why is marijuana called pot?
And now, when people talk about âpot,â they mean the dried leaves of marijuana or any other substance or drug that contains marijuana. Marijuana is sourced from the leaves and flowers of the hemp plant. The flowers and leaves are then dried for a variety of uses. Most marijuana is abused for its addictive and/or psychogenic effects. Many people have even become addicted because of the supposed âfeel-goodâ effects of this particular substance.
