The cannabis industry’s fragmented foundation is creating a host of problems tied to the lack of federal legalization.

On April 1, 2024, Germany launched Pillar 1 of its adult-use legalization framework, building on its established medical cannabis program that has been in place since 2017.

Red Light Holland (CSE: TRIP) has established its foundation in the Netherlands, where psilocybin truffles, the underground sclerotia of psilocybin mushrooms, are legally permitted for cultivation and sale.

Switching from smoking to dry-herb vaping offers a safer way to consume while also preserving the delicate terpene and cannabinoid profiles that contribute to the entourage effect. Unlike combustion, which produces tar, carbon monoxide, and other toxic byproducts, vaporization heats cannabis at controlled temperatures to release active compounds with far fewer harmful emissions. While vaping […]

Previously known as the SAFE Banking Act, the “R” was included to account for Sen. Jack Reed’s (D-RI) concerns with Section 10. The […]

Even a cursory review of cannabis reveals that the market has been notoriously wasteful, polluting the environment with chemical fertilizers, misused pesticides, contaminated plants, and—perhaps most problematically—thoughtlessly excessive packaging. The industry is in dire need of sustainable practices, and the easiest way to start an impactful new trend is from the outside in: a.k.a., adjusting […]

Before a […]
