Leaf introduces Dr. William Courtney and Kristen Peskuski of Cannabis International. In this video you will hear about the medicinal effects of juicing (and not heating!) raw cannabis sativa plants. Has this worked for you? How do the results compare to those achieved by Shona Banda and others who have tried the Rick Simpson cannabis oil (heated) method? Please write to us and let us know what you experience and what you learn in your own research into the matter of the health benefits of marijuana oil and juicing the whole cannabis plant material. We are all community. We are all learning together.

We are also interested in the success Kristen is achieving by using cannabis during her pregnancies. Expectant mothers are naturally worried about the effects of marijuana on their unborn babies. We share their concerns and hope to learn as much about ganja use by pregnant women. Cannabis International will be leading the way in all of these matters and more. Stay tuned. Viva Sativa!

Top 10 Marijuana Myths

Posted by Ty on June 16th, 2011

The Top 10 Myths about Marijuana:

  • Stoned drivers suck.
    Not really. We may be somewhat paranoid, but we tend to focus intently on the task of driving and arrive home safely as a result. We recommend not driving while you smoke. Wait until you are no longer potentially impaired. How long is that? You’ll know. Not long. Just be honest with yourself and be safe.

  • Marijuana makes you hungry.
    Ok, yes, most of the time. But many specific strains are potent enough to drive focus towards tasks and thoughts other than eating. The best cannabis has even been known to Suppress the appetites of whole groups of talkative patients! One’s experience will always depend on the strain of marijuana smoked, time of day, and mood. The concept of set and setting are important to cannabis patients. The mindset of the patient and the environment in which the cannabis is used will always play a part in the end result experience. If you think you’ll get the munchies, you will. If you don’t, maybe you’ll forget about food altogether and express your energy through art or writing or dance. How will you choose to expend your energy?

  • Stoned people are lazy.
    Uh, no. For many people, cannabis can direct their focus and allow for creative, productive days filled with good quality work, all the while offering a sense of overall physical and emotional well being. A little attention paid to which strains of marijuana result in focus rather than apathy will go a long way in determining the path of your day. Neither GreenHitShirts.com nor StickyGuide.com were created by lazy people. What will you do when your life is enhanced with cannabis?

  • Pot today is stronger than in the 1960′s.
    Let’s face it, most black market mid-grade cannabis has been the same since lids were handed out by dudes with tinted glasses listening to Fleetwood Mac. Top grade medicinal cannabis sold in dispensaries in California and Colorado can be much stronger than your daddy’s pot, but in the medicinal case you know exactly what you are getting. Sometimes the THC percentage for flowers can top 20%. Smart ganja users just titrate by smoking less, getting the same “high”, saving money, reducing energy consumption, reducing harm to their bodies, and smiling much, much more. Concentrated cannabis such as hash, kief, ganeesh crystals, koil,hash oil, and silly puddy is produced so that patients may use only a small amount of the medicine while attaining maximum physical benefit. Smart!

  • Smoking marijuana will give you lung cancer.
    Dr. Donald Tashkin studied this subject and found the opposite to be true. Smoking marijuana can actually protect one’s lungs in the case of simultaneous tobacco smoking.

  • Smoking dope kills sperm and destroys sex drive.
    Scary, right? The truth is that in studies of human beings the scientific community continually fails to prove that marijuana harms our ability to reproduce. Smoking a joint would in fact be terrible birth control. As for sex drive, some people report an increase in sexual drive from heavy use of cannabis, while others feel a decrease in libido. Plenty of babies are born healthy into the cannabis community, so, umm, keep your hats on, gentlemen.

  • Smoking chronic makes you forgetful.
    If we step into the mind of a person influenced by cannabis, we see that the mind races and joyfully springs forth new ideas constantly. If the marijuana smoker tries to speak, inevitably the tongue will trip on the fast flowing river of ideas. Going upstream to retrieve an old idea, even from only a moment ago, can seem difficult because new ideas are flowing all the time. The hiccup can often be resolved and the memory can be retrieved moments later, but that single lapse is often misperceived by non-cannabis users as evidence of brain inactivity. In fact, quite the opposite. We are actually having too many thoughts to speak clearly. Advanced cannabis users get over this problem pretty quickly and can speak and work with ease, even while smoking a joint.

  • Using cannabis makes you artistic and creative.
    No, art and creativity are within you all the time. Cannabis can help you realize your full potential by revealing your complete self to you. Eventually, you won’t need the shortcut to unlock the creativity and art from within you. For some, marijuana can become a handicap, perhaps even dulling their ability to reach their full potential. We recommend using just enough, but not too much, if any at all.

