Do Marijuana Strains Really Matter

There is lots of talk about indica, sativa, and hybrids – but does it really matter?

All of Canadian and over 50% of the US population have access to legal cannabis, and use is increasing and people are being more open. Sales are rocketing, but like spririts and wine, do people really focus type of strain?  Do marijuana strains really matter and what should you know? A YouGov survey asked how people purchased wine, which sells more than the cannabis industry. The top three factors in choosing a wine is price (by far), brand and ratings. With marijuana, it is markets by strain and price.

Marijuana, derived from the cannabis plant, is commonly categorized into three main types: indica, sativa, and hybrid. While these classifications have been widely used, recent research suggests that the distinctions may not be as clear-cut as once believed.

Indica

Cannabis indica plants are typically short and bushy with wide leaves. Originating from the Hindu Kush mountains of Afghanistan, India, Pakistan, and Turkey, these plants adapted to harsh, dry climates. Indica strains are often associated with relaxing and calming effects, making them popular for nighttime use. They are commonly believed to have higher levels of CBD compared to THC, although this is not always the case.

Sativa

Cannabis sativa plants are generally tall and thin with narrow leaves. They are native to hot, dry climates with long sunny days, such as Africa, Central America, and Southeast Asia. In North America, they are grown in the American South (illegally) or in grow houses. Sativa strains are typically associated with energizing and uplifting effects, often described as producing a “mind high”. They are frequently used during the day and are thought to have higher THC content compared to CBD.

Hybrid

Hybrid strains are the result of crossbreeding indica and sativa plants. Due to extensive breeding over the years, most strains available today are hybrids. Hybrids can be indica-dominant, sativa-dominant, or balanced, offering a wide range of effects depending on their specific genetic makeup.  Breeders create hybrids to combine desirable traits from different strains, such as flavor, aroma, potency, and specific effects

While the indica-sativa-hybrid classification system remains popular, it’s important to note that these categories are not scientifically accurate predictors of a strain’s effects. The cannabis plant has evolved significantly due to selective breeding, and pure indica or sativa landraces are now extremely rare. Modern cannabis research focuses on the plant’s chemical composition rather than its physical characteristics or supposed lineage. The effects of a particular strain are determined by its unique profile of cannabinoids (such as THC and CBD) and terpenes, rather than its classification as indica, sativa, or hybrid.

Marijuana Edibles Make A Dramatic Improvement

While popular, cannabis edibles have had a challenge with how long it takes to “hit”, which causes some consumers to overindulge – but a change is here!

Cannabis has become mainstream with almost 90% of the public believing it should be made legal in some form. And while smoking is still the most popular consumption among experienced users, gummies and vapes are close behind. Newer users prefer consuming in a discreet way without the smell and can be taken anywhere.  And while it seems back in the day everyone had a story about overdoing it with pot brownies, things have changed. Now, marijuana edibles make a dramatic improvement in when it takes effect.

RELATED: The Most Popular Marijuana Flavors

While vaping works similar to smoking, edibles process cannabis differently. When consumed, edibles go through the digestive tract where the cannabinoids are absorbed. Unlike smoking, which delivers cannabinoids directly to the bloodstream via the lungs, edibles take a more circuitous route.  This is why it can take form 45-90 minutes for edibles provie the high.

But new technology is making a difference, cannabis beverage (including hemp) are quicker acting, and now a gummy is hitting the market which takes effect within 5-15 minutes. Wana Brands is hitting their multi state markets with the new gummy and it is proving a benefit for consumers.

“As we uncover more information about cannabinoids and how they interact with each other, we are discovering new opportunities to create products that speak to very specific outcomes,” said Joe Hodas, President of Wana Brands. “A growing number of consumers are seeking out ways that cannabinoids can help them negotiate daily or occasional stresses, and Wana Optimals Quick Lift is a great example of how integrating three key cannabinoids can achieve results unlike any other gummy on the market.”

The new method for gummies allows them to bypass the liver and enter the bloodstream through the stomach. As a result, these gummies will have a quicker onset which an be beneficial.

Science Says CBD Oil May Help Heal Wounds

Nothing is worse than a wound, the pain, the slow healing and the potential scar…but it seems CBD oil may help.

It happens to everyone, a fall, a surgery, something which breaks the skin and becomes an open wound. It can hurt, itch or just look really bad. Not healing properly also causes problems.  Scar tissue doesn’t allow hair to grow, tends to get sunburned and can be sensitive to the touch. Research has managed to find a path to help with wounds, but more needs to be done. With all the things developed to help, science says CBD oil may help heal wounds. And this can be a good news to the 100+ million who get a nasty wound each year.
Some new research shows cannabinoids appear to improve skin wound healing through a variety of mechanisms. This is supported through a variety of in vitro and animal studies. Animal studies suggest application of cannabinoids may improve the healing of postsurgical and chronic wounds.

