"Nice but i like the soil thing but the use of the drug is a bad thing as a moral booster because if supply runs downt then you have moral dropper so as a farming booster and as fabric i approve"That's like saying don't drink alcohol cause when you run out you'll get depressed because you have no more alcohol. If your relying on that to boost morale, then it doesn't matter cause you already have a very low morale. Do you find this valuable? |

Cannabis is not that difficult to grow if you know what you're doing, even with minimal resources. Seeds are in my BOB.

Could be considered a motivational tool also. You know you have to get something together so you have a steady supply. Also, less addictive than alcohol and tobacco.

What about trade? Cannabis would definitely have some trade value and it is light/compact once dried/cured. You could even grow indoors/greenhouse year round using the natural sun via clear plastic roof and supplement just a few CFL lights to exploit the photoperiods required during different stages of growth.As for using the hemp of it, totally different plant. It is like comparing a Great Dane to a Chihuahua. If you could get your hands on some hemp seeds, you would find they use less nutrients from the ground, most of what it does use is returned to the soil after you chop it up and let the leaves decompose back into the ground, and you would have about double the fiber in the stalks as marijuana plants focus their energy on creating flowers, and hemp focuses it's energy on it's leaves and stalk, and the stalk is what you want. MJ also has solid stems where hemp has hollow filled with fibers. Definitely a good crop to throw in your rotation once you have enough food. Do you find this valuable? |

im all for the cultivation of hemp and the careful nurturing of marijuana. both would prove to be valuable, hemp for its fibers, clothes, blankets, rope, bags, you name it, and the herb, well shit thats its own reward. i guess you could trade it for ammo or meds, the best thing about it is that its not like a super serious drug that you get hooked on and fiend for. good to take the edge off of living in a ravaged world swarming with undead people.i vote yes on prop. pot.

Just what you need, someone stoned on lookout. Get real people. If I caught someone stoned on their watch I'd toss them out to the zombies. Same with drunks. If my life is depending on you then I'll get rid of the ones I can't depend on. 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

Obviously recreational drugs are not suitable for occupation.Using cannabis as a luxury for when the day's chores and tasks are completed could be very useful. Use it as incentive, both for yourself and others. Moderation and responsible use are vital. 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

"Just what you need, someone stoned on lookout. Get real people.I don't think anybody is saying "lets grow it so we can be stoned all the time". I don't know about you, but I'd love to be able to come back after a day of blowing z's heads off and raiding for supplies and be able to rip a couple g's to take my mind of the situation. 1 out of 3 found this valuable.

So you are saying that if you were on night watch and bored out of your skull you would't be tempted? And what about everyone else in your group? Could you really trust them not to do it while on watch?Don't say that people don't get hooked on the stuff. I've got a cousin that is now in prison for the third time over it. He was in for just over a year the first time. He got busted with it two days after release. Second time he spent over two years. Still wating to see how much of his life it will cost him this time. But no, he's not hooked on it. 2 out of 3 found this valuable. Do you? |

"So you are saying that if you were on night watch and bored out of your skull you would't be tempted? And what about everyone else in your group? Could you really trust them not to do it while on watch?Of course I would be tempted. Why wouldn't I be tempted. That doesn't mean I would. There is a difference between a lack of control and being addicted. Just because your dumbass cousin lacks control, doesn't mean other people will fiend for it the way he does. It's all in your head, buddy. And I wouldn't go around just handing bags of bud to everyone. I wouldn't with alcohol, either. You know how on ships back in the day, the sailors would get their ration of rum...I'd do something like that.....and then even if they did get caught doing that shit while on the job, then they'll lose their ration for a while, it's that simple. 3 out of 4 found this valuable.

"and then even if they did get caught doing that shit while on the job, then they'll lose their ration for a while, it's that simple."There is a considerable difference between getting stoned on the job and getting stoned while on guard duty. I take it none of you have been in the service huh? When you have someone out there actively trying to kill you the last thing you want is for one of your people to be fucked up in the head. Maybe you could sleep well knowing that some one else who is supposed to be keeping you safe is stoned. I couldn't. IF they get caught the first time? What if the first time is the time the zombie horde is approaching? Do you find this valuable? |

"So you are saying that if you were on night watch and bored out of your skull you would't be tempted? And what about everyone else in your group? Could you really trust them not to do it while on watch?Hahaha. First off, there is no physiologically addictive substance IN cannabis. A user can only form a psychological addiction, but that can be the true of any activity. There isn't a problem with the drug, it's the problem with the user. Stupid and irresponsible people, like your cousin. Personally, somebody who severely lacks perspective and judgment to that degree, I wouldn't trust with a weapon, much less my vigil. How can this same logic not be applied to alcohol? Are you going to run a dry camp? They're truly analogous, maybe only with the exception that alcohol CAN form physiological addiction. 3 out of 3 found this valuable. Do you? |

I'm not a tea man. I drink. But yes, I would run a dry camp. The only one allowed any booze would be a doctor if we had one and only then if other alcohol was unavailable.It really doesn't matter if it is physiological or psychological. Addiction is addiction. 2 out of 3 found this valuable. Do you? |

They would be two completely different kinds of enemies. Have you even ever been stoned? do you know what it's like? You can function. You can shoot, you can drive, you can do all the things you normally do. I'd ban alcohol from my camp long before I'd ban weed. 0 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

But seriously, I don't think you truly grasp how dire survivor morale can reach. I don't think you grasp the experience of true hopelessness and despair.You rob your followers of reasonable luxuries, and you're going to find yourself with a couple bullets in your back. Now matter how great a leader you may consider yourself, if you run your mean without hope, without reward, you will find they disregard your leadership. Do you find this valuable? |
