I put hemp seeds on my breakfast granola, yummy.

That looks like less of a maze and more of a, ya know… field. I guess it’s not fair to compare it with corn mazes that grow more vertically.
Otoh, I imagine that most of the visitors will be in such a state of mind that a few houseplants would seem like a maze.

are cannabis plants shorter than most corn varieties? (beats me). i’m so clueless ([puff/hold]) i thought they had to be corn mazes so they could be maize mazes

They’re a similar height (6-8’), but much bushier than corn.

I worked at the MN Renaissance Festival back in the late '70s. Performers that were there for the whole weekend could camp out onsite. Near the campground was a huge hemp field that had been planted by the army in WWII. The mood at the campground was generally a bacchanal, and I remember people hiking out of the crop with bales on their backs. They would dry it on the tops of their tents and then smoke it at night. Lots of headaches in that camp, but they needed to rely on the booze and psychedelics to alter their moods.

I bought some hay from a local farmer and he cryptically told me he also sells “hemp.” I assumed he meant non-psychoactive, so I said “Oh, what do you use that for?” and he - to his credit - was able to improvise a non-incriminating list of medicinal-sounding uses and completely avoided saying “to get high.” I felt like such a narc.