  • Most Americans get their weed from Mexico.
    Nope. Homegrown rules the game. Sure, we’ve all seen plenty bags of Mexican brick weed full of sticks, stems, seeds, and Goodness knows what else. Americans smoke that schwag because they have no other choice. Even the worst homegrown cannabis is far superior to any outdoor marijuana I’ve seen from Mexico. With just a little skill and some tender love and care, Americans can easily grow all the marijuana we will ever need. Mexican dope is only here because of prohibition, and it speaks to the size of the American market as citizens yearn for a safer alternative to alcohol and tobacco. Buy American to make Mexico safe again. Prohibition creates violence. A regulated marijuana market for responsible adults would eliminate drug violence related to marijuana.

  • Marijuana is a scary, dangerous drug.
    First of all, nobody has ever died from a ganja overdose. Never. People around the world overdose on aspirin each day. Aspirin. Yet nobody dies from pot. Is marijuana completely safe? For most people, Yes. Some people with a propensity towards schizophrenia may exacerbate that tendency by smoking marijuana, especially when the patient is under age 18. Most other people find cannabis to be a mild consciousness altering drug which is to be respected and used sparingly. Some people are able to utilize cannabis daily as an herbal therapy and still function in society by holding down jobs, paying taxes, and even raising children. For such patients, marijuana is seldom, if ever, a party drug. For them, marijuana helps with muscle relaxation, for example, which allows them to work and be productive, happy citizens. Most people use cannabis a few times in their life and that’s it. No big deal. Some people get addicted. Know yourself, be honest with yourself, and you will be All Right in your relationship with cannabis sativa. Simple enough.

High Minded Dope quote of the day:
“It is possible to stop most drug addiction in the United States within a very short time. Simply make all drugs available and sell them at cost. Label each drug with a precise description of what effect – good or bad – the drug will have on the taker. This will require heroic honesty. Don’t say that marijuana is addictive or dangerous when it is neither, as millions of people know — unlike “speed,” which kills most unpleasantly, or heroin, which can be addictive and difficult to kick. Along with exhortation and warning, it might be good for our citizens to recall (or learn for the first time) that the United States was the creation of men who believed that each person has the right to do what he wants with his own life as long as he does not interfere with his neighbors’ pursuit of happiness (that his neighbor’s idea of happiness is persecuting others does confuse matters a bit).”

High Minded Marijuana Quote of the Day:
“The world is like a ride in an amusement park and when you choose to go on it you think it’s real because that’s how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and around and around and it has thrills and chills and it’s very brightly coloured and it’s very loud. And it’s fun – for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they begin to question; is this real? Or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, and they say, “Hey, don’t worry, don’t be afraid, ever, because… this is just a ride.”

Ganjapreneurs Open SPARC: The Apple Store of Marijuana Shops

Posted by Ty on October 3rd, 2010


Fast Company Magazine covers SPARC, one of the most aesthetically pleasing cannabis dispensaries on earth. The media is ringing a very loud bell, and legalization will be the result. We support a vote of YES on Prop 19. As a newcomer to California, I cannot forget the fear that exists in states with no medical marijuana, such as Florida and North Dakota, and even New York. Can you believe it? New York of all places has no provision for providing medical marijuana to patients. California cannabis is still being enjoyed in New York, but at a very high price. Medicine shouldn’t be so expensive. Legalize it for all the brothers and sisters in all the states that will follow with legalization of their own. Federal legalization…sniff, sniff, can you smell it?!

Green Hit Shirts medical marijuana T shirts cannabis slang name of the day: Tea House

Getting high is not the goal of many medical marijuana patients. During the International Cannabis and Hemp Expo in San Francisco, California this weekend, I heard several patients asking about standardized testing statewide at a cost effective rate which would encourage a higher standard of growing marijuana just by the nature of the marketplace. High CBD strains are sought for their pain relieving properties while minimizing the opportunity to get high from the THC which has been strategically minimized.

San Jose Police Chief Says Legalize Marijuana in California

Posted by Ty on October 1st, 2010

Joseph McNamara, Chief of Police (ret.) in San Jose, CA speaks in favor of a vote of Yes on Prop 19, to regulate, tax, and control cannabis in 2010 in California. Joseph McNamara speaks on behalf of L.E.A.P., Law Enforcement Against Prohibition, and answers questions about the fear of people drive under the influence of marijuana. Chief McNamara knows police time will be freed up to deal with stoned drivers if prohibition ends. The fear that kids will get marijuana easier is simply false, as children say now that they get marijuana easier than alcohol because adults have little incentive to provide alcohol to them, whereas with cannabis kids are actually the ones controlling the street trade in many inner city areas because police can’t go after the kids as readily as the adults. Make marijuana illegal, and as paradoxical as it sounds, and you will make marijuana more difficult for kids to acquire.

