You can grow your own tomatoes and make your own beer and wine too. Not a good case about market opportunities. O, btw. That weed you just purchased from an illegal dealer just had it stuffed down their pants... Yuk! I also heard it was laced with something that turns people into zombies. O, and for the people that have real medical issues, all their epilepsy issues came back as they were given the wrong strain. I always remember the people in college talking about the crap they were sold at times. Not consistent quality!

Also conforms the export to the usa as the previous post comparing china. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://apps.fas.usda.gov/newgainapi/api/report/downloadreportbyfilename%3Ffilename%3DIndustrial%2520Hemp%2520Production%2520Trade%2520and%2520Regulation_Ottawa_Canada_8-26-2019.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwjDjKDLgrfnAhXJmHIEHfAVAccQFjAAegQIBBAB&usg=AOvVaw0aZT0tsEE-Qyy3QlP87aEC