It is natural CBD is seen a solution to the wounds, it has multiple ways to help the body. It is a potent anti-inflammatory properties which canhelp reduce inflammation associated with wounds. By decreasing inflammatory markers and cytokine production, CBD may help control swelling and promote faster healing. Also, it can increase blood flow to the injured area, bringing more oxygen and nutrients to promote healing
It also can help with pain since the the analgesic effects  can help reduce pain associated with woundshis pain relief may allow for better wound care and less discomfort during the healing process.
Datas shows CBD exhibits antibacterial and antiseptic effects which can help keep wounds clean and prevent infection. This is crucial for proper wound healing, especially for open wounds and preventing scarring. The antioxidant properties of CBD can help reduce oxidative stress in wounds, which may contribute to faster healing
The study showed 72% of CBD-treated patients experienced complete wound healing compared to only 30% in the control group. Research has managed to find a path to help with wounds, but more needs to be done.

How Cannabis Helps With A Good Mood

There is lots going on in the world…but marijuana may be able to lift your spirits.

Back to the office, weather, politics, Karens, all taking a bite of your spirits. Over 50% of Gen Z feels anxiety, While it looks like it can be a rough autumn, there is hope. Some are born with a set of genetic variants making it easier to feel happy, while others are less fortunate. Genetic variants also play a role in an individual’s responsiveness to the environment. Some need a little more help, be it music, pets, or more. Here is how cannabis helps with a good mood.

RELATED: Science Says Medical Marijuana Improves Quality Of Life

Cannabis has gained popularity not only for its recreational use but also for its potential mood-enhancing effects. The science behind cannabis’s ability to influence mood is complex and multifaceted, involving various chemical compounds and their interactions with the human brain and body. At the heart of cannabis’s mood-altering effects is the endocannabinoid system (ECS), a complex network of receptors and neurotransmitters found throughout the body. The ECS plays a crucial role in regulating various physiological processes, including mood, appetite, and pain sensation.

The two main compounds of make the difference. First is THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol). This is the primary psychoactive compound in cannabis. It binds to cannabinoid receptors in the brain, particularly in areas associated with pleasure, memory, and cognition. By stimulating these receptors, THC can induce feelings of euphoria and relaxation. The other is CBD (Cannabidiol). Unlike THC, CBD is non-psychoactive but still interacts with the ECS. It has been shown to have anxiolytic (anti-anxiety) properties, which may contribute to improved mood.

Another path to helping is cannabis compounds can influence the release and reuptake of various neurotransmitters. Those including

Dopamine: THC can increase dopamine release in the brain’s reward centers, leading to feelings of pleasure and euphoria.

Serotonin: CBD may enhance serotonin signaling, which is associated with mood regulation and anxiety reduction.

GABA: Cannabis can affect GABA signaling, potentially promoting relaxation and stress relief.

.The anxiolytic effects of certain cannabis compounds, particularly CBD, may help reduce stress and promote a sense of calm. This stress-reducing effect can contribute to an overall improvement in mood.

It’s important to note that the mood-enhancing effects of cannabis are often dose-dependent. Lower doses tend to have antidepressant and anxiolytic effects, while higher doses may increase the risk of anxiety or paranoia.

Is Smoking Marijuana Bad For Your Lungs

It is clear tobacco is bad for the lungs and body, but what about cannabis?

More people are consuming marijuana, and it is taking a toll on the alcohol industry. But while marijuana is healthier than alcohol, what about tobacco? Is smoking marijuana bad for your lungs? There are multiple ways to consume cannabis – gummies, oils, vapes and smoking. Smoking is currently holding on to the most popular way to consume, but new users consider it “old school”.  One key reason is the effort needed to smoke.  Vapes and gummies are easier to use “on the go” and have don’t have the smell. So they are easier in larger social situations. But there is still a faithful core committed to smoking.  And for them, the lung question is important.

RELATED: Science Says Medical Marijuana Improves Quality Of Life

Smoking marijuana damages the lungs and can lead to chronic respiratory issues. Regular marijuana smokers often experience symptoms like chronic cough, increased phlegm production, wheezing, and acute bronchitis. The smoke from marijuana combustion contains many of the same toxins, irritants, and carcinogens found in tobacco smoke.

