I heard somewhere they used to have hemp plantations just like the cotton and tobacco plantations. I heard too that some of the Founding Fathers (George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, etc) grew hemp. They didn't smoke it to my knowlege, but from what I heard grew it to get the hemp fibers to make clothes, rope, sails, tents and other stuff for practical use.

Hemp has various commercial makes use of alongside with rope and fabric. I doubt the lads have been smoking it. the form of hemp flora used weren't the entertainment drug form. and of direction they brewed their own beer and whiskey. There weren't precisely various Beer shops and seven-11 around lower back then. BTW: Brewing your individual beer isn't unlawful, yet i think of making your individual whiskey (moonshine, vodka. etc) remains unlawful. My guess is it somewhat is a protection undertaking. those stills perform with a warm of warmth, under stress, and alcohol is flammable.
