LETTER FROM THETEXT EDITOR HERE TEXT HERE Greetings my friends, Spring is here and so are the May Flowers! To celebrate, we hit the Beach in Venice with Doreen Sullivan, the creator of My Bud Vase™. We spent an afternoon shooting photos of these beautiful bongs and are sure you’ll enjoy the pictures. Later that same day while still in Venice, I ate 175mg of THC infused edibles and did 2 hours floating naked in a sensory deprivation tank at Float Lab. You can read all about in this very issue as well as recaps and reviews of the 420 weekend events we attended, including seeing “Half Baked” at the Wiltern. We also payed a very special visit to Mina and Kristina of Baron’s Confections and toured their farm in Santa Clarita while they told us their very special story of how cannabis came to play such an important role in their lives.

In other news: The Proposed Medical Cannabis Licensing Regulations for California have been issued and they don’t look good. They’re very strict when it comes to strength, size, caffeine, frozen foods, dairy, delivery, transportation, taxes, packaging and just about everything else. We’d really like to fight this. Please let the policy makers know what you think and help us keep control of the wonderful world we’ve all been building together. Dates, times and places

for public comments on the new Cannabis Draft regulations are listed at the bottom of our Event Guide on page 64.

Q&A:TOPICALS

TALKING TOPICALS with Gar Gar Souders, cannatopics.com

Hi Gar, I broke my leg and will start physical therapy soon. I have used topicals before and love the quick pain relief. I think it might be good during therapy. Do you have any thoughts on this? Rick Denver, CO Hi Rick, Infused topicals such as oils, salves and lotion can be a great benefit in both healing and pain relief. Tell your therapist and pick a high quality product that works well for you. Dear Gar, As I have gotten older, the skin on my face is not as well toned as it once was. Do you know of any infused products that might help? Lyndsey Yuma, AZ Hi Lyndsey, We are starting to see some high quality beauty products available for problems such as yours. Most of these products are infused with a small dose (10-15mg) of THC, CBD, or both, in a particular base. Examples of this would be nourishing oils, serums and other facial products. These are all for external use, so keep away from eyes and mucous membranes. Dear Gar, I follow your column every month, hoping to see someone with my problem. My state is 100% against any kind of marijuana, medical or otherwise. I get muscle spasms, and wish that I could be in a state that I could get it, but I can't afford to move. I tried a lotion when I visited my brother in California last month. It fixed me right up. Can I get anything like that in a non-marijuana state? Thanks for your help. Rob Hi Rob, There are a few well known topical companies that are introducing hemp CBD versions of their infused topicals, often the very same products, with THC removed and replaced with CBD only. Hemp products are legal in all 50 states. The CBD must come from hemp and should plainly state that on the label. I have heard many success stories regarding these products as well. Hi Gar, I do data entry for a living and have carpal tunnel problems. My friend suggested that I try topical marijuana, so I got my recommendation. Much to my surprise, the doctor that wrote it told me the same thing, that I needed an infused topical. Can you suggest what type of product I should use? Debra Santa Clara, CA Hi Debra, You should find relief pretty quickly with a good topical lotion. Topicals can be both healing and pain relieving, and can be used as needed. There are lotions available that will not leave a greasy feeling, stop your pain, and last for hours. They are great for work and easy to use. Gar Souders has over a decade of research into the effects & formulations of cannabis infused topicals. He is the founder of CannaTopics and is a member of several Pro Cannabis organizations.

Doreen Sullivanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s My Bud Vaseâ&#x201E;˘ Creations are Helping make Cannabis Accessible and Acceptable to a Whole New audience of Sophisticated Smokers.

