Positronics was the first growshop in the Netherlands, it was founded in 1986 by Wernard Bruining, who also founde the first coffeeshop in Amsterdam, the Mellow Yellow. Posi was more than a growshop, it had a clone area, openly, and they had plants flowering openly… Thos e were the days!
Positronics closed in 1996, because of a big mess in the administration they owed the Taxman so many guilders they were declared bankrupt. When we opened the Global Hempmuseum a few years later, Wernard made his collection of art and other valuables, like Cannabis Cups, available to display in our history section.
Here are a few items from this collection, which is now on display in the Gobal Hemp Club in Alora, Spain.
I do not know the artist, this was made by one of Posi’s regulars, but it is a very nice piece of cannabis art. I will show some details later, the smoke coming from Dali’s joint has little mushrooms in it…
Another beauty of an unknown smoker, I’ll see if Wernard knows who were the people who made the paintings.
Cannabis seems to give people plenty of inspiration, thc dripping art…
This cabinet holds loads of Positroncs history, some cannabis cups, old seed bags and other unique items. Our foer apartments have also been decorated with items from the Global Hempmuseum, they all have their own theme. We are surrounde by history, you can still smell the aroma of joints gone by…
