Hi! I'm someone who deals with anxiety a lot. You may have seen my post about weed/hemp. I love myself some good hemp but unfortunately it's quite expensive, and I'm also a huge fan of growing and cultivating things (though with ADHD it can be quite hard to remember to take care of it...)

Is there any plant out there that's known (scientifically proven) to have relaxing effects without being addictive and also possible to grow without getting me arrested for growing it? It sounds like something that would be way too good to be possible, but I thought I would ask.

Thanks for the help in advance!

    Unfortunately, at-home hemp growth is still illegal and even if it wasn’t it would be just as risky without a license as if it was legal, because cops can’t tell the difference between weed and hemp. Partially because there isn’t really a difference and partially because they’re incompetent. And you’d have to be SURE it had less than 0.3% thc if you’re trying to rely on the court finding you not guilty afterwards, which is basically impossible because at least one piece of bud is going to have more than 0.3%
