Denver Post, 03 Mar 2013 – If it were as hard to grow marijuana as your article suggests, marijuana would not exist in nature. First, you can purchase "feminized" seeds on the Internet. Second, you can plant a seed in a pot, water it, put it in the window sill, and it will grow. Third, the idea that any plant needs exactly 12 hours of sunlight a day and not a bit more is nonsense. It’s called "weed" because it’s a weed. Laura Cary, Denver – — MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom
