What's Inside
It’s a Green Revolution.
Imagine this pastoral scene: a sea of green, swaying in the breeze, happy workers carefully tending their crops, meticulously nurturing each tender leaf. Fueling it all: solar panels, LED lights and maybe even a wind generator. This is not a utopian dream; for some growers in Central Oregon, it’s a sustainability reality—and one we think is worth highlighting. In this spring edition of the Source Weekly’s biannual Leaflet cannabis guide, we’re bringing you the story of growers who interpret the term “green revolution” to mean not just growing luscious green cannabis, but also to using the greenest growing practices around. Check out the story of sustainability in cannabis on page 18.

A Q&A ON
with the
In light of recent proposed changes to cannabis policy in Deschutes County, the Source sat down with Sheriff Shane Nelson to talk pot. SOURCE WEEKLY: Have you ever smoked marijuana? SHANE NELSON: I do not discuss personal questions. I was opposed to Measure 91—recreational marijuana legalization— and educated citizens on my view. SW: Do you object to the growing of marijuana in the county, or all marijuana-related activities, such as dispensaries, labs, processors and medical use? SN: Marijuana is against federal law. I respect the voice of the voters, but it is a bad position for law enforcement when state law directly conflicts with federal law. I do not want any more marijuana grows in the county. I have heard from several rural residents who do not want to live next door to marijuana grow operations and have reported negative livability issues over marijuana smell, increased traffic to the area, water use and failure to follow county code. In addition, Oregon has an overproduction of marijuana in a system that claims to be regulated but only has 23 OLCC inspectors for nearly 1,200 grows. It is supply versus demand. Former Oregon State University Professor Seth Crawford told the Associated Press that, "Oregon produces three times more marijuana that it can consume through its legal market.” A draft Oregon State Police Marijuana Analyst report advised $4 billion to $9 billion worth of street value marijuana is being sold on the black market. [It’s time] for Oregon to pause on marijuana production. SW: There are 145 applications for producers, labs, retailers and wholesalers waiting to be processed by the Oregon Liquor Control Commission, which has stated they’re trying to streamline the process. What’s your stance on the pending applications? SN: Oregon needs to pause on marijuana productions and get more enforcement in place before reviewing these applications— do not approve anymore. They need to stay consistent on their process, streamlining leads to inconsistencies and that creates

problems. This needs to be set up more how they have their liquor store applications set up. Even though they do not have a “cap,” there are only a certain number of liquor stores that appear to get approved in any given area. The ratio of marijuana stores is far higher than that of liquor stores. Again, consistency. SW: Last year the state gave out $85 million in marijuana taxes for schools, public health, police and local governments. Our state school systems have been underfunded for decades. Do you feel the opinions of a minority of residents outweigh the tax benefits for the county? SN: Minority of residents? Where is this information coming from? Deschutes County passed recreational marijuana legalization by a slim 51 percent to 49 percent margin. Rural residents' vote counts defeated the measure by approximately 55 percent to 45 percent. I have heard over and over again people voted to legalize marijuana use—even some who have no interest in using it—they did not vote to have a marijuana producer next door to where they live. SW: Would you say you’re devoting a lot more time to marijuana-related crimes and issues these days? SN: We are, especially as marijuana grow activity increases in the county. Citizens who are concerned about livability issues are calling us to check on these grows. They are concerned about their property values—one property on the market for $675,000 in the Redmond area had two offers fall through because of a proposed marijuana grow application on Highway 126 which the commissioners rightfully declined to approve. Real estate agents have shared their concerns over property values declining from marijuana grow operations out in some of the scenic acreage areas of the county. SW: You’ve said many people have called your office against growing operations. Could you give an estimate of the number? How much staff time is that taking up? SN: Approximately about 50. I mentioned this [on your other question]. We are seeing this increase as applications for grow operations increase. LEAFLET by Source Weekly 9

