should be no business of anyone else.

now...about differences between male and female pot plants, please ? :-) Living on a fixed income is not conducive to spending large amounts of money on my pain killer of choice.
