Akasha224 said:Marijuana subforum?
While there are many other message boards on the internet where it can be discussed, I'd prefer the maturity and clear-headedness of the people on the Nexus...
I like the idea; I'd be willing to help also. Kind of like the Cacti subforum...Akasha224 said:Global said:For now, there's always the "Other Psychoactives" subforum which isn't just about RC's and nootropics. There are indeed some marijuana topics in there.
I was thinking more along a subforum that more or less was modeled in the same way as the Mushrooms subforum (having separate sections for growing, methods of ingestion, etc.) Of course, this would be a lot of work, but I think it could make a good addition to the Nexus as many of the users here seem to enjoy Marijuana. And of course, I'd be willing to contribute in any way I could.
Just a thought next time some sort of addition to the site is being planned. :thumb_up:

Thanks

I saw on some video that marijuana meant "cheap tobacco" in Spanish. (is that so?)
Since Cannabis is the name of the genus, I think (if one comes to be) we should call it Cannabis subforum.
Then I have the question: what Cannabis means?
I read that "Canna" meant dog, and "bis" meant two, so from that source, Cannabis means "two dog plant".
Anyone want to comment on this?

I'm not sure where the actual word "Marijuana" came from, but I remember reading somewhere that they changed it from "Marihuana" to "Marijuana" to make it sound "more Mexican," feeding bigotry at the time it was made illegal.
I agree with the title "Cannabis subforum" if we're going to be technical (which I hope we will be).
