- *NEW* closing segment Mind Munchies
WORD of the DAY:
Monoecy- male and female flowers on the same plant. Is an aberration used by breeders to create relatively stable monoecious hemp cultivators
Notes on the word of the day:
Cannabis is normally dioecious, which means unisexual
male or female flowers develop on separate plants, although cosexual monoecious or hermaphrodite examples with both sexes produced on one plant do occur. Cannabis is anemophilous (wind pollinated), relying on air currents to carry pollen grains from male plants
to female plants.
The hairs on a cannabis plant, usually white, turning
orange or reddish color when drying or curing, are the sexual organs, the stigmas, which are adhered to a bract, the bract is covered in hundreds of resinous trichomes, which produce an aromatic resin that we all know and love.
Normally, a male plant sheds its pollen and dies. Female
plants can keep on maturing for months, an flowers are formed if no pollination occurs.
Under
normal conditions, cannabis populations will produce about a 1:1 ratio of male and female plants.
Monoecy- male and female flowers on the same plant. Is an aberration used by breeders to create relatively stable monoecious hemp cultivators.
BECAUSE artificial selection under
cultivation for certain characteristics, such as female flower forms, result in abnormal sex ratios.
Stress, the environment , and genetic factors can influence ratios of male to females and co-sexual individuals.
“French cultivars are monoecious, with male and female
flowers appearing on the same plant, and are grown primarily for making specialty paper pulp, animal bedding, and construction materials. Breeding in
“Breeding in France today is mainly aimed at maintenance
of extant cultivars (conservative breeding) and at further reduction of their THC content. Genetic homogeneity of cultivars must be maintained by careful selection of monoecious parents each year.”
“In 1913 and 1914, Lyster Dewey published results of
the USDA’s initial hemp breeding experiments begun in 1903. ”

WORD OF THE DAY:
Harshini the exciter of sexual desire, the rejoicer, delight-giver, causer of elation
HIGH SCIENCE/RESEARCH FOCUS:
Today’s High science research focus, is bigger than the discovery gravitational waves!
New evidence may invalidate a lot of THC testing that is done after people die from accidents or natural causes. Research tries to tie MJ to deaths by looking at levels in the body after people die. Researchers/toxicologists have found what is described as “Oh my god” levels of THC in post mortem analysis.
Post-Mortem THC levels do not shed light on intoxication Levels
Researchers have found that the death greatly affects THC levels in the blood. Potentially discounting all roadside and death related research into cannabis.
If you take a blood sample from a living person, and it is low or within legal limit, but if the day that day, the levels shoot up to “oh my god” levels, due to the body breaking down and releasing it.
Coroners/toxicologists being asked to determine whether marijuana played a role in death state that “we couldn't really answer that question, it is not scientifically possible. because what happens is that if take you the sample after death the results produce artificially high, “sky high”, levels of THC that make you think “oh my god” by in facts its just an artifact from the body breaking down.
“We cant rely on post-mortem THC concentrations when it come to the impairment that somebody was at or the level they had in their the system when they were alive.”
The fresher the body, the lower the blood levels of THC.

“we acknowledge one key point of agreement with Berenson: Research does show that cannabis can trigger or worsen psychosis in predisposed individuals. Indeed, we have spent years educating the public about this risk.”
“We appeal to government officials, the public, and our fellow physicians to support the sensible regulation of adult cannabis use as a more humane and cost-effective alternative to prohibition. Our nation must embrace science, reject misguided moralism around cannabis use, and recognize that books like Berenson’s are exactly what he inadvertently entitled his own: Reefer Madness.”

Rep. Diana DeGette (D-CO) tweeted a photo of herself meeting with marijuana business owners who "are worried that the feds could step-in at any moment and shut them down. Marijuana is now a multi-billion-dollar industry in our state. We shouldn’t have to worry about suddenly losing a key part of our economy.”
