Dear
Dr Hemp,
Regarding the
question on your page about countries where pot is legal, I believe it is also
legal in India and Jamaica.
Regards,
Fran. |
Dear
Fran,
Yes, Jamaica of course,
how could I forget that? It used to be legal in India, but after pressure from
the USA they made it illegal in 1989.
I've since found out that Portugal
can also be added to Dr Hemp's preferred holiday destination
list.
Regards,
Dr
Hemp. |
Dear
Dr Hemp,
Do you have
any information of PCP?

Dear
Dr Hemp,
I would like
to grow a small number of plants, 2 or 3 for personal use only. Could you give
me any idea of the legal problems I might face if I got caught? I am also
worried about my boyfriend who does not smoke. He owns the house that we live
in - what would happen to him if the police got involved? Does it help that I
have not had any problems with the police previously?
Thanks,
Milla. |
Dear
Milla,
If you are
caught in the UK, you can be fined, cautioned or sent to jail - depending on
how nice your local police and magistrates are.
From personal
experience, I said that I was growing my own so that I did not have to mix with
the criminal element in town and I got away with a caution.
Your
boyfriend could possibly be charged with allowing the plants to be grown on his
premises, if the Police believed he knew about them.
Regards,
Dr Hemp. |
Hey
Dr Hemp,
I have some
acid on a zig zag, I got some weed and some crack, I was wondering if I could
make a primo like that with acid on the zig zag?
Thank you,

Dear
Rccgrl,
One of my dear friends
choked on her tea laughing when she read your e-mail. This is far too obscure
for me to even think about. If you really want an explanation - come back with
a clearer question.
Regards,
Dr Hemp. |
Dear
Dr Hemp,
The other day
when I smoked I started trippin hella hard. I was thinkin some weird shit
… its kinda hard to explain ... I was thinking about life and I was like
"What is life?" and I thought it was all bull shit and I thought I was goin to
die right there.
I just wanted to know if that shit was normal?

Dear
Dr Hemp,
If you don't
want to use tobacco in spliff to avoid addiction, what do you use instead? Do
you just pack a spliff with pot and nothing else, which obviously will get you
higher yeah?
Thank you for your time,
Beth. |
Dear
Beth,
Shade leaf if you can
get it - another good reason for being self-sufficient. There are herbal
alternatives that are nicotine free, but they tend to make you cough.
Personally, I advise using a vaporiser, a bong or a nice pipe.

Dr Hemp. |
Hey
Dr Hemp,
What's up from
Boston, MA. Growing plants for about 4-5 weeks now. Just wondering how to
distinguish between a male and female plant and how exactly to make them
bud?
Thanx,
BongLuva. |
Dear
BongLuva,
A female will have
little white flowers that look like small white hairs. The male flowers look
more like proper little flowers that open up and release pollen. Should you
find any of these, remove them immediately. Remember that Dr Hemp doesn't like
seedy greenery!

Dr Hemp. |
Dear
Dr Hemp,
I am usually a
complete space cadet, being willing to smoke anything that is cheap enough, in
particular, I have an affinity to super-skunk and a most delightful type of
local hash. So I built up quite a large stock and regularly make a sojourn to
my conservatory to partake in peace. My problem is that I was rather lapse with
my stash, and didn't notice how low I had gotten, so upon inspection I realised
that *Shock Horror* I had run out.
I have saved many roaches with some
tobacco/hash and was planning on making a couple o' big-uns out of that. A
friend said that it is actually more potent because the smoke THC collects in
the tobacco against the roach. Is this true or is he just having me on so he
can laugh at what a scutter I am?
Regards,
Desperate Doper. |
Dear
Desperate
Doper,
Sometimes the roaches can be stronger because the oil
collects, but fuck it - get off your arse and buy some greenery to roll a fresh
one with.

