The idea of having your own garden and growing your own food is more of a hobby and less of a lifestyle here. American and Canadian culture centres around convenience unfortunately which means prepackaged and ready to go. Same for growing weed I suppose. Legal weed is expensive and taxed heavily. We have cannabis shops (legal) and dispensaries/mail-order (not legal but no legal action is taken). We are only 6 years into legalization so we still have stuff to work out.

it’s not legalized federally in the US but many states have made it legal. In Canada you can fly domestic with weed in your carry-on; which you would get arrested for in America.
No need to grow male plants. With a medicinal license you can apply to grow more than 4. All this said, most stoners still buy from the black market which has just expanded since legalization. Also Canada = short grow season so we would typically use a controlled set up like a grow tent.

for sure! Although a wee bit offended you asked an American not Canadian. 😜 but I’m not sure, it might be based off of average harvest? I’m not sure. 4 healthy plants would yield more than what we are allowed to carry at one time (28g or 1oz).

in short, no. We can grow up to 4 plants without a license legally in Canada and there was no mass pollination event. I have grown outdoors 3 years now with non-feminized seeds. All 3 years I’ve had a male that I’ve had to kill quickly. Non of my females were ever affected. Also I should point out most people don’t grow their own weed so it’s not like every backyard has a plant now.

#Ottawa we are now under a Severe Thunderstorm Warning capable of producing a tornado. The clouds above also indicate they aren’t in a good mood. ⛈️
