SEVERAL new strains of marijuana (ganja) bearing the name of Julian Marley will become available in the American market in the next few months.
According to www.streetinsider.com, Marley — son of reggae king Bob Marley — has partnered with company Drop Leaf to launch Julian Marley JUJU Royal Premium Marijuana.
“I am happy to speak out in favour of decriminalisation and I salute Drop Leaf as a proud participant in the movement and struggle to make this natural super plant available for all who need it and it’s healing properties,” the 39-year-old, Britain-born reggae singer was quoted as saying.
Drop Leaf and DNA Genetics, seed company at the forefront of the global cannabis industry, are currently conducting research and development to produce the signature strain. Once developed, it will be made available to dispensaries, caregivers, and worldwide where it is legal.
In keeping with American states Colorado, Washington DC and Oregon, Jamaica recently announced proposed relaxations to its laws on marijuana. People caught in possession of ganja weighing two ounces or less will not be arrested, but will be ticketed and required to pay a fine.
Following in his father’s footsteps, Marley is known for his albums Lion In The Morning, Time and Space and Awake. The latter earned a Grammy nomination.
