The Current Buzz Vol 2 Issue 12
it’s not only good, it’s great... american strains that is By: TCB Staff
It’s not another dispensary in the hinterlands, this new one located in Skiatook opened their doors in mid-November and we were VERY surprised at what they had to offer. No indifferent kids standing around, annoyed that customers interrupted their video games, but PROS who knew their stuff. HUHWHA? We
snooped around, sniffed their inventory and we found: 1. This is not a bunch of kids playing at budtending. They have a naturopath and nurse on staff to help you find strains that will work best for your condition(s). This is serious medicine if you are serious
about your health. If you just want to get high you can go anywhere, but if you have health questions, the staff here have answers to your questions. 2. The staff at Great American are about you, the patient. They want to help you feel better. Maybe MMJ is not what you
need. They will tell you that and help you find a new path. They would rather you left emptyhanded and told your friends that you had success than sell you something ‘for now’ and feel lost.

3. They are not a candy store. You will see a small selection of edibles, vape products and other such items, but the focus will be the flower strains. Among the biggest choices are the winners from Harvest Fest at Copperhead Grounds back in October and this dispensary is the only one in the area to carry them. That alone had our attention. 4. You can get help with more than strains and medical issues. The Great American Strains staff will take you through the steps of how to use your new devices, dab rig, water pipe, how edibles work, how vape pens work, or how much of your MMJ, dab, wax or edible you need and they’ll tell you how to know when you’ve gotten to a good place medicinally. You will get the help you want without judgement or fear of being treated like a failure. Great American Strains is easy to find; it’s a quiet dispensary located at 1298 W. Rogers, just off the main drag. They can be reached at (918) 578-5001. As of this printing, they are open seven days 10 am-8 pm.

someone knowledgeable for a few. There are dispensaries that have heard the plea of the Aunt Jennies out there too. Places like Great American Strains, Elevated Apothic, Family Buds, Green Country Health, Dr. Green, Flippin Farms, and Sweetleaf Health have all put serious thought into older patients dealing with chronic pain, fear and withdrawal, among other things. They speak ‘Aunt Jenny’ and will be better able to help her understand the way forward to less pain (and resentment).

surviving the stress of the holidays if you have SAD, anxiety, ptsd (or your family just stresses you out) by Amiea Eleban Those who love the holiday season often forget that there are many people that dread this time of year. The noise, crowds, finances, dealing with family – it all adds up to a giant ball of anxiety. Worse, those who deal with Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD, a condition where lack of sunlight affects mood) are like bears who’ve had their hibernation disturbed. Ten million Americans are affected by SAD, who knows how many just dread dealing with the insanity of holiday stress? No comment. For some, the OMMA card was a big blessing, for others, it was

people, like me, this is not the case. The holidays for me are more stress and anxiety through the roof, going to crowded places, stressing about what to get who, although trivial to most, for me it’s too much to handle. But I’ve found a way to push through and enjoy the holidays a little; Kratom! Kratom can be a great gift for anyone that suffers from pain, anxiety, stress, needs an energy boost, or evens out your mood. There are many different options and we’ve got something for everyone. Although Kratom has a bad stigma, I’ve seen it do so much good. For some, it was a small thing like giving them more energy to get through the day, but for others, it has changed their life and given them the chance to live life to
the fullest and gave them their life back. Although some people are under the impression that Kratom is an ‘opiate’. it does not give you the brain fog. As long as you don’t take too much, you can go about your daily life with a clear mind and more energy. We also offer some strains and blends for insomnia (thought we forgot about that, didn’t you?) No worries no matter what your need, we got you covered!

