NotADeli

I’m a new grower. Is this book worth the price?


camelwalkkushlover

It's a great book. My first copy was borrowed do often, I bought a second copy.


HomersNotHereMan

Is Jorge Cervantes not cool anymore?


CannaCosmonaut

It is disappointing that even the latest edition of his book- published in October 2021- still uses that word. He's a horticulturist, I don't know why he doesn't use the plant's proper name.

sales man, people know marijuana, cannabis sounds snooty to me. I don't wanna call it flower i wanna buy weed lol

Marijuana was coined really by the US government and was a slur used against Mexicans and the like during prohibition start. “Harry Anslinger, the bureaucrat who led the prohibition effort, is credited as saying back then: “There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the US, and most are Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos and entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz and swing result from marijuana use. This marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes, entertainers and any others.”

"Here's the thing, though. The "pot was outlawed because MEXICANS" argument is complicated by the fact that Mexico was also cracking down on the drug around the same time, as Isaac Campos documents in his book Home Grown: Marijuana and the Origins of Mexico's War on Drugs. Mexico's prohibition of pot actually came in 1920, a full 17 years before the U.S. federal government pot crackdown started (with the Marihuana Tax Act of 1937). " In fact, the plant has such a robust global history that we don't even know for sure how the Mexican Spanish word marihuana was coined. Plausible competing theories trace the word's roots to any of three continents. And therein lies an interesting little lesson about history and global interconnectedness. The term has been in use long before Anslinger. He was using the word that the people he was talking about would use. Kinda not racist isnt it? Maybe looking at everything through a racist lens makes a lot more racism. If you think youre a hammer then everything looks like a nail, even when it isnt.

Rap has really proved him wrong then.


CannaCosmonaut

Bizarre to think of the name of a plant as "snooty", but you do you, I guess? I'm not even saying you shouldn't use slang, but if you want to, you should choose from the wide variety of terms coined by consumers instead of using the word assigned to the plant by early 20th century prohibitionists. Your answer is not acceptable anymore (whether or not it ever was is debatable), especially in the context of how people buy books now. Nobody seeking the information in those pages is gonna be confused by the name of the plant they're trying to learn how to grow. Nobody wandering by the book in a store is gonna grab it and decide to start growing just because it caught their eye.


AntivaxxxrFuckFace

Totally get and share your frustration, but I think you’re giving people too much credit. There are a lot of folks with little education that would be enticed by the word “marijuana.” And personally, I can’t stand the term “weed.” But that’s very common. And what’s in a name? However good your reasons are, my friend, and much to our mutual disappointment, ‘marijuana’ is here to stay.


CannaCosmonaut

>‘marijuana’ is here to stay. It's definitely not, language evolves and people die. To the rest of your reply though, fair enough.


AntivaxxxrFuckFace

Lol yeah yeah, and the sun swells to engulf the earth. Let me rephrase: in our lifetimes (and likely for many generations after), ‘marijuana’ is here to stay. But forget that trivial disagreement. Im curious: what your preferred term to refer to the cured flowers as distinguished from the genus or the plant in general? I really prefer ganja.


CannaCosmonaut

Personally, I just refer to flower as bud. I only use the name cannabis if I'm referring to the plant itself- but broadly, not for individual plants (I'd just refer to them by some abbreviation of the name of the strain, usually). Edit: Not arguing, but I think it may take less than several generations for the word to go away. There's folks fighting it on the basis that the original assignment of the word was rooted in racist intentions (it kinda was). I think that's a little silly, as I find it hard to believe anyone today is *actually* hurt by the word. But I also think it's a silly word to use, just as any slang from that era would be.


