has two different regulatory structures, one where you can grow outdoor hemp and no one can really QC it or does QC it, and you can load it with pesticides, doesn't have to go through safety testing, and ends up sold into gas stations outside of whether Amendment 3 votes yes or no. So Florida is loaded with this.
You can go to all types of places here that sell pens that have no safety testing on them.

That's actual THC. And usually that stuff is more expensive, too, because the regulatory structure is probably overboard on that front because they have to grow it all indoors with lights. I mean, if you look at Colorado's grid, I don't know if it's still true today, but earlier on when they legalized something like two to four percent of electrical grid in Colorado was going to cannabis lights.

So like, you know, growing this indoors is stupid, particularly down here. Right. So that, that, that, that creates overhead. So if that bill passed, you still wouldn't be allowed to grow your own. That's, that's, that's a legitimate complaint. Like there shouldn't be, you should have home grow. You should be able to do that. Just like you can brew beer at home.

And the reality is most people who do go, go at home, they don't turn it into a freaking plant. Yeah.

No, no. Yeah. You can grow one or two plants and have plenty for yourself for a year. Like, you don't, you don't need to have an orchard of this stuff.

Yeah, that was a bad way, I think, for them to pitch it. It wasn't really necessarily honest that, oh, all the kids are going to start using it. Now, when we look in states that legalize, actually, it's the boomers that start using this stuff. They start using gummies and CBD and stuff for back pain and everything else.

There are actually several studies that they're showing that adolescent use goes down. It's no longer this taboo thing. And so I don't think that's a very strong case. Cannabinoid hypermesis is important. He brought that up. I'm glad Joe brought that up because that's the one area that gets overlooked in cannabis is that no one talks about that one disease.