SW: Are you dealing with other issues related to usage? If so, what are they? SN: We have seen an increase in marijuana DUIIs. [35 drug DUIIs in 2017, 17 of which were marijuana-related and 31 drug DUIIs in 2016—13 were marijuana related. Sgt. William Bailey provided the Source these numbers.] *These numbers do not include cases where the DUII was alcohol related, but the driver also had marijuana in their system.
more marijuana-related enforcement? SN: No. Deschutes County only received approximately $300,000 worth of marijuana money. Our office is going to ask the county commission to approve an FTE (full time employee) for the sole purpose of being proactive in marijuana enforcement. We have another FTE who works with CDD in county code enforcement and it is my projection that deputy will be working a lot on marijuana issues as well. That is approximately 200K in employees. Our office recently checked on six reported SW: If the federal government changes marijuana from a Schedule marijuana grows that were called in by citizens We have seen 1 drug, or legalizes it outright, would your opinion about marijuana an increase in marijuana-related DUIIs.

WEED READS What to Read Before—and After—You Get High by Josh Jardine
HELLO THERE! Do you enjoy reading? How about reading about cannabis? I ask because if you’re reading this column (or if it’s being read to you by a service monkey using typing-to-speech-recognition software), it seems like you might enjoy some books on cannabis. I certainly hope so, because this week’s column is about four of them. You could get them all through Powell’s or many local, independent booksellers.
The resource guide and glossary sections are well curated, with listings for growing, storage, websites, and recommended reading. If you’re looking for a book to make you stoned and well fed, this one’s for you.
Big Book of Buds: Greatest Hits: Marijuana Varieties from the World’s Best Breeders
Geared toward the home cultivator, this book is a great step-by-step guide to building your own hydroponic grow system. Its clear photo instructions take the guesswork out of the process, and the book covers everything you would need to get up and running with your four personal pot plants. Tips on cloning, CO2, watering systems, nutrient solutions, and production techniques make this a stellar handbook for the novice hydro grower. The author points out that a hydroponic cannabis garden isn’t that different from other gardens you’re tended. If you enjoy using cannabis and a power drill, but not at the same time, this is the book for you.
by Ed Rosenthal (Quick American) The Big Book of Buds series has always had a place on my bookshelf, examining cannabis strains with large, beautiful photos of—you guessed it—buds. Written by ganja guru and former Ask Ed High Times columnist Ed Rosenthal, this collection gathers 95 strains and covers how each gets you high, tips on growing and harvesting, and details on terpenes, cannabinoids, and more. A sidebar of colorful icons for each gives you extensive insight to the lineage, effects, grow times, and expected yields. Less a how-to-grow manual than a cannabis varieties guidebook, this would be a perfect gift for the weed nerd in your life. This is like Pokémon Go for the pot enthusiast, except they don’t need to leave the house and won’t get run over or robbed searching for the strains.
The Cannabis Kitchen Cookbook by Robyn Griggs Lawrence (Skyhorse Publishing) This is a wide-reaching collection of recipes from a handful of chefs and mixologists, running the gamut from appetizers to main courses and cocktails to desserts. Beautifully photographed, it dedicates the first 100 pages to giving the reader a broad understanding of strains, storage, decarboxylation and more. The book reaches the next level of culinary cannabis, though, with recipes for: green tea, cannabis and coconut brownies; cannabis sweet potato fries with hemp seeds and kelp flakes; and mary jane daiquiris. (The recipes are low dose, so as to avoid a “nom nom nom, oh God, what have I done” scenario.)
Homegrown Marijuana: Create a Hydroponic Growing System in Your Own Home by Joshua Sheets (Cool Springs Press)
The Stoner Puzzle Stash: An Activity Book for the High-Minded by Dr. Blaise Kushman (Workman Publishing) As the back of this book succinctly puts it, “You’re high, now what?” This is a fun collection of mazes, word searches, crosswords, hidden pictures, color-by-numbers, “DIY Inaction Figures,” and 82 full-color stickers. There are some true stoner activities like “Trace Your Face!” (a blank page along with the instructions, “Place your face on the blank space, then trace!”) or a Mandela Mandala (allowing you to color in a mandala of the late, great South African leader), and “fun facts” about Art Garfunkel. Silly stuff, yes. This would be a great activity book for those who get giggly after consumption. There are some very uptight people who are going to complain that this book is geared toward children, as only those 10 and under should be allowed to color. Ignore them, as they aren’t happy people and never will be. Burn one down and bust out your coloring toolkit. LEAFLET by Source Weekly 13

