10 Unusual Facts About Cannabis Culture

Cannabis Culture

Now that the cannabis industry has started its engines and is growing at a fast pace, new information is constantly released on said subject. But what exactly do we know about marijuana besides its amazing health benefits and the fun recreational uses?

The culture of cannabis dates all the way back to the third millennium B.C., or at least that’s as far as we know of. This was all way far before growing marijuana became so easy, residing in just getting some seeds at a reliable seeds bank, purchasing a few pieces of growing equipment, learning some of the basics of cultivating, and waiting with patience.

But as according to the 420 expert adviser, you don’t always need a huge budget to grow cannabis for personal use, you should invest more in a good strain and a  light.

The first time marijuana was smoked it was likely after some tribe members found it among other plants and were attracted by the plant’s strong scent, which led them to try it and spread the word around.

For several millennia, the plant even became the go-to solution for not only medical purposes, ancient cultures made rope and fiber from hemp, although they used it as food and medicine, religious and recreational purposes as well.

Given that cannabis comes along with such an extensive culture and history, there is an incredibly huge amount of stories and quirky facts about it. Let’s take a look at the 10 most unusual facts about cannabis culture.
