Since the first legalization of medicinal marijuana, there’s always been one chief concern from a health viewpoint. While scientific research may be incredibly nascent in the field of medicinal and recreational cannabis I think it is obvious that combusting any component and inhaling it is not the best choice for your lungs and vicariously your […]
If you’ve ever taken the time to peruse the list of ailments deemed by the state as worthy of medicinal cannabis (for starters, odd hobby) you may have noticed there’s a lot of things missing that don’t seem like they should be missing. While medicinal cannabis is approved to treat complications regarding things like cancer […]
Allow me to recount to you the vaguely uncreative tale of the little cannabinoid that could. There were a lot of cannabinoids in the crop and they all did great things. Some of them helped with depression, some of them helped fight cancer, some of them helped with epilepsy, and some of them helped fight […]
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 […]
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 […]
How did they rate? It was five days after 4/20 in 1898 (not that 420 was a thing back in 1898) and the USS Maine was making safe harbor in Havana Cuba when an explosion rocked the ship. Quick to lay blame on the Spanish and entwine ourselves into its imperialistic war against Cuba, The […]
Every dispensary you visit has a voice. This was, in many ways, the motivation that started Dope Directory even before I was around. The goal was to capture that voice and discover what makes each dispensary unique. As another year passes dispensaries come and go, but the best ones, the ones that have a message […]
There’s a good chance that you or someone in your life has been affected by cancer. When my mother was diagnosed over 9 years ago, I remember how helpless I felt. I remember seeing the side effects of radiation and chemotherapy slowly wearing away at her. I also saw the hope that cannabis brought to […]
Everybody likes Barbecue. I know that may be a sort of blanket statement that doesn’t cover everyone’s opinions properly, but I still would love to stand by it. I have several friends who are vegetarian and while, of course, they don’t partake in any of the sumptuous grilling meats that I do so adore, that […]
Now that it’s 420 season again, I can’t help but reminisce about past adventures and the, dare I say, marijuana tribulations I’ve encountered over the years. Nothing quite compares to the 420 that we almost didn’t have any cannabis at. I’ll be honest the parlance of my profession has limited my ability to peg down […]
How did they rate? How many times have you heard this? “I loved that visit to the gas station. They had this amazing soda, delicious edibles, beautiful display shelves, a really chill environment, and some super cute checkout girls!” Probably never, would be my wager. Now if we’re talking about dispensaries and you swap out […]
I’d like to take a moment to tip my hat to the men and women who have served our country in the armed forces. It takes a commitment that is beyond my reckoning and a bravery that only very few possess. From the trials and tribulations that may arise from service, there is a handy […]
The sun was out making a half-hearted attempt at melting the snow and Adam (another editor here at Dope Directory) and I had a date on the calendar to swing by The Green Solution® Studios. Having already met once with Wig’nz, Aldo, and JJ (the Uli Production crew minus Larry) I knew we were in […]
Call it a revolution, or just call it an awakening, more and more Americans are starting to take note of what they eat. Maybe it’s partially thanks to the rise of social media starting a wave of awareness, or maybe eating organic is simply a fad, but now that the point has been brought up […]
Chances are, the majority of people who are reading this right now, have either experienced or known someone who has experienced the horrors of breast cancer, or some other form of malignant cancer. October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and is a perfect time to start the discussion on the benefits of cannabis for cancer […]
