Hemp Break with Craig Lee & KY Hemp Museum

Demonstrating how hemp stalks were broken into fiber and hurd using a 1920's era hemp break, Craig also speaks about economic potential of industrial hemp to help Kentucky and it's farmers. His family had grow hemp for generations, as Madison Hemp & Flax Company, and Craig is continuing the tradition with a Hemp Feed for cows, using Canadian hemp seed cake.
Craig Lee has appeared in several documentaries on industrial hemp, including "Standing Silent Nation".
Filmed at KY Duby Day, May 2004 in Paducah.

Becuz these receptors are used to manage many of the bodys functions including emotions... our brains make their own cannabinoids (not THC tho)... Hemp Rope is Durable , Strong, Long Lasting: Possibly the BEST Rope You'll Ever Hold! Hemp Contains no psychoactive and eating enough to get high is close to impossible, doing so though would result in a laxative like effect... otherwise hemp is safe to eat (same way to many berrys in short time will have a laxatiove effect)

CALLED CB1 CB2 CANNABINOID RECEPTORS... chemicals created to work on the receptors and make it so ppl can get high had terrible side effects including suicidal tendencys and other dabilitating effects to the bodys mechanism.
