SOMA’S STORY:

by SOMA, Wed Oct 20, 2004

On Sept. 10, while I was in Spain, the police of Amsterdam raided my living space, where I had 11 magnificent cannabis plants growing on my roof terrace. I’d written several articles about them and the last thing I was doing was hiding them.

On Sept. 9, a young Frenchmen jumped out of the top window of the French Embassy. The Embassy is a block away from my apartment. The next was warm and sunny.

Feminized seeds occur as a result of stress, rather than genetics. All cannabis plants can and will make male flowers under stress. Certain strains like a higher pH, some a lower one. Some like a lot of food, some like much less. There is quite a lot of variety in marijuana genetics, and you can’t treat every plant the same way.
