yup, you should give it try, definitely
I just trying to point out,
that Government taxation here is twice as big as illegal dealers/importer/growers,so
the blackest scenario is happening here.
Have no idea how it go in US/Canada, however in Spain/Portugal you may grow up to 4 plants per person for personal use quite legally.
Speakin` about difference between so called >medical< versus >street< herbs -
well
I suppose,that it is : none, zero ,null
if
we considering the same species grown in similar conditions.
However :
There is plenty of variety to chose. Difference is hidden in CBD and THC proportions which plant produced .
More THC = bigger, better "high"
More CBD = more sedative, heavy effect of smokin`, aka less suitable for fun
