Hey here’s a fun fact…George Washington was a grower! Lol stated the he grew “hemp” in his personal garden …talk about some presidential kush
"I am very glad to hear that the Gardener has saved so much of the St. foin seed, and that of the India Hemp. Make the most you can of both, by sowing them again in drills. . . Let the ground be well prepared, and the Seed (St. loin) be sown in April. The Hemp may be sown any where. "
George Washington to William Pearce, 24 February 1794
Yup, it is generally understood that Washington and Jefferson were well aware of the use of the “India hemp” for much more than just paper and rope.
Happy growing, sowing, and toking,

Every settler is the US was required to grow hemp while we were a colony of England as well. Had to submit 1 pound a year of hemp or face a fine lol
An now it’s an epidemic but we still succeed lol
Henry Ford even made a model T out of hemp
And thus cheech an chong came along with the hemp van in “up in smoke” lol a little off topic lol but felt it kinda suited haha sorry guys…any body remember that movie
I learned that George Washington’s writings also specified the growing of females.
That’s awesome
