A survey launched by Harris Poll in collaboration with Royal Queen Seeds has revealed key information on how American citizens view growing weed. Check out the key findings here.
Royal Queen Seeds has cemented itself as one of Europe's largest and most trusted seed banks. Following their long growth in the European market, they’re now making their mark in the USA as a top cannabis seed bank, allowing them to continue striving towards their education and research goals within the cannabis industry.
Joining forces with the team at The Harris Poll, RQS asked a sample of citizens over the age of 21 a range of unique questions. Each was aimed at revealing the growing habits and outlooks of a large population, giving insight into their views on cultivation, legalization, and much more. Although localized to the USA, cannabis growers worldwide will certainly find these statistics fascinating. Check out some of the most interesting findings below:
• Legal right to grow: RQS asked survey participants about their views on legal cannabis cultivation. 59% of the respondents, including 81% of the cannabis users who participated, replied in favor of legal home cultivation of cannabis.
• Growing in confidence: RQS found that 49% of cannabis growers agreed that cultivation gives them confidence. In addition, 48% said that it gives them a sense of joy, 34% a sense of ease, and 44% a sense of connection with nature. Overall, these results show that growing weed could have a positive effect on mental well-being for some people.
• Growing at home: 26% of participants reported growing weed at home, with an additional 21% expressing the desire to try it at some point in the future.
• The quality of homegrown: 39% of growers felt that their homegrown was of a higher quality than buds bought from a dispensary, whereas the remainder felt commercial weed outperformed their own harvests.
• Playing music to plants: Surprisingly, 56% of growers reported singing or playing music to their plants.
• Starting from seed: The majority of participants (61%) plan to use seeds this year, with 21% opting for clones or seedlings.
Cannabis is slowly becoming destigmatized thanks to a push for research and honest discussion surrounding the plant. These results offer an insight into the slowly shifting opinions surrounding its growth. So, as a grower, do these results surprise you at all? Do you agree? Where do you stand on these key questions? Let us know your opinion!
