Strange Strain Names and Their Origins
If you are a cannabis smoker, chances are, you have heard a dozen or more strange strain names. You have probably been wondering how these strains got their names and who created them. The majority of strains with weird or unique names are hybrids of other strains. Some of these hybrids were named after where they were originally created, while other names seem to be a combination of the two or more strains from which they were made. What's interesting is that there are even strains that are named after the way that they make you feel when you smoke them. Some of these strains were purposely bred, while others were actually a pollination accident. Many of these strains were also bred by other farmers and growers after the original strains were created. Regardless of how they were bred, we sure are appreciative of the outcome. Below is a compilation of some of the best strange strain names and their origins. Enjoy!
Highly Effective Habits of Stoners
Many things can said about Mary Jane (Marijuana) in the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly sort of way, but society only focuses on the bad and doesn't see the highly effective habits of stoners.

All society sees in stoners are people with a substance abuse problem that is building up (thanks to the prevailing myth that it is gateway drug). But what of the other types of stoners that utilize this wonderful plant as tool to enhance their daily lives? As with everything, there are rules which serve not to bring you down, but to get you even higher while enjoying the experience. Below we will look at some of the highly effective habits of stoners.

Inspiring Women in the Cannabis Community