Interestingly, studies have shown mixed results regarding marijuana’s effects on lung function measures. Some research indicates marijuana smoking is associated with airway inflammation and increased airway resistance. However, other studies have found that low to moderate marijuana use may not significantly impair lung function and may even be associated with increased lung capacity. The reasons for these conflicting findings are not fully understood, but may relate to the bronchodilating and anti-inflammatory properties of some cannabinoids.

Emphysema rates appear higher in marijuana smokers compared to tobacco smokers and non-smokers. Marijuana smoking has been linked to large air pockets forming between or within the lungs, especially in heavy users. However, the evidence for increased risk of lung cancer or COPD from marijuana alone remains inconclusive and requires further research

While marijuana smoke contains harmful compounds similar to tobacco smoke, there are some key differences. Marijuana is typically smoked less frequently than tobacco, leading to lower overall exposure.

But Marijuana smokers tend to inhale more deeply and hold smoke in their lungs longer, potentially increasing damage.  And additionally, unlike tobacco, marijuana smoke is usually not filtered, which may increase toxin exposure.

Occasional use cases much less harm, so this information is for more for daily consumers, which can lead to other issues.

Like Drinking, You Shouldn’t Consume Marijuana And Drive

The old guard is still working hard to bring back the War on Drugs – state by state.

Since the arrival of Uber and Lyft, drunk driving has slowly started to decrease. Researchers estimate ridesharing was responsible for a 6.1% overall reduction in traffic fatalities and a reduction in alcohol-related within four years after their launch. Drunk driving became illegal in 1988 when the National Minimum Drinking Age Act was fully implemented. But in today’s world, drinking is slowly losing favor to using cannabis. But like drinking, you shouldn’t consume marijuana and drive.

RELATED: Science Says Medical Marijuana Improves Quality Of Life

While smell and breathalyzer tests have been effective for alcohol, technology has not fully caught up with cannabis. But that shouldn’t be a reason to skate the issue and try to drive eif stoned. Cannabis use can significantly impair driving ability and increase the risk of motor vehicle accidents. While the effects are generally less severe than those of alcohol, cannabis still poses dangers to road safety that drivers should take seriously.

The Surprising Effect Marijuana Legalization Has On Police Traffic Searches

While both substances impair driving, there are some key differences. Cannabis users tend to drive more cautiously and slowly compared to drunk drivers.  The impairment is usually more subtle and shorter-lasting than alcohol impairment.

But marijuana alone affects several key skills required for safe driving:

  • Slowed reaction time: Cannabis use delays a driver’s ability to respond quickly to sudden changes on the road.
  • Impaired coordination: Motor skills and hand-eye coordination become diminished.
  • Distorted perception: Cannabis can alter depth perception and time awareness.
  • Reduced attention: Users may have difficulty focusing on driving tasks and maintaining lane position

The level of impairment tends to be dose-dependent, with higher THC doses leading to greater driving impairment and crash risk

RELATED: Biden Administration Puts A Knife Into The Cannabis Industry

Driving under the influence of alcohol and cannabis is illegal in all U.S. states, even where cannabis use is otherwise legal.  But unlike alcohol, there is no universally accepted blood THC level indicating impairment, making enforcement challenging. Research and both for private companies and governments are figuring out ways to gauge impairment with cannabis.

Combining cannabis and alcohol leads to significantly higher levels of impairment than either substance alone.

The end of the story, is be care and keep other in mind when you think about getting behind the wheel.

Can You Become A Cop If You Have Consumed Marijuana

Police forces are hiring all over the country – but can you join up if you have consumed marijuana?

Across the country, cities and states are experiencing a law enforcement hiring binge. From Seattle to Charlotte, hiring bonuses, and more being used to recruit more women and men to the force.  But can you become a cop if you have consumed marijuana? As usual, the answer is, it depends.

RELATED: Vaping Could Have This Effect On Men

To become a cop, you have to do the following. You have to be generally over 21, have at least a high school diploma or GED, and pass a background check. Then you go a training program or police academy, pass the state law enforcement exams and pass the physical fitness and medical exams.  But what about cannabis use?

Many police departments have relaxed their stance on past marijuana use for officer candidates. While some agencies may still automatically disqualify applicants for any past use, this is becoming less common. Instead, most departments now consider factors like:

  • Recency of use
  • Frequency/extent of use
  • Type of drugs used
  • Time elapsed since last use

For example, some agencies may allow applicants who haven’t used marijuana in the past 1-3 years, depending on their policies. The specific thresholds can vary widely between departments. With marijuana legalization expanding across the U.S., police agencies are adapting their hiring practices. Some cities have reduced waiting periods between last marijuana use and application eligibility.

