In the emerging marketplace for medical marijuana we are going to see a complete spectrum of business models given a try. The presentation will run from the almost hap-hazard to the highly organized. It’s that “highly organized” extreme that is being attempted in Tempe, AZ. The name, Harvest of Tempe, on the modest storefront [...]
When I was first introduced to cannabis, back when dinosaurs roamed the earth, everything we smoked was grown in the sunshine. That changed. Things may be changing again. Marijuana growing is not a green industry. Done mostly indoors in Washington, pot production often uses hospital-intensity lamps, air conditioning, dehumidifiers, fans and carbon-dioxide generators to stimulate [...]
Ryan Loflin, seen above storing his hemp seeds in a bag, planted the largest hemp crop in Colorado in 60 years. Loflin is planting 60 acres of hemp on land that was used for alfalfa. The crop has already gained much attention from media and a documentary film crew.
I have wondered how long it would take for some local government to figure out how much revenue could be won by being the only pot dealer in town. Here’s one: The city of Aurora could be getting into the pot business — and make itself the exclusive grower and seller of the drug without [...]

It was about a year ago when the feds were stomping all over our buds in Cali — today we are debating business plans. Read just a bit and we’ll speak, [...]
Here’s a new entrant in the race to be the third state to re-legalize. Alaska, home to lots of independent types, is in the race. Alaska voters may get the chance next year to make their state the third in the country to approve the recreational use of marijuana by adults 21 and older. Backers [...]
The Rubin Report is a online show that comes on the Young Turks Network that combines comedy and politics in the format of a discussion panel.
