Smoking weed will make your kids look like monkeys if you smoke when your pregnant.

 

[dirtsurfr]

weed is bad for you....

X % of people, it chanhes, they tend to hang around 70% who try marijuana become heavily addicted the first time. And a common one with that, blaming music for them smoking

 

[Milovan]

The very first "myth" stated is that Indoor is better than Outdoor. You say indoor growers are mimicking outdoor? That's is a false premise. I look to create BETTER than outdoor conditions. I'm not subject to weather, shit tons of bugs. Indoor I have far better control, we are growin it better than is possible outdoor by giving better conditions than nature realistically provides.

It depends where you are I believe. Outdoors the only thing you need is water.
Some will buy liquid neuts etc...but no one needs lights, fans, coolers, heaters,
dehumidifiers, neuts, etc....so costly just to get high.

They say Indoor grown buds tastes and smells better then outdoor and
with outdoor buds the high lasts longer then indoors.

Feds will let up and reclassify marijuana = Myth

Marijuana will be legalized nation wide = Myth

"OMG purple weed!!! Purple weed is so much better!!!" ... Myth.

 

[Milovan]

Low temps is the only thing that will give you
purple buds = Myth

Vitamin deficiency will do the same and
50 degree watering or lower will also
turn buds purple.

Indoor is better then outdoor -

I believe this is a myth. Basically
indoor has been trying to copy
what the outdoor growers have
doing for the past forty years
up in the Emerald Triangle.

No they aren't. They are trying to provide the most optimal environment. Often times that mimics the outdoors, but not all the time. You can have absolute control over humidity, temperature, light intensity and duration, quantity of nutes and water given and when.

Some strains also turn purple. My purple haze definitely turned purple and it was next to other plants that never turned purple. Same nutes, same water, same lights, same air flow and temp, only difference was the strain.

Forks and spoons make people fat.

A favorite of mine. Smoking 1 joint is the same as smoking 10 cigarettes.

That's true. Depending on what you're comparing. The tar in weed is as much as 10 tobacco cigs.. But, give cannabis the chemicals that cigs have, and you have death on both sides. I hate resin in my pipes

So, marijuana impairs driving skills is not a myth!

 

[Ninjabowler]

I drive safer and am more aware while driving. Im not a heavy smoker but ive been driving for many years and smoke when i drive sometimes and i know, for a fact, that im better stoned. Could be different for others but i think DUI laws for marijuana are pretty stupid

 

[Milovan]

Agreed. DUI's for marijuana has to be one of the dumbest
laws on the books to date. Has no bearing.

Does anyone think that marijuana leads to more
high school drop outs is a myth?

Does anyone think that marijuana leads to more

In my case HS lead itself lead to me wanting to drop out.. fear of my folks kept me in HS.. I smoked very little in HS maybe 5 times a year if that.. and they were great days. Weed does not act the same to me now as it did when I was in HS.

Marijuana smoking makes you lazy -

Not so in every case. It's your call.

Myth... you don't get to magically pick it (if you are buying it) Growing conditions and strain composition-based traits will decide for you if you're growing and aren't paying attention.

 

[Figong]

So, marijuana impairs driving skills is not a myth!

Myth or not, I'd rather have someone going 20 miles an hour in the fast lane with their left blinker on.. on the expressway than a drunk driver getting on the freeway backward, and going head-on at 95+
