Cynara scolymus L., Globe Artichoke, is a perennial thermophilic vegetable belonging to Asteraceae or Compositae family. Its stem grows to a height of two meters and at its end flower buds are created, which have a variety of colours after flowering. For consumers' purposes they are harvested unopened, the other parts of the plant are also used. Its extensive healing effects have been helping human bodies since the ancient times. The origin of an artichoke can be found in the Mediterranean, from where it has gradually spread throughout the world. In the Czech Republic, artichokes aren't grown mainly due to unfavourable climate. Their cultivation requires a lot of care, they like deep, fertile, humus-rich soils. That's why the Europe's biggest growers are Italy, Spain, France and Greece. Currently there are registered many different varieties of artichoke, which differ in size and shape of the flower buds, spinose of bracts or flower colour. Based on the findings of the experiment can be stated, that under the conditions of the Czech Republic, the most appropriate location was south Moravia. Suitable varieties could be ´Green Globe´ and ´Spinoso Sardo´. For verification would be good to continue in the experiment.

Opinions of teachers and pupils in the second level of basic schools in Týn nad Vltavou about legalization of marihuana
HAVLÍKOVÁ, Jana
The bachelor thesis is called Opinions of teachers and pupils in the second level of basic schools in Týn nad Vltavou about legalization of marihuana. In the theoretical part the thesis contains the basic information about the history of marihuana, its effects, use and related risks. My bachelor thesis also describes the areas which take advantage of medical effects of the drug, as one of the main arguments of defenders of its legalization is the fact that marihuana can have positive effects on human health. For better understanding of the issue, the theoretical part also includes an explanation of the position of hemp-based drugs in international treaties, European legal code and in the Czech legislation. In the practical part I have used a questionnaire survey in basic schools in Týn nad Vltavou to find out opinions of pupils and teachers about potential legalization of marihuana. Apart from the opinion about the legalization as such, the questionnaire also contained questions whether the respondents consider the drug dangerous for human health and for the society and which specific complications associated with its use are known to them. The conclusion of my thesis is that pupils are slightly more benevolent to the legalization of marihuana. Eighty percent of the surveyed teachers were strictly against the legalization. One on my conclusions is the fact that the surveyed pupils support legalization of marihuana to a great extent but only a small percentage of them are interested in detail in that issue. Therefore I believe that it would be appropriate to increase the general level of information about the drug, not only among the pupils but also among their teachers.
