Guest reville Posted October 16, 2002 That is a very generous and ethical direction for your company. My one concern though is the fact that medical usage is not yet recognised here, and so there is a worry about what is done with the certificate, and any details such as name etc on that certificate. A medical need for pain relief is not yet recognised as a defnece to actively seek that relief, it is important that your orgainisation makes it clear what its privacy policy is. aND MY QUESTION IS.. Whats the best strain of cannabis you have for medical use, particularly in the treatment of chronic pain from severe back injuries. Im asking on behalf of a stricken relative.

Urbanhog Posted October 16, 2002 Your questions is fair enough... Yes, medicinal use with cannabis is still not well known in Australian Medicinal circles, and I think I am the wrong person to ask more details in the medicial use of cannabis. There's plenty of cannabis use medicially information in USA, Canadian and European based websites. That's why we are seeking more members in our Australian website so we all can learn and share more. Usually the person who wishes to get discounted seeds/clones usually will be asked to black out their personal details before posting the order to the suppliers, for security reasons to protect both the customer and the doctor. Hope that meets your privacy concern. REMEBER: Everyone is forewarned to check their local laws regarding cannabis cultivation. All customers are responsible for their own actions. DO NOT USE YOUR HOME OR GROW ADDRESS. Always try to use a post box or safe address, it is upto you to accept responsiblity before placing an order from the seedbank thru this website. It's bit hard for me to say which strains, sativa or indica is best for medicianl use, it all depends on the patient's condition and personal taste I guess. I have copied and pasted an posting/thread from the ozstoners website giving you bit more details and idea which strain to order: The Differences of Cannabis Indica and Sativa plants. Fat Leaves and Short Bush = INDICA Thin Leaves and Tall Bush = SATIVA Sativas are just about the opposite of Indicas. They are tall, thin plants, with much narrower leaves and grow a lighter green in color. They grow very quickly and can reach heights of 20 feet in a single season. They originally come from Colombia, Mexico, Thailand and Southeast Asia. Once flowering has begun, they can take anywhere from 10 to 16 weeks to fully mature. Flavors range from earthy to sweet and fruity. Sativa's higher THC than CBD equals cerebral, soaring type of high, more energetic which can stimulate brain activity and may produce minor hallucinations in senstive people. Sativa plants are taller, take longer to mature, have less chlorophyll and more accessory pigments (accessory pigments protect the plant from excessive sunlight). As Sativa strains have less chlorophyll than Indica they take longer to grow, mature, and require more light. Sativa typically takes longer to germinate and flower also, and grows more gangly then Indica breeds. Yield is usually lower than Indica, but is very potent. Thai Sativa grows taller and has a longer flowering period, so they are better suited for outdoors. Indicas originally come from the hash producing countries of the world like Afghanistan, Morocco, and Tibet. They are short dense plants, with broad leaves and often grow a darker green. After flowering starts they will be mature in 6 to 8 weeks. The buds will be thick and dense, with flavors and aromas ranging from pungent skunk to sweet and fruity. The smoke from an Indica is generally a body type stone, relaxing and laid back. Indica's higher CBD than THC equals a much heavier, sleepy type of high. Indica plants have a heavy, stony high that is relaxing and can help different medical problems. Indica yield is usually higher than Sativa, and shorter growing season. Better for indoor growing, because they don't get as tall. Indica plants are short, bushy, mature early, have more chlorophyll and less accessory pigments (accessory pigments protect the plant from excessive sunlight). As Indica strains have more chlorophyll than sativa they grow and mature faster. Combining different indicas, different sativas or a combination thereof creates hybrids. The resulting hybrid strains will grow, mature and smoke in relationship to the indica/sativa percentages they end up containing. Thousands of specially-bred, organically grown marijuana plants, wait to have their resins extracted at the GW Pharmaceuticals lab in England. Scientists at GW Pharmaceuticals, Britain's legal med-pot research facility, have announced that Sativa strains are more effective at treating pain than Indica strains. The company has a 20,000 plant garden in England, and intends to introduce cannabis- based prescription drugs by 2004. So....Reville, it all depends on the patient wish to grow indoors or outdoors, or wants more of a "sleepy" type or "uplifting" type of strain, email me at [email protected] and I will give you the supplier's email address and he will give you all the answers and advice selecting strains for your friend's both growing and medicinal conditions. I am not the supplier, as I am just promoting the website, just doing my share as one of the moderators for the site, as I am more of specialised in cannabis cooking than growing them Hope I have answered your questions best I can. Email me anytime for further questions, at [email protected] Thanks for your questions Reville, Urbanhog Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waterdragon Posted October 17, 2002 indicas yielding more than sativas? from research i conducted ages ago i'm led to believe that's not exactly correct. i read a book once that said indicas were better suited for indoors but this is the first time i've seen anyone claim this for indica versus sativa yields.

Urbanhog Posted October 17, 2002 I am not going into a debating in this shaman's forum, I think I am in the wrong place to debate about that, thats why we have the ozstoners australian forum, it's all depending of the strain, breed history and the grow conditions, and I think it actually meant that Indicas are better yeilds in short time than sativas, sativas are better in long grow time, if you get my drift.