The legalization of marijuana is a hot topic now around the world, as all eyes are on California where they are known to have the best brownie recipe and all the best medical marijuana to give it life. Growing marijuana outdoors is a high fine art in the hills of Mendocino County and Trinity County and, of course, Humbolt County California. Marijuana seeds put Marc Emery in a United States prison. Jay-Z, Jimmy Buffet, and Nas have all been known to enjoy marijuana with no regard for how long does marijuana stay in your system. How to grow marijuana is a curiosity which sends many to the internet to find community at sites like Marijuana.com and STICKYGuide.com

Months After Death, Legendary Pot Activist Stokes Prop 19 Debate

Posted by Ty on August 27th, 2010

Heed these wise words below from the Giants in the cannabis movement, Dan Herer, son of Jack Herer, Steve DeAngelo and Ed Rosenthal. (If any of those names are new to you, hop on Google or search here at Green Hit Shirts.) I agree with all three gentlemen, wish them well, and standby their sides in support of Prop 19 to Regulate, Tax, Control Cannabis in California in 2010. Please register to vote immediately. Once you are registered, I recommend voting by mail. Yes! on Prop 19

The following is an excerpt from a letter written about Prop 19 and Jack Herer’s support of the initiative, written by Dan Herer, Jack’s eldest son:

Jack railed against Tax Cannabis 2010, now Proposition 19, and its plan for limited legalization and local authority to tax and regulate marijuana sales to adults 21 and above. It falls far short of what he wanted. Jack ‘wanted it all,’ and Prop 19 is just a part of that dream.

Unfortunately, Jack passed away before Prop 19 made the 2010 ballot; so many people think he would still oppose it. We don’t believe that, and we ask that everyone stop saying he would cling to that position as we move toward the Nov. 2 vote.

As his family, we want the world to know that the last thing Jack Herer would want is for Californians to vote to keep Cannabis illegal. He was smart and had the political savvy to know that once a measure is on the ballot, the time for bickering has passed.

That is why he campaigned for Prop 215 despite its shortcomings. That is why, were he able, he would now be telling voters to rally around and Vote Yes on Prop 19.

Words by Ed Rosenthal:
The reality is that this Initiative, Prop. 19, is here, now. There isn’t another one on the horizon and it is important that this one get passed. It will set off a tidal wave across the country and around the world. It will light the first beacon in all the world signaling freedom from harassment.

IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT PROP 19 PASS. Can you imagine going into a voting booth and voting no on legalization? You must be crazy or just insane. Think and think again until you get it right, and don’t believe everything you think. Listen to other people- to the collective wisdom of millions yearning to be free from the police state that the marijuana laws create.

If you can vote here, would you be proud to tell your children or grandchildren, “I had a chance to vote for legalization in ’10, but I didn’t think the initiative met my standards.”?

Get real. When this initiative passes it will change the paradigm worldwide. It will be as important as the felling of the Berlin Wall. This initiative will breach the dike of prohibition. “And the walls will come tumblin’ down.”

– Ed Rosenthal

Finally, words by Steve DeAngelo:
I would like to add my voice to Ed Rosenthal’s. As one who initially questioned the wisdom of putting Prop 19 on the ballot, I would like to send a clear message to anybody who is still on the fence: You must vote in favor of Prop 19. Not only that, you should give as deeply as you can to the campaign. There are hundreds of thousands of people, all around the world, rotting in prison cells because of cannabis prohibition. Until the last of those prisoners walks out of their cells, it is incumbent upon all lovers of cannabis, and lovers of freedom, to take full advantage of every possible chance to change the law. Yes, Prop 19 is not perfect. And yes, it may have been wiser to wait until 2012. But it is ON THE BALLOT NOW, and that changes everything.

It’s as simple as this: we owe it to our imprisoned brethren to do all we can to pass Prop 19.

Feel free to spread this message,

GreenHitShirts medical marijuana T shirt pot slang name of the day: Stash
We’re going to stretch the definition of stash to include a nook where you can store some of your marijuana apparel, your marijuana card, any marijuana designs for marijuana art which you may be working on should also be grouped together to be your “stash”. Of course, if you buy marijuana and store it in this same area then we will include your bag of marijuana in the collective “stash”. The marijuana itself becomes the stash in this case, further deepening the definition to those who may be reading the marijuana term for the first time. Those of you who frequent cannabis dispensaries, or just one cannabis dispensary, will have attained enough knowledge to recognize much of the marijuana slang readily. One might not choose to hide one’s cannabis t shirts, even if they are blatant legalize marijuana t shirts, but if you do, and you keep it with your fat sack of marijuana, we’re calling it all your stash. Phish stash if you keep good music there. Cheers, friends!
