Since its concept, Grow Jamaica has been been plastered on social networks, been on the big screen and in paper back. The creator of this concept was Reverend Leroy James Campbell. Many may agree with the idea but hands are tied with red tape and most doubt something will ever come to fruition.
He strongly believed that cannabis was an all important source of nutrition, healing and production. He was an avid follower of the Lord and a teacher of health and fitness, he wrote and was an accomplished artist. His belief in marijuana was concreted in the fact that it could have adverse affects on economics, medicine, politics and the law.
His strife was to legalize cannabis because of its diverse uses and extremely beneficial medicinal properties. His website continues to spread his word and bust myths that marijuana causes loss of memory and is detrimental to the body. Other than its healing elements it does wonders for the earth, it is easily grown in most soils, it is hardy and is undeterred by weeds.
The wonder ingredient, THC serves as the most relevant medicinal vehicle especially in cancer patients. It assists in radiation treatment cutting down on nausea and throwing up and helps the patients to eat and sleep better. The cannabis plant has also shown to benefit epilepsy patients helping with the amount and the intensity of their seizures.
Hemp and Marijuana are of the same family and look very alike which is one of the main reasons why hemp cannot be legalized either even though its THC levels are much lower than that of Marijuana. Hemp is extremely useful as fuel can be made from the seed oil and ethanol and methanol can be produced from the fermented stalk. Hemp is extremely high in nutrition and contains fiber, protein and essential fatty acids.
grow Jamaica is about how the people of the country will benefit and not necessarily about legalizing a drug to enjoy for entertainment reasons. The people that are not in the shoes of the poor have far too often overlooked the pros surrounding cannabis. This is a struggle that undoubtedly will continue for a long time but it will still be fought.