C O V E R TEXT S T OHERE RY

Doreen Sullivan was born in Los Angeles, California but she now lives in Charleston South Carolina where she also runs her business, My Bud Vase™. Doreen says “My Bud Vase adapts a variety of vintage and antique pieces into fine smoking implements and provides distinctive, elegant and discreet water pipes for the more sophisticated smoker.” She’s a sophisticated smoker herself and began her own journey with cannabis when she was just fourteen years old and has always loved antiques and held a deep appreciation for beauty. The mission of My Bud Vase™ is to create pieces that are beautiful and that belong in the home. Doreen’s creations can be openly displayed and shown off but are also very discreet looking for those who would rather keep a low profile. Her target audience was originally predominantly female, but over time it has become evident that men also really seem to especially appreciate the finely tuned craftsmanship that goes into creating these types of functional devices and they truly are

cherished by all ages. Younger female customers in their early to mid twenties usually love the smaller pieces she makes, while those in their thirties and forties tend to go more for highend, large items and really like the show stopping, gorgeous centerpieces. Baby-boomers w h o are usin g c an n abis specifically for medicating a particular illness, tend to like a piece that sits by nightstand and isn’t too elaborate. Of course she doesn’t stereotype, and these are only a few observations she’s picked up along the way. She is always continually surprised and enlightened in new ways by her customers and the diverse demographics represented. Doreen believes the future of cannabis is going to be very

collaborative, as new operators continue to enter in from other industries and the multiple businesses who bring a wealth of new expertise to add fuel to the ever growing world of medical and recreational cannabis. She is also proud and pleased to see the industry is so female driven and co-creative and has no doubt things will keep evolving on this path. One of the most special experiences to happen to Doreen lately was at the 2017 High Times Cannabis Cup in San Bernardino. Two women in their mid seventies approached Doreen’s booth toward the end of the day and told her they’d been wandering the event all day long and felt overwhelmed and intimidated the entire time. They were exhausted and ready to leave when they saw the My Bud Vase™ set up and for the first time that day they didn’t

feel scared. They were practically in tears when they asked to use the bud vase and felt comfortable doing so because it was so unthreatening. The women asked to be taught, and they were able to learn how to smoke for the very first time in their lives. They were introduced to cannabis in a friendly and familiar way that was a blessing that finally worked for them and instantly seemed to be less stigmatizing. Now they not only know how to smoke, but have a beautiful piece to do it with. The My Bud Vase™ philosophy makes sense. Psychedelic head shop style paraphernalia has for a long time been considered standard gear when it came to cannabis. Many of the changes in choice we’ve seen integrated into consuming are often inspired by technological advances or some other factors. Using concentrates, vaporizers, cartridges, dab rigs, silicone, or other modernized methods might

but it’s very rewarding. Once the stem and clear glass bowl has been added and a new piece is constructed, cleaned and the finishing touches have been put on - then it’s ready to be named. Choosing the name to title a piece can come about in a variety of ways. Doreen likes using her imagination and is inspired by many things: women, iconic heroes, the geographic locations and places of origin where she finds the pieces, legends, myths, and fables or something else that gives a deep meaning to an object. Other times it’s a more playful process and the name simply comes from the color, shape or some other visual fun clue. Example names of My Bud Vase™ bongs include: Belle, Bev, Blue Dream, Hercules, Tiger’s Eye and Unicorn. Some pieces look like they belong at a high tea while others EdiblesList.com I EdiblesMagazine.com

Edibles Magazine Issue 35

The materials used to construct the vase bongs are most often antique pieces and sourcing them requires some archeology style skills in order to find the right items shoe can recycle and repurpose. The pieces are made of ceramic, glass, or cut crystal and are customized and transformed into beautiful new smoking devices - “it’s a labor of love, form, functionality and flowers.” The process isn’t so easy

The 4/20 Holiday of 2017 was the one year anniversary of My Bud Vase™ being released to the public. After one year things are going incredibly well and it looks like the future is

only going to get brighter for this innovative and imaginative young company. Beautiful bongs that are functioning glass or ceramic antique vases are a perfect method of introduction for those individuals who feel reluctant to use cannabis but can certainly be used, appreciated and adored by anyone who smokes cannabis. We had an amazing time shooting the photos with Doreen at Venice Beach using her pieces and fresh cut stems and buds of Tangie Sativa flowers provided by 3C Farms and Cannabal City Collective. She surprised the staff of Edibles List at by generously gifting the lovely light blue, Greek style “Hercules” bong to us at the end of the day when we had finished filming. Now that we’ve got a My Bud Vase™ bong of our own, I can tell you with total certainty that it elevates the experience and classes up the cannabis. Get one and see for yourself, you’ll be ever so glad you did. Check them out at: www.mybudvase.com

look like they might contain a wish granting Genie inside. Orders can be customized for the consumer too and the vases are carried in different kinds of retail locations like smoke shops, dispensaries, collectives and holistic massage centers as well as in online stores. They recently were at The Cannabis Wedding Expo in San Francisco where My Bud Vase™ was received very well. The aesthetic is always elegant and artistic so it’s easy to see how these gorgeous products could be incorporated into cannabis weddings.

