Hey all! This thought came up after a comment in another thread but i didnt want to go too off topic. Is it legal to grow plant and grow food grade hemp seed in Aus? I've always loved the look of the plant and would love to have a legal substitute around -Cheers all!

Some people might find this worthwhile. Summer Talking Plants - The Wonder of Hemp with Lyn Stephenson, President Industrial Hemp Association of Victoria Lyn is passionate about hemp – its uses and benefits have been under-rated and even maligned. Hemp is non-drug cannabis and has been used for thousands of years. It is an annual plant, a beneficial rotational crop and requires less than half the water that cotton needs. It requires no herbicides or pesticides and can be used to produce a myriad of products ranging from food through to textiles and building materials. Lyn owns and operates a small farm near Kyneton where she has a licence to grow hemp. She is experimenting and learning first-hand the agronomy of hemp so she can share it with others. Join Lyn as she takes us on an exploration of the potential of this wonderful plant.

if, you grow hemp, you could shape the plant into a V shape, and partition, the two sides off, so no light goes through. now, you give one side vegging light and the other one, flowering light. once you headed, the flowers, you let the side which has just flowered, go into the vegging side of the artificial light chambers. after a while, you swap around again, after claiming the prize. this idea is probably not very practical (apart from fertilizer, pest control issues, and technical issues), but this experiment shows, that plant cells think, individually, and not central controlled. I hope you find this idea interesting, as it might suit small scale grow your own people, naturally, only where legal to do so. in short, I am talking about a plant which is always ready do, produce head!!
