Marijuana became illegal in 1933. The biggest objectors to that law were birdseed manufacturers because marijuana seeds were commonly used. They claimed that it made canaries sing better. (No, I am not joking).
Hemp is grown all over the world for rope, cloth and flour. I’ve seen hemp seed flour in nearly every grocery store I’ve been in. Even the bird seed cakes I put out in winter contain hemp seed.

Trouble was, too many overweight canaries from getting the munchies.

Yes MJ seeds work. Would give to my Male Canaries back in the 70s, would be very quiet for a while - then they would sing like no tomorrow.

We sold hemp and sisal rope in our hardware stores; never tried to smoke it, however…
