Go Nevada, go! And show us what can be done!

Nevadaā€™s newly legalized recreational marijuana program generated an astonishing $3 million in sales revenue and an estimated $1 million in tax revenue in just four days, the Reno Gazette-Journal reported.

At this rate, Nevada ā€” which kicked off recreational sales on July 1 ā€” could see $30 million in sales by the end of 2017, Fortune explained. However, all that money may go up in smoke if regulators canā€™t figure out how to distribute the product.

Iā€™m not sure but there are probably strict rules on cannabis ads same way as they are applied to other drugs, like tobacco and alcohol. Iā€™m not sure that we can get marijuana buds on billboardsā€¦ or am I wrong?

That is a good question.
I do not live in a legal state, so I donā€™t know.
Anyway, I became curious, and I found this.

Leafly has a guide to advertising rules in the USā€™s legal states.

State-by-State Guide to Cannabis Advertising Regulations

For Coloradoā€¦ TV ads are OK, ifā€¦

B. Television Advertising. A Retail Marijuana Establishment shall not utilize television Advertising unless the Retail Marijuana Establishment has reliable evidence that no more than 30 percent of the audience for the program on which the Advertising is to air is reasonably expected to be under the age of 21.

Hi @901grow, UR welcome!
Unfortunately, FL has truly bollocksed up the implementation of MMJ.
What a mess they have made.

I am not medical, and am in violation of the bogus new laws and regulations.
For shame.

That was horrible. Drilling his hip and burning him with a butane torch? Holy hell that is messed up!

I know, it seems like a plot from some cheesy B horror filmšŸ˜±
But it is all too real.
At least they caught the depraved scumbags!

Hahaha
This is quite amusing.
The above article is an interesting observation of current social media and the users thereof.

Bait and switch.
Anyone that takes the time to read it will quickly see that it is not really about cannabis at all.
Sorry for misleading you!
I wanted to share because I found it to be very interesting.

This seems to be foolish and short sighted.
It is an egregious waste of Alabamaā€™s resources!

They should have arranged to sell the crop to Nevada which has a near calamitous shortage of ganja.
Win/win baby!:sunglasses:

Sounds like a bunch of rednecks out having fun burning shit down, flying around in helicopters, and running through hills and hollows on ATVā€™s. All being paid for by federal tax dollars. For what?

Hahahaā€¦an expensive way for the rednecks to have a lot of fun. On the taxpayers dime!
Wasteful!

It is most unfortunate that the federal government has become, apparently (SessionsAG) the most significant, final hurdle in the quest for legalityšŸ˜”

This is a really interesting and excellent article about edibles.

Maple sugar candies sound insanely yummy!

For some, ingesting marijuana is a better way to reap the benefits of cannabis, and various providers are eager to meet that demand
