The Civilized feature also makes mention of the fact that mixing pot and golf isn’t a novel idea, citing a survey conducted by BC Golf revealing that more than half of Ontario’s young golfers intended to light up the next time they play golf. Weiske says that these people are his target audience, and hopes to see them as soon as Rolling Greens opens.

The greenhouse, which is located in Sydney, will be growing cannabis supplied by the New South Wales state government. The plants will be used to treat patients suffering from severe health problems such as epilepsy and cancer. Although the greenhouse is currently in its research phase, the cannabis plants can be bought as soon as they figure out how to grow them consistently.

Depending on whether you live in a legal state or a prohibition state, dynamics can change drastically. In legal states, odds are that you won’t have to bring your own weed with you. You’d most likely be able to get some reefer on site without a problem. While you might still be able to get weed at a 420 event in a prohibition state, the opposite is just as likely. In these cases, bringing your own weed with you will ensure that you get to light up with everyone once the countdown reaches zero.

One of the primary reasons why the military maintains such a hardline stance on the issue is due to the illegality of the substance on a federal level. In other words, the US Military cannot permit the usage of cannabis unless the Federal Government removes cannabis from the Controlled Substance Act.

My advice for growers out there who get interviewed for a growing job or to join a grow team is not to bash the guy before you or burn down the solution to the problem you are looking at in the grow.  You can say things like “I am not sure this is the correct idea here”, or “This set up might make sense outdoors but for in here I would do X, Y, and Z”.  This niche is so new, and having been illegal for 80 years, many new faces are coming out to learn about growing for the first time in a legal setting.

An effective way of dealing with this issue would be to implement laws, such as those in certain communities which reserve some cannabis licenses for women, as well as minority-owned businesses. Another way to help would be for organizations to conduct skills training, such as helping women (and other minorities) learn how to write business plans particularly if they want to make the shift from the black market to the legal cannabis market. Mentorship would also be good.

4/20 week is upon us, perhaps the most important stoner holiday of the entire year. This day plays an important role in cannabis culture, but there’s so much more you can do to celebrate it than just doing the same old thing: getting high with your friends while watching stoner flicks or attending a music festival.

Patents could affect our abilities to unlock the great medical and therapeutic prospects of cannabis. Whether or not this will actually happen remains to be seen, but one thing is for sure, Biotech Institute LLC. appears to be following the footsteps of big agriculture companies like Monsanto and Pioneer, and this writer is of the humble opinion that Mother Nature is the only one who can own the patent for a plant.

Current estimates suggest that the US legal cannabis market could be worth over $146 billion in 2025, but the report says that the European CBD market could be worth as much as a cool $416 million at the end of the year, which can spike to $1.7 billion by 2023. Additionally, the EU cannabis market is expected to see rapid growth, from its $318 million value last year to $8 billion by 2023.