EVENT RECAP

CannaCon, Santa Rosa 420 Keiko Beatie

The Sonoma County Fairgrounds were blazing with business this past 420 as CannaCon came to town. The location was the setting for a B2B/Consumer event filled with a vast variety of the top cultivators, vendors, manufacturing equipment, soil nutrients, educators, speakers and icons within the cannabis industry. Bob Smart, CEO and Founder of CannaCon has had much success with the event in Seattle, Washington since 2013 and decided to bring his event to Northern California for the 420 Weekend. The Sonoma County Fairgrounds is the site for the very popular Emerald Cup that takes place in the Fall each year, but with the industry growing and with many cultivators preparing to work the ground with their seeds and clones it was the perfect time to have an event such as this to highlight the cultivation process. With the large number of buildings on site, many were specific to the extraction equipment showcases, cultivation equipment, soil and nutrient exhibits and a culinary cooking demonstration room. Edibles List Magazine was on hand and participated with educational panels highlighting the growing market of edibles and topicals. With such subjects as Distribution, The State of Edibles in California, Oregon, Washington and Colorado, Infused Dining Chefs, and the Trending Edible Market we were able to assist interested attendees who were seeking to get into the industry. Being that is was April 20th, there was a celebratory countdown in a 215 approved area where attendees and vendors embraced the moment together. Of course being that it was in the area of the country that is known to have the best grown cannabis in the entire USA the delectable scents of OG were wafting in an enormous cloud of 420 frivolity. I feel it was realized by all present that the future of true recreational was just around the corner and we may not require lines or boundaries in 2019. The next CannaCon is set for July 13th to 15th at the Hynes Convention Center in Boston, MA. This will be the first cannabis conference to take place in Massachusetts. At this time industry figures and statistics are showing that the sales of equipment, products and build outs for the cannabis industry are some of the most active after California. The difference is that the population of Massachusetts is only 7 million residents and California is 38 million. Congratulations to CannaCon and to the state of Massachusetts as we look forward to supporting education for events like CannaCon in the future. Issue No. 35 I Page 24

Baron's Confections:

How Cannabis Changed Kristina & Her Family's Lives Forever Patrick Ian Moore

Mina felt guilty for not trying it sooner, but she was now on a mission. She not only believed in the healing power of the plant but was also now driven to make sure the medicine she gave Kristina was the best available. Mina quit her job as an engineer and went to culinary school and studied

baking and pastries while also learning everything there was about cultivating, cannabinoids, extraction, infusion, and more - and Baron’s Confections was created. From seed-to-table they’re making organic, gourmet, elegant and infused edibles that are among the absolutely most beautiful and delicious you’ll find anywhere in the industry. Baron’s was at the Best of Edibles List Awards in February and took home six trophies in a variety of categories. They are clean-green certified and use an all holistic approach to growing and the edibles they make are infused with pure pressed fresh rosin from their own grown flowers. They make a variety of THC and CBD options and also have vegan treats to choose from too. I had the opportunity to sit with Kristina on their beautiful deck on the Baron's Southern California Farm while we medicated together using a special blend of Grand Daddy Purple Indica Cannabis oil her mother makes especially for her. Kristina wanted to make sure everyone knows that she feels great, she’s happy and she loves life! She loves animals, especially dogs and some of her favorite things to do are write poetry and read the works of William Shakespeare. Edibles and vaping are her favorite ways to medicate, and she has yet to try a kind of cannabis she doesn’t enjoy. Kristina said using cannabis helps her relax around other people and to feel more comfortable as well as liberated. I had an incredible time hanging out with this wonderful family and learning all about them and the great things they are doing with medical marijuana. Baron's Confections is truly doing innovative things and transforming expectations when it comes to the healing power of edibles. Check them out online at: baronsconfections.com

