This is how big time corporate Cannabiz is going to go for the next couple of decades. So long as the state “legalizing” it allows reasonable homegrows, it’ll be okay, but the big Cannabiz corporations are trashing the industry.

Re-scheduling is but a single step, one of many more. We didn’t get into our current predicament overnight; we won’t get out of it overnight. Until very, very recently, the idea of rescheduling or even tolerating cannabis was completely out of the question.

Has anyone notice that almost every article involves some kind of corruption?

Adam Levin was accused by the SEC of securities fraud involving a scheme to conceal paid promotions of a securities offering from at least April 2020 through August 2021. Levin was also accused of selling the Reg A+ offering after the SEC told him to halt it, according to the enforcement action. High Times settled with the SEC without admitting or denying guilt and agreed to pay a fine of $558,071.

This article is what I have been saying for a while. It’s designed to fail. Especially at the small farm social equity levels. The big companies are more able to ride out the problems in the start.

This article just scratches the surface really.
The social equity and justice preformed well when allowed so far. So that argument is bs. The approval by the office of cannabis management has always been the bottleneck

For what it’s worth, I have a fair amount of chronic pain due to inflammation. CBD absolutely helps me with deal with that pain. Just doesn’t help as much with other types of pain for me. @JustANobody @GrowTheAtlas @nube

I’m glad it’s helpful for you, in the end that’s what matters right?

Certainly, as corruption is seemingly baked into the legal cake.

The “legal” cannabis industry is being hamstrung by assorted politicos and their bureaucratic cronies in order to derive payments from the dreaded black marketeers that they are helping to generate revenue with the nasty “illegal” cannabis marketplace. Hurdles erected simply to assist the illicit operations, most notably by the prevention of home growing, as exemplified by NJ stating that it is waiting for the rec. market to mature.

I’ve said it before, but I’ll repeat it. I was expecting corruption when ny legalized, but not to the extent I’ve witnessed

“High Times raised more than $35 million in a lightly regulated Reg A+ public offering in 2020 and promptly went on a buying spree in hopes to build a vertically-integrated cannabis production, processing and retail operation stretching from California to Arizona, Nevada, Illinois and Florida, at the height of the “Green Rush” heyday when cannabis asset prices were at their peak.”

I can see the thought process that went on in their greedy little heads.

Washington state, by contrast, maintained law enforcement pressure on illegal marijuana after voters legalized pot in 2012, which gave the new licensed industry time to establish itself.

Washington does not allow home growing.
Is it a coincidence this is the new model?
No home growing until the legal weed gets established.
Now that legal weed is established and it should be after 12 years…will they now allow home growing?

I think not!
The war on home growing is real folks and it will soon come to a town near you. :astonished:

What does a law officer say about legalization and cannabis?
“It made it worse. One hundred percent, it made it worse,” he says.

Missouri Home Grow is a Constitutional Right. It will not be as easy to take it away from us.

This is a very nice move. :smile:
I have been saying for years if states are gonna legalize they need a constitutional ammendment to lock in homegrowing.

But most states do not and that may be a problem going forward.

In the study, participants inhaled two different doses of vaporized THC, either alone or mixed with limonene, a lemony-smelling terpene also found in citrus fruits. While 30 milligrams, the highest dose of THC, caused people to feel anxious and paranoid when inhaled alone, adding the highest dose of limonene significantly reduced these feelings.

Wow, did these fools use non cannabis terps for the study?
Where did the terps originally come from?
Is it even safe to inhale non cannabis terps?

It would seem they did not even use weed.
Where did the THC originally come from?
