The medicinal and recreational use of cannabis is inexorably linked. What originally spawned the ability for states to legalize recreational cannabis was accepted medical use around our country. This monumental paradigm shift on how we conceptualize the use of cannabis-based products has revolutionized the way that Americans heal in the 21st century. As the crisis […]
In the early part of 2014 was the first time that I had the fortune of sampling a concentrate from Green Dot Labs. I purchased a gram of shatter which, at the time, was priced on the higher end. I purchased it alongside my first small dab rig and torch as a sort of head-first […]
Behold the power of live resin. Live resin is more than just a marijuana concentrate. It’s the encapsulation of everything that makes a strain great. It is everything about a strain percolated down into a perfect conglomeration of every terpene, protein, and cannabinoid that makes that strain so great. A good live resin should not […]
When the first few cannabis competitions started out there wasn’t a whole lot to judge from other than flower. Things have certainly changed a lot in the last five years. Now, there are multiple judging categories at any marijuana competition or cannabis tournament, encompassing everything from edibles to concentrates. I’m not even going to take a […]
Caviar and moon rocks are an inescapable trend that is storming the cannabis industry. I would be genuinely surprised at this point if you hadn’t heard of either. Not only are these little concentrate-loaded nuggets filling up dispensary shelves but as demand increases Marijuana Infused Products (MIP) kitchens are starting to fill up their orders […]
If you were to ask me right now what my favorite kind of cannabis product is I won’t have a very simple answer for you. I like things that are 100% natural and delicious. While, of course, this doesn’t preclude me from dabbling with the occasional butane-extracted concentrate, my favorite forms of cannabis are au […]
If you’re not already versed in the possibilities of CBD allow me to expand a little on just how amazing I find this cannabinoid. CBD has been found to possess anti-carcinogenic properties, anti-inflammatory properties, pain relieving attributes send a whole mess of genuinely good vibes. It’s important to note that CBD is a nonpsychoactive component, […]
Good things are happening at Walking Raven Dispensary at 2001 S Broadway, Denver, CO. While the South Broadway strip has no shortage of options for cannabis shoppers, I recommend you put Walking Raven on the hitlist. It’s a smaller shop, so you might not think that they compete with the big guys for quality and […]
It’s come as no surprise to myself that concentrates are taking over the cannabis world. Ever since the first time I tried cannabis concentrates while I was helping a friend move I knew in an instant the world of getting stoned was never going to be the same. While the ability to get uproariously high […]
I hate it when I’ve had one of those days. You know what it feels like to have “one of those days”. It seems like nothing can go right and everything that can go wrong does go wrong. I recently fell victim to this phenomenon only a few days ago. I woke up on what […]
A piercing scream breaks the city skyline as a massive gorilla scales its way up a building distressed damsel in hand. As planes circle the beast pecking away at its thick hide in vain, you nonchalantly gaze up, knowing exactly what to do. You, after all, have Might Kong’s weakness in hand, a dab pick […]
The more the marijuana industry grows, the more obvious it’s becoming that concentrates and extracts are the new hot item on the shelf. If you’re new to the world of concentrates, then I’ll simply say, you’ve got some catching up to do and I don’t mind helping. I’ll start with the basics and eventually work […]
That’s extreme! Extreme is a label thrown around a lot in pretty much every type of industry you can think of. If you use ‘extreme’ before a household cleaner, you can probably buy it at the ‘as seen on tv’ section of the store. If you use ‘extreme’ to refer to a fast food product it’s […]
Super Lemon Haze is a strain that I wasn’t exposed to until I got actively involved in the marijuana industry. At least, not knowingly. There was that long period of time in my life when I didn’t know what I was smoking because neither did the guy I was buying it from, but I […]
When I first moved to Colorado, to say I was a cannabis aficionado would have been a bit of an understatement. I was fascinated and entranced by the world I was coming into. After years of clandestine smoking, picking up in parking lots, and Sunday nights of resin bowls, it was like coming home. Back […]