Kristina Smith b eca m e ill mysteriously when she was only 6 years old. After she spent six months in a coma, Kristina woke up and was diagnosed with Encephalopathy Etiology Unknown, meaning brain damage with an unknown cause. This meant Kristina now suffered from frequent seizures, ataxia (shaking), as well as a decrease in motor and speech skills. Physicians prescribed a plethora of prescription medications that did little to actually improve how she felt. Her doctor recommended using cannabis as a holistic approach to healing but Kristina’s mother Mina had strong reservations. The portrayal of marijuana in the mainstream media made her nervous about the risk of addiction and potentially harming her child with dangerous drugs. Nearly 15 years after first being suggested, Kristina decided for herself that she wanted to try using cannabis and told her mother. Now convinced that it was an idea at least worth trying, Mina got some cannabis buds from a dispensary and used them to infuse a homemade dish of chicken alfredo, Kristina’s favorite meal. Kristina finished her dinner and went to lay down early that night. 30 minutes later she got up and was walking and talking comfortably for the first time since age six. Mina was awestruck as she heard her daughter say: “Mom, I LOVE Cannabis. It makes me feel normal, it makes me feel free!”

Toasted Jam Co. Darcy Thompson

When I saw the Toasted Jam Co. at the Cannabis Wedding Expo in San Francisco last week, I knew they had something unique and special. I decided to try the Toasted Padron Jam, a green pepper preserve that is savory and smoky. Made in Santa Cruz, vegan and gluten free, the small 2.5 oz jar contains 150 mg THC, with minor amounts of CBD. One serving is a teaspoon and is 10 mg, 15 servings a jar. 10 mg is a good amount for me, no more. One fun fact, they list the actual strain, Sour Diesel Hawaiian Widow, and I’m happy to see that it’s a sativa dominant hybrid that is green farmed, although I don’t really know what that means.

I bit right into the crispy jam top and the herbs and sweetness, the smoky flavor and lamb were delicious. I would highly recommend trying it. Tangy and salty almost like candy on top, the melted jam was easily the best part. Only on the last bite did I taste a tiny hint of marijuana flavor. Twenty minutes later my dinner was done and I felt some euphoria and a gentle body high. In the end I wish I had infused them all! I feel happy, and little excited and am enjoying the experience. Time to get ready to go out!

Edibles Magazine Issue 35

As you open the jar, you instantly smell the smoky earthy peppers, and it was firmer than I expected, unlike their sweet jam variety I also picked up. It

isn’t spicy like I thought, but more a warm heat. Not to sweat. I knew I needed to do something interesting with it so I dared to bake it onto a rack of lamb. I cut it into three pieces, two to three bones each, and only infused one for comparison. Thirtyfive minutes later, baked at 450 degrees with olive oil, garlic, herbs and the jam of course, I took the meat out to rest and basted it a few times. I could still smell the smokiness.

Measure M Passes in Los Angeles

Edibles Magazine Issue 35

On Tuesday March 7th, Measure M, the City Council backed ballot measure aiming to regulate cannabis businesses in Los Angeles passed by an overwhelming majority when over 80% of voters approved the measure. The LA City Council will be granted the authority to create and amend regulations concerning marijuana commercialization when it comes to the taxation of cannabis sales. In November, Californians voted for the approval of Prop 64, which was the legalization of marijuana in the state, but didn't offer any kind of understandable explanation when it came to who could cultivate, extract, infuse, or distribute cannabis, and cannabis related products.

Now, a gross receipts tax of 5% will start being imposed on medical marijuana, and recreational cannabis will have a 10% gross receipts tax. Cultivation, manufacturing, transportation, and research will have a 1% gross receipts tax. The LA City Council can now issue permits and be responsible for cannabis transportation regulation as well. Measure M will also provide the industry a set of local laws and rules that will cover a number of different factors such as: what hours can cannabis businesses operate, and where can they be located? The passage of Measure M effectively repeals the 2013 ballot initiative Proposition D, which outlawed medical cannabis dispensaries while at the same time giving â&#x20AC;&#x153;limited legal immunityâ&#x20AC;? to approximately 135 existing dispensaries, considered to be Pre-ICO, because they were operating before the Interim Control Ordinance of 2007. The competing ballot measure, Measure N, would have mostly given control over to the 135 Pre-ICO dispensaries. It was voted against by 64% of voters. Most of those who had initially backed Measure N eventually began supporting M instead.

