Robyn schools Bud on the differences between Hemp and Pot.
There’s LOTS of different opinions out there, and also a TON of different strains that have been bred of the Cannabis plant, but my point of today’s comic is that Hemp can be bred to relieve a HUGE amount of economic and ecological problems our society faces. We can get rid of petroleum products, start conserving our trees (which also make the AIR we breathe) as well as have a good soy bean replacement. Hemp is a great cash crop (your farmers know what I’m talking about) and is easy to grow.
Jethro Tull rolls into your Monday with a great tune and the perfect song for today’s comic! Enjoy!
Thanks for the educational lesson in today’s comic. I didn’t know that there was a difference between the two.
You’re welcome! In all seriousness, I think it’s time we ended the ban on Hemp.
Told you they’d be disappointed.
Somebody-or-other’s hemp ranch used to have a sign: “You’d have to smoke a joint THIS BIG [illustrated with a joint several feet long] to get high on hemp.” I suppose someone would try.
I was originally going to have Jeff holding a 2-foot long joint to demonstrate what it would take…

These are not the plants you are looking for…… these are.
(A reference to a film from 1977 🙂
Hmmm… I suppose they could farm Hemp on Tatooine.
🙂
you know…I really like the layout of this one. Very visually pleasing.
Thanks, Eric! This time around I’m going for a more open look allowing me to expand on the backgrounds and the character’s poses. I’ve been digging it so far, and I’m glad you are too!
🙂
That teacher skit had me laughing! Well done! 😀
Thanks! I tried to use comedy as an educational tool today. Glad it worked!

Yeah, we can all thank William Randolph Hearst for depriving us of the good hemp. Stupid timber interests……
It just shows big money has been running our government for a LONG time now. It kills me to think of the damage we’ve done to our ecological system thanks to those big corporations after profits from petroleum, timber and synthetic fibers. Argh. I’m not even ranting about legalizing pot, I’m just wanting Hemp to be grown again. We need it big time.
Amen.
I didn’t know she was Dr. Robyn. (Three stripes on the sleeve of the gown = doctorate)
I was wondering who was going to catch that or not. Well done, sir! And yes, she has a doctorate in pot.
🙂
Wow…I’m learning a lot! Now if only they could have had a sing-a-long, like in Sesame Street!
Don’t encourage me to start doing Sing-A-Longs… I have a terrible voice. 🙂
