US: R.I.P Old Ed: The Man Who Introduced Cannabis To Amsterdam
---
In Memoriam
Old Ed
July 9th 1917- June 7th 2007
In 1979, Old Ed came from Oregon USA to the Netherlands. He brought us
his knowledge of 'Sinsemilla' horticulture and his seeds.
For 5 years he lived in my house and I felt blessed in his pressence.
For me he was send by God. He taught me to smoke pure, grow organically
and communicate with the plants.
His seeds were the first in Europe to be commercialized by the Amsterdam
Lowlands Seed Company (1980-1984). That was the start of Eurocannabis.
He was a dedicated opponent of the anti-cannabis laws and saw that it
was an almost moral obligation to break them.
During the years he returned to Europe a few times and made many new
friends.
We will always remain grateful for his gift to the mellow people in Europe.
Please sign his register, so his children and grandchildren can
appreciate what their father and grandfather meant to us.
