When I came to this sleepy french village three years ago no one I knew here grew cannabis, but this summer there are a number of people who have taken action after listening to my regular rambling about the simplicity & benefits of growing/smoking/vaping/eating it. In this case it is a person with a medical problem which causes them pain. Despite having a CBD shop in the next village to ours, the doctors around here are very reluctant to prescribe cannabis, favouring those good old pharmaceuticals instead.
Anyway, this person was on holiday recently and asked me to water their plants. And this is what I found.
A couple of real beauties.
Quite well disguised against that bush with the purple flowers.
Urine: the water of life
They were not willing to go to a specialised grow shop and buy organic fertilisers so I advised them to collect the urine of household members who are not using pharmaceutical drugs and water them with this, one part to ten, every second day. And it looks like this has really worked well for them.
After watering I sat here a while enjoying the aroma.
For those of you not aware, the urine of a healthy organic person should not be regarded as waste. It is 100% sterile and full of nutrients which the body cannot assimilate. A German lady from this village remembers a time when she was a child and the whole community would empty their pee into a large public container so that it could be shared with others. These days we have all but forgotten and we flush it down our porcalin thrones without a thought.
I don't normally tell people this but that first super salty pee of the day is for me. I drink a bit, wash my face with it and rub it into my hair. I don't even tell Sabrina! Coz I'm pretty sure I wouldn't get my first kiss of the day if I did ;) The rest of the day I pee into a container which will eventually end up in the garden, where it will complete its cycle back to the plants I am eating.
If you want to learn more about this subject check out my post here
Or read this book, which I highly recommend.
You will find it in my @survival-archive account here
Even my children Esteban & Luna know full well the power of their pee and are not afraid to drink it, which will stand them in good stead in the future should they ever wish to correct an imbalance or just keep themselves healthy in the simplest way available.
Love & Light everyone 🌱
haha good post! :)
do they need to hide the plants from police there?
@tipu curate
They ARE the police ;)
But generally speaking yes, one would be sensible to hide the plants. It isn't legal here. Yet...

Thanks for the update.
You're welcome @samstonehill 😊🌹 Next time will be the good one!
BTW, if you like the PUD. Give it a try to the PUM too 😁
Thanks. That will be useful if I get back to my one post per day routine. Comments can get missed. But not with this!
Yummy!!! Good on you, your now the local cannactivist 😜👌 I can wait to plant here, not even sure though, I think I'm at the end of season?!
Someone's gotta do it ;)
No idea for the seasons in Mexico? Am sure you'll figure it out quick enough.
Enjoy your adventure!
Very interesting. I have heard of peeing around plants to keep out animals that would love to eat your plants. I also have heard of composting pee since it is high in nitrogen. Cool way of using nature!
It seems the logical thing to do if one doesn't have access to other kinds of fertiliser. Though watering it down is very important. Undiluted it may damage plants.
Yeah i can see that, thanks for the share. Hopefully we get to see more updates on this. Cool to see something other then wine grapes in that part of the world, all though I might chose a Red Burgundy over a bag of ganja these days, lol!
Will do my best to get over there again to take another shot before they harvest. I just bought x2 30L wine making buckets and will be filling them up this week. It won't be burgundy but it will warm us up when the days are short and cold ;)
Awesome @samstonehill !😀
I knew pee had power, and that people use it for health issues...
But how to dose it..?
How much of your morning pee do you drink?
Generally I just have a mouthful in the morning. The taste gives us information about how our body is performing and if we are eating the right kind of food. If I don't feel good in my body I will drink more. Basically I drink it till there is no taste, usually around an hour or two into the day. I never met anyone who drank too much. But I did meet someone who fasted for 30 days, drinking nothing but his own urine. And he did not experience any negative effects. On the contrary, he said he felt awesome ;)
Download that book I mentioned from the link I provided. It will be much better at teaching you than me!
Ok Sam, i will check out this link😉
Thanks for your info!
Legal? Holy cow...its illegal and costs 450 dollars an ounce in nz
Biggest domestic crop by value
Not legal. I probably should have mentioned that in the post!
On the contrary the police are quite active at this time of year looking for larger scale production in the mountains.
I checked the conversion and apparently we pay even more than you. All the more reason to grow it ;)
i wanna see some budsssss!!!!
This is not a place I go very often but I will do my best to get another shot in a month. Should look very pretty by then!