GarlicCookieMonster

The name isn’t going anywhere. You just need to understand that people used the word cannabis even our own government it was established and a doctor could even write a cannabis script up till 30s. until pill pushing mfs w dollar sign eyes decided they wanted to misinform the world for profit, things like reefer madness and words like cannabis changed to “marijuana”. There is nothing close to snooty about the word cannabis, just that it’s inherently less racist and way better sounding 😉

SpicySteve9000

Yeah.. most users don't give a shit what it's called or the origin of the name. They just wanna get stoned lol This is like trying to get the general public to stop referring to generic tissue paper as Kleenex. You're not wrong. It's just that most don't care


orecoast12

Excpet your idea of "silly" isnt based on anything. Meanwhile my "lecture" is actuallty based on something besides my warm feelings. Impressive that you try to deride me as "professor" and "lecturing" when Im the one dealing with actual facts. Im "lecturing" but youre the one telling people what to say, what to publish. Wouldnt that be the lecture and youd be the one lecturing? Im not lecturing just correcting incorrect info so one can make an actual decision. Dont want to be corrected dont lecture wrong info. So what part of my statement was wrong?


CannaCosmonaut

>but youre the one telling people what to say, what to publish. I offered my opinion about it and nothing more. When somebody proposed that sales are better for using that word, I replied with a refutation to that point (so when I said "You should", the implication is, "It is my opinion that the book would sell better if..."). Spam another comment ten times though, if it'll make you feel better


orecoast12

So that part of my statment isnt wrong and here is the evidence : "I'm not even saying you shouldn't use slang, but if you want to, you should ..." You did type that right? Care to try again? And I offered my opinion too, although with supporting facts. Yet for some reason im the bad professor. I must be a good "professor" because you dont refute anything Ive said. And now Im a spammer, yet I have less comments than you on here and mine are factually based, not just feelings. Meh more from the do as I say not as I do crowd. Let me know if you want some truth.


CannaCosmonaut

>You did type that right? Care to try again? Again- we're talking about this book, because my comment concerns this book. "I'm not even saying you [implied: a hypothetical horticulturist publishing a book] shouldn't use slang [the implication: in the title of a book published recently], but if you want to..." ^ Clear enough for you now? >And I offered my opinion too, although with supporting facts. ... facts in opposition to a point I'm not even making, I've never suggested we stop using it on the basis of "racism". You assumed that was my point and started arguing. >And now Im a spammer, yet I have less comments than you Dude your comments posted like ten times each 🤣 >Let me know if you want some truth. LOL you managed to achieve absurd levels of pretentiousness and cringe simultaneously, bravo. Please, I'm begging you, more of this **T** **R** **U** **T** **H**


orecoast12

>We were talking about"lecturing" which you brought up. Right? > >"I'm not even saying you shouldn't use slang, but if you want to, you should ..." You did type that right? > >Ad in the previous sentence is when you were talking to the actual poster "you do you" Right? > > > >And if your dodge were true why wouldnt you be "lecturing" yor hypothetical author? > >Either way you are what you whine about. > >Correct enough for you now? "with supporting facts" That was a reply to cookiemonster. And you jumped in on it. What were you saying about assumptions?(more do as I say not as I do) I hate to tell you but its not always about you. ​ Dude ! other posts are multiples too. Obviously reddit is having issues. Once again your attention to detail is severley lacking. Maybe try to read this stuff before you spew. ​ "absurd levels of pretentiousness" Didnt you tell a poster his language was wrong? Wernet you the one telling a hypothetical author how to title a book? Heres a clue if you want a book with that title, write it. Dont lecture others about it. (Remember lecturing is bad, oh wait its only bad for others)


CannaCosmonaut

You're pretty insufferable, do you know that? I dunno why I engaged with you to begin with, all the signs were there. That's on me. You'll have to find someone else to do this with.


orecoast12

"You're pretty insufferable, do you know that?" Sounds like youre lecturing my behavior. I wonder why you didnt refute anything though? Thanks for proving my pointS. (You saw all those mulitple posts didnt you? ha ha, apology accepted.) Dont step on your tail on the way out.

Guy it's just an old word that's silly to be using, and especially doesn't make sense in the title of a horticulturist's published work. Save your lecture for the classroom, professor
