Malka Labell of the Green Generation Co brings the latest bud-biz-buzz on The Business of Cannabis. We discuss latest the latest innovations, regulations and anything else making some bud-biz-buzz.

We wondered this week why a man from the United States is trashing Canadian cannabis stocks and Malka issued a challenge to him. You can also take the challenge, details in the episode. In Changemakers it is 'Networking Online' that is one of the few silver linings to come out of Covid19 and there are some really creative things happening right now while we aren't able to all get together and meet up. In What it Means to be Green Malka introduced me to Charged Carbon and how it can help protect and speed up plant growth.

David Wylie of the oz joins me each week to discuss the latest on This Week in Cannabis News. Things happen fast in the still developing cannabis industry and we’ll bring you the top stories.

This week it was Canopy Growth expanding and taking part in an American industry event that could move the cannabis industry forward. Legal retail outlets in Canada are asking the RCMP for help in shutting down illicit online and pop up stores that are being promoted alongside legal stores on some websites. One Manitoba man wants to be able to grow his four plants just like most everybody across the country and he's taking the fight to the courts and we updated what is happening south of the border when it comes to federal legalization in the United States.

We dove into the world of Micro-Cultivating this week with Kieley Beaudry of Parkland Flower. Kieley explained what micro is and what the process was like to get their facility up and running. They will be focusing quite a bit on seeds, which is great for home growers!!! We discussed the fun of growing and what her favourite part of the process is, as well as what's next in cannabis and how Canada is becoming a model for every country looking at legalization. David Wylie of the oz and I discussed a number of interesting stories on This Week in Cannabis News. From Canopy Growth expanding in Alberta to retail stores wanting help from the RCMP and one man's crusade for Manitobans to grow their own weed. Chris Ianson is our Educator and the Manager of the Nova Cannabis Jasper Avenue location in Edmonton, we explored Cake from Habitat Craft Cannabis in What's That Strain?!?!? It has so much trichome coverage it looks like it's covered in frost or dust, simply caked. It's a very unique strain bred by Habitat themselves. Malka Labell of The Green Generation co dropped in for The Business of Cannabis where the wondered why one American analyst is trashing Canadian cannabis stocks and you can take the Canadian Cannabis Stock Challenge at her website. Our Cannabis Question is what you do with your already vaped bud while our Cannabis Character is Sam McPherson played by Tim Meadows in Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story and it was 'hotbox' and 'Cannabis Cup' in Weed Words of the Day.

Enjoy!

Our Educator Chris Ianson, the Manager of the Nova Cannabis Jasper Avenue location in Edmonton has us diving into Tutti Frutti this week in the pre roll form from Kolab Project. There is a whole lotta Haze in this strain's lineage so you will likely want to be doing something active when you use this. You will also appreciate the environmentally friendly packaging and the humidity pack inside. It's sweet with a berry aftertaste and some spice as well thanks to the fun terpene profile.

This week Malka Labell of the Green Generation Co and I discussed why Canadian cannabis companies are being forced to 'lab shop' their strains. Some cannabis growers will send the strain out to several different labs and pick the highest THC content that comes back from the lab. That number goes on the package, but THC consistency throughout a plant doesn't always happen. It's led to some lawsuits and many angry customers when they get it tested themselves and find it's not what the label says. In Changemakers we put the spotlight on Nature Mary, a company producing topicals and cosmetics using the whole plant (use the promo code GREENGEN to get 10% off). In What it Means to be Green Malka provided a terrific salad analogy for cannabis.

On This Week in Cannabis News with David Wylie of the oz we praised the company Dutchie for it's ability to raise money, get a foothold in the industry and attract some celebrity investors. We also dove into a study from 2 American university researchers that shatters the myth about cannabis being detrimental to creativity. As the U.S election nears the Biden/Harris ticket will be looking to decriminalize cannabis and how that differs from legalization. Plus pot vending machines in Colorado and missing the point with an article about the fight between the legal and illicit market.

This week husband and wife band mates Josh and Katie Pascoe of  Fresh Breath joined me to discuss the connection between music and cannabis.  From their name to the writing process to some lyrics, cannabis has meaning for this duo. They've also seen first hand the power of cannabis as a healing plant. David Wylie of the oz dropped in for This Week in Cannabis News where we questioned headlines and discussed celebrities getting into the E commerce side of cannabis as well as what might happen with the plant if Biden/Harris win the United States election in November. Plus vending machines and shattering myths about cannabis and productivity. Chris Ianson is our Educator and the Manager of the Nova Cannabis Jasper Avenue location in Edmonton and we explored Tutti Frutti pre rolls from Kolab Project. They are dynamite and I really want to visit the retail store they have in Lloydminster. The lineage behind this sativa is wild and long while the high will creep up on you a little before the full effects hit you. On the Business of Cannabis with Malka Labell of the Green Generation Co we discussed why LPs are forced to Lab Shop their strains, how the science of hemp can help your skin and a salad analogy for cannabis that is spot on!!! Our Cannabis Question is about your newest accessory and to win a prize you must send me a picture!!!

This week Chris Ianson of Nova Cannabis and our Educator took us on an interesting journey. We explored Tropical Cookies from Ignite. The man behind Ignite does not have a great reputation (a simple google search will reveal several less than flattering articles) and while Ignite might spend money like it's Monopoly Tropical Cookies is a great strain with terrific lineage and has won it's share of awards. It has an immediate sweet taste and some sour on the exhale with hints of spice