MORE has passed its first major hurdle, what else needs to happen? by Amy Addams The MORE Act (H.R. 3884) passed the approval of the House Judiciary Committee on November 20 (24-10). This Act is huge for many proponents of marijuana legalization. Introduced by Jerry Nadler (DNY) in July, it decriminalizes cannabis at the federal level by removing it from the Controlled Substances Act. But that’s only the beginning. MORE stands for “Marijuana Opportunity, Reinvestment, and Expungement” Act, effectively removing the criminal records that many feel unfairly target minorities and lower income Americans. Studies have shown
that marijuana charges for communities of color and other marginalized groups, such as lower income and homeless, are often much higher and more severe than for middleand upper-class white groups. Additionally, two-thirds of Americans feel that marijuana should be legalized, making the criminalization of minor pot offenses a dated and silly policy that still are akin to heroin charges at the federal level. With criminal justice reform on the forefront of social change, there are many people sitting in our prison system on marijuana charges, most with no violent

offenses beyond that. Many charges are quite recent. In 2018, over 660,000 Americans were arrested for marijuanarelated charges (we do not know if there were additional charges), but the consensus is that this taxes the criminal justice system (and our taxes) unduly. The MORE Act will now go before the overall Congress for a vote. If approved, states would have the right to make the decision on legalizing marijuana and by how much. As in Oklahoma, the decision can be left to popular vote. As the people in each state find that
their comfort levels improve, so could medical marijuana be elevated to recreational use. Or a state could choose to keep marijuana outlawed. But the MORE Act doesn’t stop there. The Bill would offer up services such as banking, credit card transactions and Small Business Administration funds

would be used for marijuana businesses. MORE would also protect cannabis users from discrimination from banks and industry. It will have three large grant programs, namely: 1. The Cannabis Opportunity Grant Program: funding loans for small marijuana businesses owned by socially and economically disadvantaged people. 2. The Community Reinvestment Grant Program: services offered to people hit hardest by The War on Drugs; job training, legal help, literacy, youth recreation, substance treatment. 3. The Equitable Licensing Grant Program: funding

MORE would follow-up on small business initiatives, ensuring that marijuana did not become a corporation. MORE would also continue to ensure that people oppressed by race and ethnicity will be allowed to make money in the marijuana industry. Whether it passes and succeeds (or not) is yet to be seen. But we are cautiously optimistic and hopeful for a change. Read the MORE Act in its entirety at www.congress.gov/ bill/116th-congress/housebill/3884/text
Carbon Dioxide ENRICHMENT • The air today has a natural CO2 concentration level of 350~400ppm. Plants have ability to consume up to 1500 ppm of CO2. • Supplementing CO2 can increase yield and growth by 20% or more. • When using high powered lights, CO2 supplementation increases plants ability to photosynthesize. • Adding CO2 can make plants more resistant to heat and light stress. • CO2 burners emit other gases during combustion that can be detrimental to plant health. A steady supply of CO2 gas is the most effective method for carbon dioxide supplementation.

The Current Buzz Holiday Guide One-Stop Christmas at the dispensary finding for others and for yourself by TCB Staff
We ventured forth into our local CBD/MMJ/grow/vape shops to see what we could see to ease your holiday stress and we were so surprised by what we encountered! There truly is something for everyone (over 18 that is) IF you are willing to stop and think for a minute. Even better, we have ideas and there are LOTS of gifts to give yourself this holiday season. No more sad gift sets of body wash from people you thought knew you (but you apparently stink). Treat your loved ones and yourself to something great this year while keeping Okie money in OKLAHOMA. We have all the ideas you need for some holiday cheer (and lots of holiday spice of a different kind). DISCLAIMER: we cannot suggest that you buy anything
laced with THC for others. There are plenty of other options. We offer you the list of what’s good out there from our advertisers who paid to keep The Current Buzz free to you all year. What you do is up to you. For all who have some kind of pain (from headache, post-op, arthritis, fibromyalgia, menstrual and more): CBD oil can be a gift from the pain gods or a waste of money. The trick is to get something worth the cost. Love your recipient? We’re going to suggest you check out your local dispensary for CBD oil, pills, salve, cream or bath product for a tired, sore loved one who needs a little break. Elevated Apothic in Tahlequah has high quality CBD products and they are happy to offer post-sale help. The packaging
& Gear are fantastic places to grab grow supplies that cater to the MMJ grow industry. If your grower has a fave shop, you may be able to look at their purchase history and help them with what they need next. The great staff at Skunk Grow If your recipient is a THC/MMJ are super smart, helpful and user, there are plenty of useful items out there if you are willing they have any dang thing you could want to be the next home to look around. Water pipes, grower. Light bulbs, nutrients, vape pens, rolling papers/ machines, MMJ cookbooks, gift additives, even SEEDS are certificates all make useful gifts expensive nowadays. You could for the medical user.