There’s growing recognition strict lifetime bans on past use may eliminate otherwise strong candidates. Agencies in states with legal recreational marijuana are grappling with evolving policies. Current use of marijuana, even in legal states, remains prohibited for active-duty officers in most jurisdictions due to federal law and concerns about job performance

DeSantis Uses Hurricane To Damage Marijuana Initiative

A second hurricane is less than 2 weeks is barreling down on Florida – the governor sees it as a chance to hurt the marijuana initiative

Hurricane Helene hit the Florida Big Bend causing havoc all the way to North Carolina with over 200 dead and thousands homeless.  Now,Hurricane Milton hast targeted the Tampa area and, in a rarity, grown from a tropical storm to a category 5 storm in a matter of days. While people are prepping and worrying, DeSantis uses hurricane to damage marijuana initiative.

RELATED: Is New York Finally Getting Its Marijuana Act Together

Hurricane Milton strengthened to a powerhouse Monday, driving sustained winds of 180 mph as it headed to the Sunshine State. Tampa, Orlando and St. Petersburg are three of of 5 largest population centers and are targeted by the storm. With people either planning evacuation or prepping their home for the massive storm, DeSantis sees an advantage. The Governor has decided to not extend the voter registration deadline. He has stated there’s “nothing inhibiting” unregistered voters from registering ahead of the deadline. At the same time he is urging residents on the populated west coast to heed evacuation orders ahead of Hurricane Milton’s expected landfall on Wednesday.

DeSantis has been concerned about the recreational marijuana initiative as public support and backing have been huge.  The Governor has made it clear the voters are “confused” and “should leave decisions to him” around marijuana. He worked hard to block medical marijuana, but it passed with 71% of the states voters. He has worked hard to stop this one also, but with lackluster success.  The PAC he encouraged to fight it has raised less than $20 million versus the pro group which has raised over $100 million.  Even AARP has joined the fight with research seniors (a significant voter population in Florida) has accepted and starting consuming not just for fun but for chronic pain, inflammation, insomnia and more.

Another State’s Leaders Want to Stop Medical Marijuana

The old guard is still working hard to bring back the War on Drugs – state by state.

The cannabis industry is holding its breath until after the election. Both presidential candidates have endorsed some type of movement on marijuana but the big nail biter is how the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) will move on rescheduling.  Also, Florida is deciding on becoming the next major recreational market and other states are trying to move forward.  And while almost 90% of the general public supports it, the 10% who oppose it are still fighting to the end. Now another states’s leaders want to stop medical marijuana. Nebraska is the latest to ignore public opinion and will by trying to stop medical cannabis.

RELATED: Science Says Medical Marijuana Improves Quality Of Life

Legal states have seen increased tax revenues, no change on crime and a decrease in youth consumption. The American Medical Association and the American College of Physicians along with the federal agencies Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have all spoke up about the need for rescheduling additional research to unlock more medical medical benefits. But it makes no difference to Nebraska Attorney General Mike Hilgers and Secretary of State Bob Evnen.

Another States Leaders Want to Stop Medical Marijuana

Cornhusker state citizens started a ballot initiative to bring medical marijuana to the state.  The group, Nebraskans for Medical Marijuana, garnered over 115,000 signatures. This was enough for the initiative to move forward and allow the public to decided the fate. The state has almost 2 million people with 288+ being over 65. This is a group with an increasing interest in medical marijuana use to help with chronic pain, insomnia, anxiety and other issues. But after being certified, the Attorney General and Secretary of State are calling foul and say half of the signatures are invalid. Early voting has already begun, but they would use this issue to void the results if the pro marijuana group wins.

Attorney General Hilgers’ office seeks to go further than a 1919 Nebraska Supreme Court case dealing with an anti-woman-suffrage referendum used to defeat the effort. A bench trial is set to begin Oct. 29, one week before Election Day. The case is likely to be appealed to the Nebraska Supreme Court, no matter the outcome.

RELATED: Biden Administration Puts A Knife Into The Cannabis Industry

Like Florida, where Governor DeSantis has worked against the public will on marijuana. Nebraska has a history. In 201 the “Cannabis Compassion and Care Act,” was proposed in the l state legislature. The legislation would have allowed certain patients with prescriptions to use marijuana in liquid or pill form (but not smoked leaf form) for medical purposes. Following an initial 27–12 vote in favor, the bill’s sponsor, Senator Tommy Garrett requested the bill be held until 2016. The the bill was blocked by a Senate filibuster, falling three votes short of the number failed to advance. The bill encountered strong opposition from Governor Pete Ricketts and  then Attorney General Doug Peterson.  In 2020, a medical cannabis ballot measure was invalidated by the Nebraska Supreme Court. So it is up to the voters to see what happens next.