TWO COMPANIES COLLAB ON A SUN-GROWN PRODUCT PRODUCED IN CENTRAL OREGON By Josh Jardine
TRUTH: I’m primarily a flower guy, with the occasional foray into resin and old school hash. This isn’t to say I’m anti-hydrocarbon-based extracts, but I don’t dab on the daily, or even weekly. But if I did, I would include the product line of concentrates from the forward-looking folks at Bend-based Lunchbox Alchemy. Having gained prominence in Oregon’s cannabis industry for their 100 mg THC and CBD “Squib” edibles, (of which I have never eaten too many in one sitting, odd you would ask) they’ve made a move into the extracts field with shatter and live resin in the most innovative packaging I’ve seen for concentrates. It’s a fine product, but don’t take the word of Mr. Dainty Dabs here. The Lemon Pina Live Resin won both 1st and 2nd place at the 2017 Oregon Dope Cup, with the “Green Ribbon” Shatter taking Best Runner Up, and 1st place in the 2016 Oregon Dope Cup. The offerings are part of the new “Lunchbox Alliance,” which pairs Lunchbox with some of Oregon’s top sun-grown flower producers—starting with Phantom Farms, which produces Clean Green Organic flower grown in the ground under the sun, resulting in amazing cannabis rich with terpenes. (#sungrownissuperiorgrown) Terps were what the Alliance wanted to focus on, so they went through some extraordinary lengths to make the live resin, first driving a U-Haul to the grow site and then cryogenically
freezing colas on site, in the fields, in liquid nitrogen—much as Walt Disney had done with his head. The frozen flower was immediately driven to Lunchbox for processing, resulting in a live resin with 70.75 percent THC and over 8 percent terpenes. The shatter also tests high in THC and terpenes and comes in three tiers/labels: Red (budget entry level), Blue (premium level) and Gold (baller level top shelf). The packaging is also next level: Biodegradable inks, recycled paper and a clear window for product viewing, made from a compostable material. The THC, cannabinoid and terpene content are clearly listed in equal-sized font on the front, a choice that will help educate and motivate consumers and patients to give equal weight to terpenes as they do THC. Further supporting that mission is a website showing extensive testing results for each product, including a full terpene list, which would be too lengthy for package inclusion. The more you know…(shooting star emoji here.) I tried the Green Ribbon shatter and the Lemon Pina Live Resin using an Herbalizer vaporizer set at 390-410F. The shatter was clean and tasty, but the citrus flavors of the Lemon Pina were a flavor revelation. And both got me high, so there’s that. It’s heartening to see two things the Oregon cannabis industry needs: collaborations and easy access to comprehensive, transparent information about the products.

