    To be fair they did have David Nutt , who was main adviser to the government at the time and his findings where that weed and other drugs are less harmful than the drugs we can buy ie beer. This was not based on him being a hippy and wanting free love , it was based on scientific FACT but when the government was given these FACTS they did not like them and the got rid of him and replaced him with a puppet they could tell what THEY want the facts to be not what they really are. I also read the paper that was sent to the government when asked about the re class before it was done , and it states that there is NO way it should be class b and that the law will do more harm than the drug it's self . so they did try .

    "In the United Kingdom, use of drugs, other than opium, is not an offense. Possession and acquisition of drugs is an offense, and the UK divides drugs into three categories for the purpose of law enforcement. There are no special provisions exempting drug addicts from criminal responsibility.

    Cannabis and cannabis resin are grouped into Category B. The penalty for possession and/or acquisition of a Category B substance is a summary offense of six months' imprisonment and/or a fine of L400, or upon indictment up to five years in prison. In practice, the courts usually impose a fine in cases involving cannabis products. Trafficking (also to include personal cultivation) carries a possible twelve months in prison and/or L400 fine."


    if you were to grow 2-3 (big) plants for strictly personal use is this a sentencible crime?

    No in a word. If you had previous it could be, but with a clean record you defo would not be looking at custody.

    Hey man just thought id stop by to share my experience wid ya, personally i had 7 plants all about 2 weeks in to flowering, with one 600 watt light n a few fans and some nutes, they took everthing exept the plaster board i used to partition my room, i was then took to the station to make a statment and my solicitor just told me to tell them it was all for persy and that i could smoke it all in about 2 weeks, wich i probably could lol so i did this and then they took my finger prints and stuff, after that i was givin a lift home in a riot van, they issued me with a caution because it was my first offence... if theres one bit of advice i can give any grower its DONT TELL ANYONE FULLSTOP. Peace out brother hope you dont end up doin time a fine or community service should be in order, but i gotta say fancy doin that many lol

    thanks for getting back to me.I'm just getting so pissed of with this bad hype about weed and not the up side to it i.e the medical use. Also feeling that everyone around you enjoy's have a smoke yet we can't do a thing about it the goverment need the eye's open instead of looking at the negative side
