After reading that article a second time, I can not help but wonder if most of the edibles and vape pens sold in stores are not chemically converted THC from hemp.
If you think about it, the profit margin is far greater than cannabis THC.
These folks are all about the profit and who would know if it never got tested?
A quote for the article… Eighty percent of what Delta was producing was the Conte brand that included the hemp-derived THC,
Think about that next time you purchase an edible or vape.
I’m shocked - absolutely shocked - that someone with a business based around having the “authentic genetics” everyone is looking for would write an article simultaneously tearing down the competition while explaining why he is miraculously the only one in the world to have the real thing.
edit: Didn’t even realize his name came out as a link. Since it’s a link anyway, but one with no information about the author, I pointed it to where it should go - his seed company’s web page. Just a bit of an ulterior motive there…
“We must call on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and Department of Justice to issue statements that neither agency will enforce the Controlled Substances Act or the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act”
I guess people don’t want seeds. For the homegrow, nothing is more fun and interesting than seed making. Then you figure out its not hard to make your own awesome crosses. Hit a few lower branches with some pollen, seeded nugs at the bottom of every jar if you get that far.
I am a little confused by one thing in that article… the Colorado retailer who said he didn’t know the THC extract used in the pre-rolls he was buying was derived from hemp… didn’t he know he was buying from an out of state producer, and therefore in violation of federal law and the Cole Memo? One would think you’d either be a little gunshy about acknowledging you’d knowingly done that, or that maybe you’d clue in to the fact that it probably wasn’t extract made from drug cultivar plants?
When they legalized here, along with conveniently leaving homegrowing a felony until they’ve collected enough bribes, they also neglected to write up any legal methods for determining impairment. Now, instead of it being flat-out illegal and “a smell of marijuana” being the preferred excuse for cops molesting kids they don’t like the look of, it’s legal and cops can instead call a “drug recognition expert” to perform a 12-step test to determine if someone’s impaired. Luckily, there are no standards for said tests, so now instead of just saying they smell weed they have to call someone else to say they think they recognize the signs of drug use in their behavior. Seems like it is in no way an improvement, except for the politicians being bribed and the ones bribing them.