IN A COMPETITIVE CANNABIS INDUSTRY, A LOCAL COMPANY CUTS COSTS THROUGH SUSTAINABILITY INITIATIVES By Grant Woods
18 ISSUE 3 Lit Gifts
I
magine grandmother’s bountiful flower garden in mid-spring. Now imagine it again, but put it indoors, add Star Trek-level technology and turn those daffodils into cannabis plants. Justin Clapick and Travis Busack are the founders of Deschutes Growery in Bend. They’re the current tenders to grandmother’s “special” garden, growing cannabis professionally since 2010. Part farmers, part geneticists, part electricians, part carpenters, the duo has most recently added “sustainability ambassadors” to their resumes. Sustainability has become an essential theme for Deschutes Growery—something not done just once, but as an ongoing practice. “This is cannabis done differently,” says Busack. Deschutes Growery’s 8,000-squarefoot facility has recently undergone substantial changes—positive changes. It’s an evolution which will not only improve product quality and profit, but also the environment. Phase one of this evolution included state-of-the-art LED lighting and solar panels installed on the roof of the building. “When we’re talking about energy usage, it’s mind boggling how much is wasted with use of inefficient lighting. We now know there’s a different approach, a more responsible one,” said Clapick.
Clapick and Busack made the environmentally conscious decision to replace their high-pressure sodium lighting, the commonly used light source in the cannabis industry, with a far more efficient LED system. In 2016, they also became Oregon’s first solar-powered indoor cultivation facility. This first wave of changes in their new approach has already made an impact of $21,072 in electric bill savings annually.
fort and money into tackling these sustainability issues. “We’re eliminating waste and we’re doing it in a lot of different ways,” said Clapick. The initial costs for lessening the environmental impact can be severe for businesses in the cannabis industry. Solar panels, LED lighting, intense HVAC equipment for climate control and computers to make it all play nice together are not cheap.
"When we're talking about energy usage, it's mind boggling how much is wasted with use of inefficient lighting."
Energy Trust of Oregon Steps in to Help A huge component of the progress being made must be credited to Energy Trust of Oregon. The independent, nonprofit organization has a mission of providing information, offering cash incentives and supporting customers with technical assistance in order to save energy and generate renewable power. Energy Trust offers its services and assistance not only to the cannabis industry, but across a wide range of industries, transforming over 660,000 homes and commercial spaces since 2002. “In the Bend area, Deschutes Growery is an example of one customer with whom we’ve worked. Others include Worthy Brewing and Central Oregon Community College,” notes Becky Engel, senior communications manager at continued on page 22 Energy Trust.
— JUSTIN CLAPICK
Opportunities for sustainable practices are plentiful in the cannabis industry. Cultivation of cannabis, especially indoor growing, requires a tremendous amount of energy. The major factors are light, energy, water and the subtle but constant factor of heating and cooling. As a business, Deschutes Growery has put an admirable amount of thought, ef-
Solar panels for grow operations are a significant investment.

Without Energy Trust, important strides toward sustainability might be too financially daunting for the average company. Clapick and Busack are very open about their goal of being the poster children of sustainability within the cannabis industry. They also want to share the info with others in the cannabis industry. “What would the point be, by being the most sustainable company in cannabis, if we want to restrict everyone else from being as sustainable?” said Busack. The word is getting out. Taylor Gorman, of Certified Portland Cannabis Cultivators, says he, too, recognizes the significance and power of responsible cannabis cultivation. While the growers at Certified Portland are already conscious of their environmental footprint, the company looks forward to continuing this evolution process on a larger scale. Hearing Clapick describe the nuances of his newly installed equipment highlights his diligence. In one room, he explains the complicated HVAC system, sucking out old air and filtering in fresh air, while maintaining the exact humidity to encourage healthy crops. In the next room, he breaks the LED lighting spectrum down to the precise micromole required by the flowering cannabis plants. Watering by hand allows for zero water waste in the facility. Solar panels provide renewable energy to power their newly upgraded equipment. The team also avoids using chemical fertilizers and pesticides, opting for natural soil nutrients and implementing what Busack refers to as “bio-warfare,” using tiny helpful mites to combat other potentially harmful critters. Energy Trust began offering cash incentives and technical services to licensed medical cannabis growers in May 2013, and have since extended their services to cover the non-medical segment of the cannabis market. Engel hints that interest in energy efficiency could be on the rise as the cannabis market becomes more competitive. These valuable changes will allow growers to control costs and reduce their impact on the environment. “In 2016, Energy Trust provided incentives for lighting systems to 15 cannabis indoor grow facilities, resulting in close to 1 million kWh total annual savings,” said Engel.
'Going Green' continued...
At Bend's Deschutes Growery operation, the addition of LED lighting has made for some pulchritudinous plants. And it's made the staff pretty darn happy, too

It can be heartbreaking, so you’ve probably wondered what you can do about it. There’s a solution: CBD oil—and dogs can use it too. Here are a few things you might not know about CBD oil.
CBD is not psychotropic
While it’s derived from a cannabinoid (from hemp, not marijuana), it isn’t like a recreational drug. Your pup won’t get “high;” the oil just induces a calming state. It can help dogs who are needy or have separation anxiety Have a dog who acts out when you’re not around? A little CBD cannabis oil can make him much calmer when you’re not home.

