i have both smoked and grown marijuana for several years now, but still consider myself very much a beginner. how did marijuana get to be what it is today. i dont understand how we got from indica and sativa to thousands of strains like blueberry that actually tastes like blueberries or grape ape that really tastes like grape. could someone give me a simple genetics lesson or hook me up with a website that has some good info?
i have wondered this as well... i know all about the history of the plant but i don't know how the strains came about either.
people saw a plant and said "hey lets smoke this well get high." then they did and were like "cool! im smoking this all the time" now i take on the responsibility
what always gets me is that the government would rather break it down and synthesize the components as medicine, rather than use it the way it grows. thats exactly how cocaine was created. the last thing we need is more pharmaceuticals!
on top of that wikpedia article......many strains/genetics were originated and imported from south africa along with many other places in the world.