Splendid Isolation

an Elevated Experience in a Sensory Deprivation Tank

The Sensory Deprivation Tank was developed in 1954 by medical practitioner and neuropsychiatrist John C. Lilly at the US National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH). Lilly experimented with sensory deprivation, and often would combine floating with psychedelic drugs like LSD and Ketamine in addition to attempting to communicate with both dolphins and extraterrestrials. Sensory Deprivation is the practice of floating weightlessly in an ultra purified, skin temperature solution of dissolved Epsom salt within a light-free and sound resistant isolation floatation system. Isolation tank therapy is used to treat a variety of ailments and disorders, including: muscle tension, chronic pain, hypertension, rheumatoid arthritis and PMS. The first time I ever heard of isolation tanks was when I saw the 1980 movie “Altered States” as a kid, and they were recently featured in “Stranger Things” on Netflix. I personally went floating for two hours in a tank at Float Lab on the Venice Beach boardwalk after eating close to 175mg of top quality THC edibles to see what the effects would be and how the combination might aid in the treatment of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Here’s what happened! First I took my medicine - I ate two 50mg Chocolate Brownie Bites by Anakatrina’s Edibles about 30 min before I started and followed that with close to a third of a 300mg Apple Pie Cookie from Strictly Edibles five minutes before it began. I’d also been vaping on a W Vapes Banana Cookie Pen the entire ride there, so when we arrived I was fully medicated and good to go. After meeting “Crash”, the founder and owner of Float Lab, I was escorted to the introduction and prep room. Once I’d been advised of the process I was shown to my own tank room, took off my clothes, put in my ear plugs and took a shower using the organic body wash provided. Next I climbed into the tank, faced and closed the door and laid back into the darkness. My body stayed totally buoyant and thanks to the salt I really was floating on top of the water in what felt like wet and slippery zero gravity. It took a few moments for my body to stop drifting and settle, but when it did the sensation was kind of like sinking into a memory foam mattress made of spongy liquid. I’m pretty tall, just over six feet and have extra long arms too but once I stopped moving and wasn’t in contact with the sides or edges of the

tank the space started to feel infinite. There was no claustrophobic feeling, quite the opposite actually. And it was dark, really, really dark. A few times came when I seriously didn’t know if my eyes were open or closed and I definitely had some colorful visions of dancing light here and there, sometimes taking shapes and sometimes staying abstract. I continued to zone out in different waves and layers thanks to the combined effects of the floating and the edibles. When I did, it was very much like being in a very nice and serene dream. The earplugs and soundproof chamber made it quiet, extremely quiet. Every now and then the extreme quiet was interrupted by a loud and thunderous noise that I realized, over and over again, was the sound of my own rhythmic breathing. There was also a faint sound of singing that sounded tribal but clearly in an imaginary language that would get slightly louder before fading back out. My mind is rarely still, but the isolation let me experience a stillness and sense of serenity that I haven’t known very much, and not for a long time. It was wonderful and I was also acutely aware my own sense of self and what it truly felt like to be completely alone with just my own thoughts. I did a solid two hours and it literally seemed like less than ten minutes. My perception of time has never been so distorted and that’s one of the most interesting aspects of this journey. Floating in an isolation tank on edibles was a lot like getting high and taking a nice warm bath in total darkness while wearing earplugs - yes, it was relaxing but it was also so much more. It felt like going on a walkabout inside my own primal dreamscape. It felt like returning to the womb. It felt like being set adrift in the void of space, if the void of space was warm and wet and felt intensely safe. I’m highly recommending the experience. Please know your dose and don’t try this with too much THC. You may also want to start with just an hour and increase your time as you continue. More investigative research should be done, and I certainly intend to, so keep reading for more updates. I seriously want my own tank one day - it’s now number one on my wish list!

