The Cannabis Corner Ep #8: Life Sentences for Cannabis; Plus Pro Tips for a Great Grow

After five years of imprisonment for growing cannabis in California in 2002, Stephanie Landa joins us to discuss her charity Freedom Grow. Ms. Landa’s work assists prisoners of non-violent cannabis related crimes with pocket change for items like toothbrushes, shampoo and money for phone calls. We discuss the absurdity of a lifetime sentence for a cannabis crime in a zeitgeist so readily open to use it as medicine. Shouldn’t these cases be revisited? Couldn’t the non-violent lifer have a chance at redemption, perhaps through one of thousands of jobs in cannabis itself? How will this person ever find work with such a felony charge? Also, Farmer Adam interviews Jonathan Covert, a grower out of Denver CO. The two experts “talk the talk” regarding the intricacies of growing cannabis as a craft. This interview is for those listeners ready to approach the nitty gritty of breeding, seed cultivation, stacking, clones and the distinction and importance of male and female plants. Bring a pen and enjoy!
