Permits For California Cannabis Growers In Limbo
California has a cannabis problem, in that the state is behind—waaaaay behind—in getting cannabis growers the licenses they need to grow legally. As Marijuana Business Daily explains, the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) issues these grower permits. As of April 16, the CDFA had issued 62 annual permits, and 564
No Citizenship For Immigrants Working In Cannabis
Last year, I wrote a piece that looked at the perils of working in the cannabis industry, or using cannabis, for undocumented individuals, and even had in translated into several languages in the hope that it would reach the largest intended audience. Last week, the US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)
Biggie Smalls Estate Entering The Cannabis Industry
I've written (okay, fine, bitched) about the number of celebrities entering the cannabis space, and while it may be well intentioned, it doesn't always sit well with consumers who want their weed brands to have a legitimate connection to the industry.

A new study has made some revealing discoveries about the cannabis grown at the University of Mississippi. That's the infamous and sole source of cannabis being used in federally funded cannabis research. I've written before about the numerous reports of poor quality flower, possible mold, and absurdly low THC levels. That Ole
Women’s Orgasms, Sexual Satisfaction Improved With Cannabis
A new study published the Journal for Sexual Medicine (a periodical I only read for the articles, I swear) reports that women who use cannabis have more intense orgasms, an increase in desire, and overall are more satisfied with their sexual experiences. In other words, science has now proven that getting