Fully Baked for Half Baked Patrick Ian Moore

On Thursday April 20th, I saw the movie “Half Baked” at the historic Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles for a Live Nation 420 event, and although many people I’ve told have found it hard to believe - it was my first time ever seeing the film. Yes, I work in the cannabis industry and also have a background in comedy but I’d never seen Half Baked. Yes, I was in college in 1998 and was smoking and selling a lot of pot at the time but I’d never seen Half Baked. Yes, I’m a huge fan of Dave Chappelle and everything he does but I’d never seen Half Baked. I can’t even really say why.. So let’s move on.

Edibles Magazine Issue 35

I received 2 free tickets for the show from Natural Herbal, a very nice Pre-ICO dispensary in downtown LA at a very cool 4/20 Patient Appreciation Day they put on. This absolutely seemed like the perfect opportunity to see a cult classic I’d somehow missed for close to twenty years in a meaningful setting. I gave the other ticket to my friend Alex and we spent 30 minutes vaping Sublime brand Sativa Co2 oil in glass tipped cartridges before the movie started and ate multiple bags of 25 mg Heavenly Sweet Caribou Munch the entire time. Very good medicine and it went great with the film. Now, about the film…

It was really surprising to me how well this particular late nineties “weed” movie holds up in 2017. The characters don’t have a website or the internet and never use cell phones but other than that it’s really pretty straight up and on point realistic. Yeah they fly around the city sometimes when they get extra stoned but that’s not really so far fetched. What’s weirdly stranger was seeing music videos and payphones that worked. It actually is more realistic than most anything you’ll see on television or in most movies featuring marijuana smoking

scenes, with the exception of “9 to 5”, old Cheech and Chong stuff and pretty much anything involving Seth Rogen. There are exceptionally good cameos by the people you hope to see in this genre: Tommy Chong, Willie Nelson, and Snoop Dogg and some you don’t expect: Jon Stewart, Stephen Baldwin and Bob Saget. The actual business, delivery and distribution seemed totally right for 1998 New York City and also a lot like the operation on “High Maintenance” nowadays. The jargon and nomenclature used were even more authentic than what you’ll likely hear on Workaholics, Broad City or Mary + Jane, and the way they depict “the munchies” is perfect. All of the cast’s performances were awesome and seemed genuine and there are infinitely quotable lines. I’m not going to try and get existential or introspective it’s Half Baked! If you haven’t seen it yet, go get high and watch it. If you’ve seen it, get high and re-watch it! If you have the chance to see it in the theater on 4/20 next year then do it and don’t forget to take your medicine. Dave Chappelle is back now with new comedy specials on Netflix and it’s great to go back and see how he got started before the brilliant “Chappelle’s Show.” The time seems right for a Half Baked sequel. Call it “Fully Baked” and now Dave can be in 100% control of everything. He sure has that power in this day and age to do it exactly how he wants to and the world seems just right for that particular kind of movie these days. Please use this idea and just invite me to the premiere and I’ll bring the edibles. After the movie Laura Silverman, who played Jan, took to Twitter and told me her favorite line was “Doctor says I need a backiotomy” by Sir Smoke-A-Lot. I’m inclined to agree with her.

EVENT RECAP

Imperious Business Expo Phoenix, Arizona Keiko Beatie

In April the Southwest State of Arizona hosted one of its first cannabis business to business conferences. The Imperious Expo had a wide array of vendors, speakers, panels and interested attendees at the Phoenix Convention Center a week prior to 4/20. The overall feeling was that this was new and exciting and many attendees were on hand to learn how they could be part of this green industry. Even though the regulations of cannabis use in the state are stringent and heavily regulated the public is moving forward with responsible events such as this. Many of the vendors found themselves answering questions from first time visitors to an event focused on the cannabis market. Most came with the hope that they may find their place in the future of the State’s growing curious cannabis market. The great array of speakers and panels had not been presented with such depth previously in Phoenix ever before. The engaging interest was fruitful for the participants as well as for the seasoned professionals as the education may be the way to pave the path towards growth and acceptance. Ella Alpina of 7 Rays Marketing was one of the speakers on a panel at the Imperious Expo on marketing. She shares that “It went really well and I'd love to do more of that, especially with an engaged audience of participants that were on hand”. She went on to say that the B2B event had many questions come up on branding, packaging and how to create a positive social media platform. Ella is based in Northern California and part of the Women Grow networking group that has over 30 cities across the nation of women and men in the industry. So it seem that the “Four Corner State” has an acutely engaged industry growing with compliance and business “green” savvy for the upcoming future. So why didn’t the supportive initiative pass in the November 2016 election? It still baffles me as of all the states with cannabis bills on the ballot, Arizona was the only state that didn’t pass. No matter what, our plans will be to see you at the next Imperious Expo in 2018. Issue No. 35 I Page 48

