Effects of salt water on marijuana plants?

What are the effects on marijuana plants? How much salt can they handle? I'm talking about salt in the air and salt in the water.

Can marijuana grow in beach type areas? Not in sand or in sand dunes, but where it is very salty and perhaps the water even has a little salt in it?

Salt is toxic to plants... The effects will look like over fertilization, It damages the roots...

Now, about growing in sand or growing at the beach... Im sure it could work, but the plant would have to be fed daily. because sand has no nutes.

Which would be a problem.

I was thinking of taking a boat to a deserted beach area like this: Google Maps

But to go there and feed it daily...or even eweekly with gas being so expensive is crazy...

On the western region of Jamaica they are having a drought now and have had for some time so that the fresh water is becoming briney from the sea water and it is not having a good effect on the ganja growing as salt or brine water is not good for the roots mon. Same reason we do not use softened water for our indoor grows. I did see some killer grows in the hills though.

This was grown this year on the Oregon coast, less than 100yds to the surf. The fog would settle in almost every night and sometimes wouldn't burn off for half the day, but we ended up harvesting a perfect crop just a few days ago. Nothing appeared to be over fertilized or anything like that. No weird see monkey mother fuckers crawling all over the colas. One might think with all of the "sea" products we use on our crops that maybe some of those benefits can be pulled from that "fog" and the plants could possibly bennefit from them. ;)