Lucky for all of us, emotional trauma. Sometimes there are plenty of shops that cater to their need to love weed; you gotta take the proverbial bull by the horns. Places Skunk Grow Supply, Greenleaf Grow Supply and Tulsa Gas like Green Country Health is tasteful (so Granny doesn’t think you are doping her up) and they have pamphlets on how to dose properly and can give you knowledge too. Write it down and put the info in your gift card.

mind a little out-of-the-way, Family Buds and Elevated Apothic, BOTH in Tahlequah, have some unusual items to make things interesting (along with knowledge, which, and while you’re there, ABliss has some great deals on pre-rolls and flower with no-hassle prices - WYSIWYG prices)-- think stocking stuffers for yourself too.
Two places we could NOT leave off your list, because they have all the other fun stuff you know you want: Patricia’s and Patchwork Pup. Yeah, maybe not to everyone’s tastes, but And NOW for SOMETHING only because you haven’t COMPLETELY DIFFERENT: we looked hard enough. all got ‘em; family members that got dem weird tastes.

Yeah, THEM. special someone are only the We got them covered too. These dispensaries are rockin’ the day-to-day but they got cool yummies and drinks that will flip your lid (pun intended) and make for a fun day for all. Sacred Herb, Herbology Zone and K’s Lil Farma offer plenty of variety in strains and edibles (shop early for best selection), but Flippin’ Farms and Sweetleaf Health have some SERIOUS sweets for your sweet – tooth, that is. Chocolate and gummies are the most popular. We ain’t playing when we say it’s a candy store. If you want to get original, there are coffees, teas, bath bombs, chap sticks, hangover cures and even feminine lubricants, tampons and more. If you don’t
beginning. Their website alone has 420 pages of products (ahem, or so we hear). Go get you something to make your Christmas extra sparkly. Worth noting is that Patricia’s has plenty of CBD stuff, smoking accessories and goodies for all your naughty friends (who are the fun ones). Patchwork Pup is worth the visit just to stand there and smell the leather. They have all kinds of gloves, vests, jackets, bags, motorcycle gear, and they can get their hands on so much more, just ask. Fabulous quality, prices are good and you can get customization to make your gift super-special. You get one sniff of all that leather and you’ll be “one for you, one for me, one for you, two for me…”.
Page 13 We can’t leave without discussing New Year Resolutions. Ready to quit smoking? Vaping Kicks Ash in Owasso and Skiatook has the safe vaping supplies that can get you out of big tobacco’s grip. They truly want to help you give up the habit. No better time than the present. See what they have to offer, read the testimonials all over the place and quit that filthy smoking habit. Better still, get one for you and another to help a loved one to quit with you. Your odds of both quitting get better if you both do it.
Have a Wonderful, Happy and SAFE Holiday Season.

last minute minutia
(a.k.a. what to give when you need to fill a stocking, shop online, or use a credit card) by TCB Staff
You bought local for most of your MMJ friends and family. The house smells like “Cheech & Chong Do Christmas, Man” yet the stockings remain almost empty (except for some pre-rolls you managed to leave alone for now) and all you got left is that credit card that no dispensary will touch.
Here are some goods you can have shipped to you, some are PRIMED and ready to be sent:
Tees. Dude, tee-shirts are everywhere. You don’t have to buy the 70’s ones with the old-timey leaf on them either. Today’s tees are more cerebral than that. There are chem formulas, Banksy and more. Hey, we love you for doing your Websites like Etsy, Tee Shirt part for the local economy this Palace and 6 Dollar Shirts have holiday season, but there comes bargains that often come in a time when we need the smell under $20 each, some under of plastic in the morning. You $10. get online and buy. It happens.
Smell proof bags. Apparently, the Amazon website DOES have everything: 25 smell-proof baggies (black) for $10 (in many sizes) can make your house less offensive to visitors while you wait for others to open the surprises that await. Or give the bags as gifts. Electronic grinder: the favorite seems to be the ‘Easy Grinder Clear Glass Electric Herb Pollen Catcher USB Rechargeable Stainless Steel Blades’. Available on Amazon for about $35 (free shipping, yay!) it’s an
investment, sure, but you can see how far you have ground up to 2 grams of your flower via the glass top, dispense right into a bowl, papers or anywhere. It’s small, rechargeable for 300 grinds via USB, AND…wait for it…you can PICK YOUR color! YAY! Available in black, blue, pink, green, silver or white, you can get one in a different color for all and get everyone color coded so there’s no sharing (it never works, be honest).

