Hello all,
I'm a medical user of marijuana and for sometime I have been considering better ways to grow; naturally sane and insane, unaturally obtuse and particularly profane.

Anyways, I have been in a case of super thought for quite some time, and I am considering the possibility of breeding a faster growing/cycling photosynthetically sensitive hybrid of cannabis.

This may sound bizarre to even the educated pharma and biochemists amongst us, but if you stop to think about it, the idea isn't so insane. It would require a lot of resources, but theoretically at least, the possibility of creating an altered genetic strain of cannabis that grows 4 times faster is possible, providing you are able to provide say 1200W instead of 400W.

I know to an extent that a 1200W will cause a plant to grow faster than a 400W in 'natural genetics' for the cannabis plant.

I'm pretty positive though, the only reason the cannabis cycle is say 12/12 or 18/6 is because of the environments it evolved over, probably, millions of years?? As a result the plant has an 8 week flowering time, based on the suns power, surface area/volume ratio of leaves and the such, basic evolution stuff. But consider this, lets change that re-encode the rna so that the plant thinks that it is OK to try and do things faster.. I believe through trial and error alone this task can be achieved eventually (may take years hell i have the time ish).

Does anybody know if any work has been done looking into such a thing? For a medical marijuana patient this sort of research truly is the holy grail of modern medicine, even if the pharmas can't patent it, furthermore, it actually makes it viable as a medicine - bioavailibility and harvest time is extremely important no??

Please, anyone at all who wants to contribute ideas here, providing they aren't much more insane than mine )) please, go for it!!!

Thanks in advance.

Peace,
Denial
