5 Cannabis Facts


1. Beer & cannabis are COUSINS! Beers hops          are in the same family of flowering
    plants as cannabis. We are family.
                                 
                                     

2. Cannabis has been legal for personal use in        Alaska since 1975, and it’s still legal
    today. Go moose!




3. California was the first U.S. state to ban              cannabis a century ago. Kind of ironic,
    don’t you think?



4. In 1976, an art student changed the                    Hollywood sign to read “Hollyweed” after
           the passage of a state law                               decriminalizing cannabis. That’s more like it.


5. The first thing ever bought and sold across the Internet was a bag of cannabis

Hatchlings and juveniles are grey with a massive emerald green eye but change to the adult colours around 1 m. Most males are bright green, sometimes with black between the scales but in the Cape Provinces they are usually black above with green, yellow or orange sides. Females are brown in colour.