Socks and underwear. UGH! Well, if you can’t beat ‘em, at least you can be stylin’ if you get into a car accident and they see you in your pretty clean new undies. Think how relieved your momma will be to know that you had clean undies on (ummmmm?). Better idea: DON’T get into a car accident, but look good in these sexy socks and undies anyways. Now, smokin socks and undies are damn near everywhere, baby. If you want the ones with authentic weed smell on them, there are local shops, but if you want the plethora of purchase power, you GOTTA see what’s out there in webbie world. It’s CRAZY!!

Undies. For some reason, weed seasoned undies are not only nice but naughty as well. We’ll always tell you to hit local first, like Patricia’s (no minimum to get shipping, you’re already there), but if you must go online, master dank, PSD Underwear, Inked Shop and rue21 have choices as does geekyget.com. Apparently, weed undies are a big deal but we don’t know why. Don’t send us pictures of your new weed undies. Ew. Happy Holidays! Be safe, happy, healthy and stylin’.

UNCLE FUDGE’S FAVORITES This month I sampled so many medical cannabis strains that it is difficult to determine which I enjoyed most. Starbud from Ganulv Gardens stands out. Another was Chem I-95 from Emerald Wholesale. Shiboli Farm produced the best Jack Herer I have tried. The Pound Genetics has a strain called La Cush Cake #4 that should be a staple in every patient’s medicine cabinet.
be getting rich, right? Grow supply stores, in turn, should be thriving. Of course, dispensaries must be making lots of money because everyone seems to want one.
I can’t help but wonder where this is all going. I haul The Current Buzz Cannabis Newspapers around and drop them off for my brother. Last month TCB lost 11 distribution locations due to dispensary closings. Yet dispensaries are still opening at an alarming It was also cool witnessing rate. Assuming growers and Oklahoma’s first “Croptober”. processors can supply that Marijuana abounds in Oklahoma many dispensaries, are there right now – if you have the enough patients to consume the cash to purchase it. Dispensary amount of cannabis produced in owners must be getting rich Oklahoma? at the prices they charge for a gram. What happened to lids? You may be wondering why I am suddenly concerned about Someone is growing the the business of cannabis? cannabis to supply the Well, my brother is one of them dispensaries. The growers must dummies who just opened a
damned dispensary. I watched him pay well over $5000 for two — yeah, you heard me right — two pounds of pot! And he didn’t even smoke it…he looked at a #@%# LAB REPORT! It’s no wonder dispensaries are closing with owners behaving that way. On the bright side I did get to sample twenty-seven different kinds of pot this month. You can get all 27 strains at Great American Strains, 1298 W Rogers Blvd in Skiatook. Yeah, I am giving my brother a plug because he is going to need all the help, he can get in a town with 8000 people and eight dispensaries. Fortunately, my brother has experience as a janitor, so he can always fall back on that. If you do decide to visit Great American Strains be sure to take a non-perishable food item with you. You can save 15% off your total firsttime purchase thru December
23rd. All food collected benefits Heaven Sent Food Pantry in Skiatook. By the way, Uncle Fudge’s Favorite this month is Gelato grown by Red Earth Herbals. Grown outside in rich Oklahoma soil and sunshine. Then beat to hell by a machine trimmer making the buds fat and ugly. Not as ugly or fat as my ex-wife, but those little ol’ buds pack a punch like her right hook. I would love to meet you folks who read my writin’. We will be at the Cowboy Cup in Stillwater this month. The Current Buzz booth will be setup there, come over and introduce yourself. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from your favorite Uncle. - Fudge

