How did such a strange plant like cannabis come to be in the first place? When and where did we first domesticate it? And why oh why does it get us high?Congratulations on telling the smartest stoner jokes on YouTube I've encountered so far. Also, I knew about the relationship between hops and Cannabis my senior year of college, when I looked through Munz and Keck's A California Flora and Supplement and found them together in Moraceae. That bit of trivia impressed my friends 40+ years ago. They have since been moved to Cannabaceae, where they are, as the video states, sister genera. I think that would have impressed my friends even more.
That's it for today's post. Stay tuned for the Sunday entertainment feature followed by Earth Day.
