Cannabis Chronicles

A few years back, Tweedy bird met some of her SSC friends at the Seattle Hempfest. We haven’t been getting out as much as we used to, our health not always being the best, so we can’t give a first hand report of the event this year. Fortunately, we’ve found an excellent accounting of [...]

FullFontal & the SSC
Many people knew about and benefited from or by FullFrontal (often called just FF), but, very few ever had any contact with him. The few that did couldn’t tell you very much other than he lived and worked near Quebec. Because I served a time as the middleman role, possibly I [...]

A previous posting here at the Cannabis Chronicles focused on “Strain Wiki”, which we believe is a very promising potential solution to documenting common cannabis varieties, but there are at least a couple other strainbases to be found on the Internet today. In looking back at prior efforts of this kind, we mentioned a pioneering [...]

Most everybody should know by now that the 3LB’s are a medicinal cannabis collective. Not only does that mean we are a bit unconventional in our outlook and approach to things, it also means we have a keen appreciation for the powers of collaborative effort. As we’ve said before, and as we’ll likely say again, [...]

While the 3LB’s were never officially a “seed company”, but we did have the opportunity to practice a bit of the alchemical art of selecting and crossing varieties in an attempt to breed better medicine. We never were the types of folks to just chuck pollen at every mother in the collection, we always tried [...]

Imagine for a moment, a flock of Canadian Geese flying overhead in their classic “V” shaped pattern. There’s a reason our geese friends fly that way, each cuts their own wake thru the air, but by flying in pattern, they experience less wind resistance and turbulence. Yes, it’s another beautiful example of nature showing [...]

We’ve truly been blessed to meet some exceptional people in the cannabis community. Some folks are literally “larger than life”, Milly Blunt, a former moderator at Cannabis World certainly comes to mind as an individual who was far beyond being colorful. Milly is truly an exceptional and unique individual, a dedicated caregiver and a true [...]

Just a few days back, we told the story of an Ontario Provincial Police roadblock that was designed to disrupt and discourage individuals planning to attend the Hemp festival that Planetary Pride (and others) have sponsored and put together for the last several years.
The circumstances were a bit different, but we have the unique displeasure [...]

As we continue our series of strain descriptions, we’d like to highlight yet another Dutch Flower’s release, this one was known as Sugar Klingon. It’s our understanding that at least a few dozen packs of Sugar Klingon were released by the Dutch Flowers team, but it’s release was timed before the hype surrounding DF had [...]

Blogging hasn’t caught on with Cannabis enthuaists and medical users as quickly as it has with some other niche communities.  There’s probably a number of reasons for that, certainly marijuana users are served by a great number of forums, so there’s probably been little need for folks to use the blogging medium to communicate.
One of the first independent Cannabis [...]

Today we have the distinct pleasure of introducing our first “Guest Entry” here at the Cannabis Chronicles, as well as introducing another cannabis related forum to the “link library”.  We feel quite fortunate that Mrs Fly agreed to give the Cannabis Chronicles a nice perspective on Grasscity’s forums, because it’s not a community we are familar with [...]

This upcoming “weekend” (Thursday thru Sunday) will mark the occasion of the 9th annual Hemp Fest held in the wild and beautiful primeval forests of Ontario, just under an hour drive north of Sault Ste Marie.  There are a great number of festivals put on by various local factions of the Cannabis community, so this particular [...]

Tweedy bird’s story - #2 - by Kannd/Tweedy bird

sweet tweet (pt. 2)
I had by now befriended about 150 or more, young adults, who all were friends of our son, and I had grown to appreciate their hair and clothes styles. I listened to and even played the music they did too.
These “kids” whom I [...]

Tweedy’s Story #1 - by Kannd/Tweedy bird

sweet tweet (pt. 1)
By the time I turned 39 I had birthed 4 children and had been married for 20 years. We lived modestly and never had any lack really, but things were not happy for me. After years of trekking to the doctors about constant pain, I had [...]