Beyond Brownies: old fashioned molasses cookie recipe by TCB Staff 1 egg 1/4 cup molasses 1 1/2 tablespoon maple syrup 2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce Thoroughly mix all dry ingredients with a whisk. (Flour, spices, baking powder, baking soda, and salt) in a medium bowl. Mix butter and brown sugar in a large bowl. Next mix in egg, vanilla, molasses, maple syrup, and applesauce. After that is mixed gradually add in flour mixture and mix until thoroughly combined. Once that’s done put the mix in the freezer for ten minutes to make the dough easier to handle. After it’s been chilled, roll spoonful amounts into balls and bake at 350 F for 6-8 minutes. Glaze recipe 1 cup of powdered sugar 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 3 teaspoons - 2 tablespoons of milk (depends on how thick or runny you want the icing) 1 heaping teaspoon of each: allspice pumpkin pie spice ginger ground cloves 1/2 tsp of baking soda 1/2 tsp of baking powder
1/4 tsp salt 2 cups + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1/4 cup of butter/canna butter (softened) 3/4 cup dark brown sugar 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Mix the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract with a whisk (I would start off with a smaller amount of milk and work your way up). You can always add more if you want thinner icing. You can also sub the milk for
non-dairy milk as well. Add your desired amount of icing to each cookie once they have cooled. Editor’s Note: Your CBD/ THC levels will depend on the strength of your canna butter and the size of your cookies. We cannot give you accurate measures due to so many variables. If you know the THC/CBD content, there is a handy little calculator at: www.wakeandbake.co/thcdosage-calculator/. You will need to know the THC or CBD percent, and how many grams you have of butter and MMJ. 1/8 ounce = 3.5 grams 1/4 ounce = 7 grams 1/2 ounce = 14 grams 1 ounce = 28 grams As soon as you know the whole THC number for your canna butter, count how many cookies you made. Example: If you made 48 cookies using 1/4 cup of canna butter with 10% THC, you end up with about 14.6 THC mg per cookie. If you made 24 cookies, you would have 29 THC mg per cookie. This is also perfect evidence that we would be a lot happier if we converted to the metric system.

THE SHAKEDOWN - DECember It ALL Matters
hate to see this happen to anyone.
Holiday green safety and why it matters It appears that the men in blue have a system for detecting your use of the green. Which means you are no longer able to get high and drive 20 miles under the speed limit, stopping for yield signs and get home safely. The po-po are watching and your OMMA card does not protect you from their wrath when you are behind the wheel.
A device called The Hound can detect alcohol and recent marijuana use (edibles too), which is good and bad for the potential future of legalizing marijuana (recreational and medical), but it could be a hazard for the DUI-ers, especially the amateurs. If you
The best solution would be to get a strong airtight opaque container, by using this, you can expand the life of your stash and preserve the potency. If they are making a MMJ degree program, It matters When universities sit up and take notice, you know you’ve arrived (or at least they see the profitability in what you do). It’s finally happened that hole in your bag well, it could are one of THEM, pack a bag, the University of Maryland is be exposed to moisture, thus hand over your keys, leave offering a Masters in Medical causing your stash to mold.

According to the company, it is fair to the driver, the police and the other drivers on the roads. Storage and why it matters Plastic Zip-lock bags, not the best for storing your weed.

a bit of indifference to what we want where some (or most) things are concerned. It’s our job to watch them and throw them to the curb when they do not do as we have asked. When we still have people being arrested for minor marijuana infractions, we need to look at a bigger picture. By voting to only take care of your immediate needs, you miss so much. These same politicians are likely to make your OMMA card invalid tomorrow (and your freedom).

did not plan, black market and persistent poverty (to name only a few issues) have made some politicians yearn for the good old days where we locked everyone away. There are non-violent offenders still in the Oklahoma prison system for weed. Only just
over 400 inmates have been released as of mid-November (3,000 was Stitt’s promise). Marijuana arrests have INCREASED nationwide, including Oklahoma. That’s right, the profitability of prisons overrides your right to have marijuana. Don’t get indifferent now.
Your vote: it REALLY matters We keep beating this drum (made out of dead horse) yet so many still don’t get it. If all you do is show up to vote on MMJ/ MJ-specific bills or laws, you are SO missing the point. Our elected leaders have developed
We have a pretty big national debt. If we stopped spending right now, every person in the country would owe over $70,000 to get the bill down. I ain’t got it, do you? Marijuana is a good bet, but crop yields, over-taxing, dispensaries who