Dr Hemp. |
Dear
Dr Hemp,
I'm a student
in Manchester and ever since I've came here I've been smoking a lot, every day
I get very stoned! I've recently become worried about my health though as all
this smoking is taking its toll! I try to smoke only a few joints a day and
have quite a few bongs instead (the hubbly bubbly type). The skunk is very
strong though and it can turn my head into 'mush' I feel at times. I was just
wondering what is the healthiest way as I'm thinking that joints contain the
evil tobacco and hit the lungs at a higher temperature and the bongs (cooled
down and clean) seem to mash my head up. So what is the healthiest option if I
continue smoking many strong bongs per day will this fuck my brain up long
term? Or is this the best way considering?
Also, I'm in need of
shroom's, any ideas where/how to get some at this time of the year?
Thanx,
Dan. |
Dear
Dan,
Try cooling down the
bong by using ice in the reservoir or use a vaporiser. The healthiest option is
a vaporiser or eating it.
'Shrooms, no ideas, we don't get any Liberty
Caps down here until late September. Try getting a mushroom grow kit. I've
never used one myself, but they are supposed to work.
Regards,
Dr Hemp. |
Dear
Dr Hemp,
This is my
first time to your site I was impressed. I have a question, a friend just told
me that one joint has the same amount of tar as a whole pack of cigarettes. Is
this true? Also, is there any proof of harmful medical problems with regular
toking?
Thanks,
Jerome. |
Dear
Dr Hemp,
Why is fishing
hemp no good? Is it because it won't grow or there are no or very little levels
of THC?
I ask you this because I am thinking of growing it instead of
sending off for seeds and getting conned if it doesn't work. Could you tell me
a reliable place to buy it from please.
Regards,
Scott. |
Dear
Scott,
Fishing hemp is no
good because it's been sterilised, unless you go for genuine Dutch fish bait,
which you can get from seed bank companies. Have a look in magazines like Weed
World or dance music magazines.
Regards,
Dr Hemp. |
Dear
Dr Hemp,
I am a newcomer
to the pot smoking world. I have smoked from a joint already but I was never
told what to do really. I assumed I was just supposed to inhale the smoke. Is
that what I'm supposed to do and how does one take a hit from a bong? I know I
must sound really stupid to you seeing as you are such and expert to all of
this.
Please email me back soon because I plan on getting fucked up this
weekend.
Regards,
David. |
Dear
David,
Sorry this is late,
I was getting fucked myself last weekend [Editors note: in more
ways than one] and by now you've probably learned anyway.
To
take a hit from a bong, you suck the tube until the column is full of smoke and
then take your finger off the little hole. Relax and enjoy.
Regards,
Dr Hemp.
P.S. Make
sure you have something to drink handy. |
Dear
Dr Hemp,
I was just
wondering how much weed you have to eat to get high? Also how long does it
takes to kick in? Does it show up in drug tests?
Regards,
Hurley. |
Dear
Hurley,
About half a teenth and
it should take about one hour to kick in. Yes it will show up in a drug test,
unless you take measures that I have advised in replies to other letters to
this web site.
Regards,
Dr Hemp. |
Dear
Dr Hemp,
As ever your
wisdom knows not the bounds of this mortal reality. Know where I can get some
good seeds?
Thank you,
The Mushroom King. |
Dear
Mushroom King,
There are
plenty of seed bank companies on the Internet or advertised in cannabis
magazines. The most well known are
Sensi Seeds, though it
has to be said they are very expensive. If you're looking for a very good deal
on quality F1 cannabis seeds then I recommend
www.potseeds.co.uk.

Dr Hemp. |
Dear
Dr Hemp,
I love your
site and find it very informative. My problem is that I have two groups of
friends at high school. One group who loves to smoke pot and the other group
hates it.
I like to smoke pot and I also like to hang out with all of
my friends. I always try to tell the group (that hates pot) at parties that it
is a lot better than drinking or smoking. Is that true and what are some other
benefits to smoking pot than drinking? Also I only smoke pot maybe 2 or the odd
3 times a month and usually pretty responsible with it, but when I do it, I
usually smoke a gram to myself. Some days when I have smoked a lot of pot the
night before or do it for 4 days straight, I begin to feel dumb and forget
stuff, but the feeling usually goes away after a day. Is this just because I
had to much of a good thing, or is this pot really harmful to my brain because
I heard mixed reviews from people that pot doesn't hurt your brain cells or it
only damages the ones you don't use? The only reasons why I ask this is because
I don't want to be a burnout or jobless by the time I'm 25 and I also want to
be able to continue smoking pot responsibly.
Thank you for your time
and effort.
Your fan,
Zach. |
Dear
Zach,
Dope versus drinking is a
personal choice. I like both. If you smoke pot, you generally don't get into
fights.
It sounds like on this particular occasion you've over done it.
Just because you smoke pot, it doesn't mean you're going to be work shy or
burnt out. So relax and enjoy your life.
Regards,
Dr Hemp. |
