Connecticut Towns Take Different Approachs to Allowing Marijuana Businesses – CT Examiner
As many Connecticut towns take a wait-and-see approach to recreational marijuana — passing a moratorium to allow 6 months to a year to evaluate the situation — other towns are moving more quickly in an effort to provide clarity and allow preparations for potential applicants to enter the state lottery for growing and retail licenses next year. Laurie Zrenda, the former owner of the medical marijuana dispensary Thames Valley Relief in Uncasville, has taken a pro-active approach in hopes of securing a state permit to operate a recreational marijuana dispensary in her hometown of East Lyme. Zrenda said she bought…

GOP Pennsylvania Senator With Federal Law Enforcement Background To File Marijuana Legalization Bill – Marijuana Moment
Another California city has effectively decriminalized a wide range of psychedelics, with the Arcata City Council unanimously approving the reform on Wednesday. The 5-0 vote means that the possession, cultivation and distributions of entheogenic substances like psilocybin and ayahuasca will be among the city’s lowest law enforcement priorities. The measure further calls on the Humboldt County District Attorney “to consider the spirit and intent of this resolution when evaluating whether to prosecute persons involved in the use of Entheogenic Plants and Fungi.” It explicitly states that the commercial sale and manufacturing of psychedelics, as well as driving under the influence,…

Is legal weed finally coming to Pennsylvania? – 94.5 PST
It’s not time to spark up yet, but the Pennsylvania legislature is trying once again to make marijuana legal in the state. If it gets passed, Pennsylvania would become the 17th state in the nation to legalize recreational marijuana for adults. Under the proposed law, people age 21 and over would be able to buy and possess up to an ounce of marijuana. And unlike in New Jersey, you can get a permit for certain home growing too. State Representative Jake Wheatley is the one who proposed the bill, tweeting that, “Not only would it create jobs and generate much-needed…

Digital photo manipulation has blurred the lines between art and reality so completely that any truly remarkable image carries the weight of our collective skepticism; our minds no longer trust what our eyes can see. Such is the case with Sirius Black, a strain which boasts such a dazzlingly deep purple coloration it immediately inspires that nagging postmodern question: “Is it real?” Thankfully, not only is the shockingly vibrant violet of Sirius Black real, it’s a natural result of some very deliberate work by the Oregon Breeders Group — not a byproduct of the cold temperatures most strains require to produce…

A new survey has found that the majority of cannabis consumers in 2021 could be classified as “stoners,” and that maybe we need to rethink what exactly that “stoner stereotype” should be in the first place. Carried out by the cannabis industry analysis firm BDSA, the survey found that at least 62% of consumers who use inhalable cannabis products use them at least once a day, and that while around 60% of consumers in adult-use states consume in the evening, 30% of consumers are still “wake and bakers.” RELATED: More Proof That Cannabis Users Aren’t Lazy and Unmotivated The stereotypes The BDSA survey also…