April 420 Sales Reach $45 Million Dollars

Keiko Beatie

With more states becoming recreational and medical cannabis supporters, the community celebrated 4/20 as a National Green Holiday! Using the industry’s tech company MJ Freeway’s insight, general estimations are in for a retail market of $45 million dollars for the day of April 20th, within the United States alone. Their estimations and reports were generated from a majority of cannabis retail markets and clearly prove the industry is continuing to produce a rising market of astronomic proportions. Many predictions by specialists and analysts speculated on what the big day would mean to the “Green Market”. The results showed a 20% expansion from 2016’s data for the Four Twenty holiday and a 13% increase of customer traffic raised the need for more product on the shelfs and increased supply for special events and parties.. Inversely the second biggest holiday for consumption is the 4th of July

and New Year’s Eve is the 3rd largest spending day in the cannabis retail market. Consumers purchasing more per order was a pleasant surprise and a spike in purchases of edibles and topicals contributed to the overall rise. This news only solidifies that the path to compliance is paved with green nugs. Nevada’s retail sales are scheduled to begin this year on July 1, 2017 only 3 days before Independence Day and with the reciprocity laws in place, many of the visitors to Sin City will be watching with delight to see what fireworks light up the skies. Overall, cannabis dispensaries in legal marijuana states estimated a 30 to 40 percent spike in sales for April 20th. Some outlets felt that leading up to 420, consumers were prepared and started on 4/19 as “Green Wednesday” and created a pleasantly heightened demand. A dispensary in Colorado opened up its first drive-thru dispensary on 4/20 - talk about a “Happy Meal”!

The Proof Is In The Packaging: Protecting Your Edibles Rachel Zemser

There are countless new laws surrounding edibles and how to package them, especially to ensure they are not accessible to children or that they’re in opaque containers and are labelled properly. These guidelines are all to protect the consumer – but what about protecting the food itself from outside elements? Almost all foods are perishable but the rate at which they perish is related to their exposure to light, air and moisture. Protecting your food products from the harsh elements of the world is crucial to guarantee a longer shelf life and fresh tasting products.

Infused oils are very susceptible to rancidity and ruined flavors and should always be packaged in dark colored bottles to keep out the light and stored at cooler temperatures. Just like regular oil that you buy at the store might go bad fairly quickly, so can your THC infused oils. It should be noted that nut oils such as almond or walnut oil go rancid extremely quickly, whereas coconut oil tends to last longer and be more shelf stable.

All edible products regardless of the type or form should be subjected to a thorough and complete shelf life study before being sold to dispensaries. A quality and safety shelf life study should be conducted in appropriate packaging and done over a time period that reflects the actual shelf life of the product. A shelf life study should include pathogen testing, spoilage bacteria analysis as well as evaluating What about nuts and granola snacks? for rancidity, moisture content and Nuts are high in fat and even oats and water activity. other cereal grains have some fat in them too, which means they can very For more information on how to quickly go rancid if they are exposed conduct a food shelf life study, check to air and high temperatures. Always out: www.cannabisculinologist.com

Edibles Magazine Issue 35

Let’s start with a basic brownie to get an understanding of how it can “go bad”. A brownie is typically high in sugar and moisture (from the milk, eggs and water used to bake it). You want to retain that nice moist texture and make sure it does not dry out in flimsy packaging. A thick foiled package or sealed plastic container can help ensure that the brownie does not dry out and become crumbly. Sometimes a brownie may be lower in sugar, which makes it more susceptible to yeast and mold. You can reduce the chances of it getting moldy by making it in a clean environment and using thick packaging that won’t let in any dust or microscopic bacteria. Of course you should always conduct a shelf life study on your baked goods to see how long they stay fresh and mold free at room or refrigerated temperatures.

package high fat ingredients in tightly sealed containers that allow in minimal light and air. Think of those packages of nuts in the supermarket that make that “ssssssssth” sound when you pull back the foil seal. That’s done to see that no air gets to the nuts before the consumer opens the package. If you package your nuts in flimsy bags or ziplock plastic bags, you will have a shorter shelf life and risk having the product go bad. To extend the shelf life further, store any nut based products in a freezer until distributed to a dispensary.