5 THINGS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW ABOUT CBD FOR DOGS By Anne Marie Daggett, Bend Pet Express
CBD can relieve pain
It’s common for dogs to experience hip dysplasia, tumors, intestinal problems, heart problems and teething. As they age, they continue to smile and love us despite their growing pain and health decline. Wouldn’t it be great to ease their discomfort naturally, rather that resorting to that valium-like coma?
CBD is a pain reliever.
Studies have shown it reduces pain, including neuropathy. It reduces inflammation, intestinal (IBD), chronic inflammation, autoimmune disease, pancreatitis, and oxidative stress (which is caused by degenerative and premature aging).
It helps with digestion
The CBD compound helps with appetite, vomiting and nausea. It increases hunger in our pups when they’re malnourished, sick or not eating enough.
CBD helps with cardiovascular health
CBD has been shown to help reduce damage to blood vessels and irregular heart rates. CBD reduces injury to damaged arteries and veins, with less anxiety and calmness, due to a lower heart rate and blood pressure. Thanks to the studies of veterinarian, Dr. Edward Bassingthwaighte!
If your bestie is anxious, depressed or hungry, CBD is an alternative option. It’s natural, pain relieving, and calming, as well as healthy for digestion and heart health. LEAFLET by Source Weekly 29

Marijuana industry advocates are working on public consumption laws, but for now, you can’t smoke or use marijuana in a public place. That includes patios and outside areas at bars and restaurants. If you do use marijuana there it puts that place’s liquor license in jeopardy. Public places, according to the OLCC, include “hallways, lobbies, and other parts of apartment houses and hotels not constituting rooms or apartments designed for actual residence, and highways, streets, schools, places of amusement, parks, playgrounds and premises used in connection with public passenger transportation.” Consume your marijuana on private property. If your landlord doesn’t allow it, that’s legit. HOW MUCH YOU CAN HAVE According to the OLCC: Personal possession is limited to: • 1 ounce of usable marijuana in a public place (as in, marijuana that’s ready to smoke/consume) • 8 ounces of usable marijuana • 16 ounces of a cannabinoid product in solid form • 72 ounces of a cannabinoid product in liquid form • 5 grams of cannabinoid extracts or concentrates, sold alone or contained in an inhalant delivery system • Four immature marijuana plants • 10 marijuana seeds WHAT TO BRING TO A DISPENSARY Many dispensaries only accept cash due to federal banking restrictions. Also, you’ll need a legal I.D. to be admitted into the room selling the flower/extracts/etc. That can include a driver’s license, passport, tribal I.D., etc.—as long as the I.D. is valid. Don’t walk in with an expired license. continued on page 33... LEAFLET by Source Weekly 31

THE LEGAL AGE You must be 21 to consume marijuana in Oregon—and that includes consuming at home. CROSSING STATE LINES It’s illegal to take your marijuana across state lines. Do so and risk a federal offense. YOU CAN GET A DUII According to the OLCC, “Driving under the influence of intoxicants (DUII) refers to operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated or drugged, including impairment from the use of marijuana.” c/o Oregon Euphorics

MORE FUN!
Got a minute to zone and chill? Here's a little origami diversion.
1. Start with a square piece of paper, colored side up. Fold in half and open. Then fold in half the other way.
2. Turn the paper over to the white side. Fold the paper in half, crease well and open, and then fold again in the other direction.
3. Using the creases you have made, bring the top three corners of the model down to the bottom corner. Flatten model.
4. Fold top triangular flaps into the center and unfold.
5. Fold top of model downward, crease well and unfold.
6. Open the uppermost flap of the model, bringing it upward and pressing the sides of the model inward at the same time. Flatten down, creasing well.
7. Turn model over and repeat Steps 4-6 on the other side.
8. Fold top flaps into the center. Repeat on other side.
Cut here
9. Fold both "legs" of model up, crease very well, then unfold.
10. Inside reverse fold the “legs” along the creases you just made.
11. Inside reverse fold one side to make a head, then fold down the wings.
12. Complete!