Q&A WITH TEXT HEREDR. MIKE

Q & A with Dr. Mike:

Why CBD? Dr. Michael Heller, mjwooly.com Q: I’ve partied too hard. I feel like poo and I have to go to work, what should I do? A: Try some CBD. Q: What is CBD? A: Cannabidiol (CBD) is found in the cannabis plant. It engages numerous different pathways in the body. Unlike THC it is not psychoactive...It won’t get you high. Q: What can I use CBD for? A: Although most of CBDs uses have not been evaluated by the FDA, people are using it for: pain, anxiety, depression, epilepsy/seizures, nausea, arthritis, inflammation, headache/migraine, stress...and the list goes on. If you are feeling crappy take some CBD it probably will help. Q: Is CBD good for working out? A: If you are sore CBD will definitely help. It will help you push through the pain of your workout and with the pain of your recovery. FYI, don’t work out injured and don’t get hurt pushing yourself too hard.

Edibles Magazine Issue 35

Q: Is CBD good for sex? A: Well if you are nervous it may calm you down. Unlike THC that alters your senses and your sexual experience CBD will probably be fairly unnoticeable during sex.

Q: How much CBD do I take? A: That really depends on what you are using it for and your body type. If you are using CBD generally, 2-20 mg can be an effective dosage. Start low, listen to your body and go from there. If you are using it for a medical condition always consult a physician. Q: Can I snort CBD? A: Ummm why? Technically speaking you could EdiblesList.com I EdiblesMagazine.com

snort 100% pure CBD but DON’T DO IT, you will mess up your sinuses. You are much better off eating an edible, vaping or smoking a CBD strain flower. Hell, you can even dab CBD! Q: Is there a difference between hemp CBD and cannabis CBD? A: Nope! A CBD molecule is a CBD molecule. The difference comes from other molecules that if not removed can alter the effects of CBD such as THC. Q: What’s up with all of these CBD and THC products? A: CBD and THC are synergistic. Although CBD is great by itself, a little bit of THC added to CBD can go a long way to increase the efficacy of the medicine. 1:1 CBD to THC products are found in most dispensaries now. New or inexperienced users could try a 18:1 to start… mind the dosage, follow directions. Q: Dr. Mike HELP! I’ve consumed too much THC what can I do? A: Take some CBD. Although it may not work for everyone and results may vary, CBD has shown to counteract anxiety caused by THC. CBD stimulates the release of natural cannabinoids that binds to the same spot as THC, essentially kicking THC out. Have some questions that you want answered? Email: hi@mjwooly.com to get them answered by Dr. Mike!

Smokus Focus

Keiko Beatie

Edibles Magazine Issue 35

It was like my birthday, Christmas, Hanukkah and Easter all rolled together when I was given a brand new exciting cannabis goodie at the CannaCon show over the 4/20 holiday weekend! It was a real treat as I confess I am a “Bud Porn Junkie”, but now I no longer have to check out Ed Rosenthal’s “Book of Buds” as I have a live, real time “Smokus”. This well designed viewing tool will assist you with checking out your bud and getting lost in the microbes of snowy, sappy, frosty polyps of delight. That is of course if you have a well cultivated flower in hand. This round cylinder is a simple-to-load unit that you can easily place a bud inside. With clear panels on the outside and a light on the inside, you turn it on and peer inside as you get lost in amazement of viewing what you’ll soon be smoking. It comes complete with a protective carry bag that makes it easy to travel with and is re-chargeable. You’ll feel upscale and like a true bud coinsurer pulling this out to do a visual assessment of your flower to verify the dankness is what it claims to be. As an enlarged lit up flower doesn’t lie, this is the jeweler's loop of the cannabis aficionado. The Smokus is available in cool colors and you’ll no doubt find that the sturdy item assists you in focusing in on what we all love so much. Long live “Bud Porn”!
