But does it work?SFGate.com - Kevin Reed, the founder of San Francisco’s The Green Cross, a dispensary that’s been operating as either a delivery service or a retail store in the city since 2004, said he’s been selling CBN products since 2016, but it was only recently that the public caught on. “We’ve seen demand for CBN-focused products skyrocket over the last year as more consumers move beyond just chasing high THC and start exploring wellness-driven cannabis options,” Reed said in an email to SFGATE. Reed, one of the Bay Area cannabis pioneers, said the explosion of CBN’s popularity and recent studies showing some evidence for its effects are a sign that mainstream society is finally catching on to what “what many of us in the industry have observed anecdotally for years: that CBN, especially when paired with CBD or specific terpenes, can be incredibly effective for rest and recovery,” Reed said. Read more » ‘Dangerous’: California veterinarians are furious over latest cannabis proposalGreenState.com - California regulators are planning to ban animal cannabis products from having more than 1 milligram of THC, a proposal that veterinarians say would make the state’s market more dangerous for dogs and cats. Dr. Gary Richter, an Oakland veterinarian, called the proposed policy a “step backwards” because the strict rules would effectively eliminate most animal-focused products from dispensaries.

Earthy, skunky, whatever you want to call it, that is some pungent weed. There are aisles of plants, growing on two levels under artificial lights. They have names like Gelato 33 and Alien Runtz.

The measure from Rep. Cody Harris (R) advanced through the Senate on Tuesday. Because it was amended, it will need to return to the House of Representatives for concurrence before potentially being sent to the governor’s desk. Read more » State senator announces plan to propose new cannabis legalization legislationFOX43.com - A Pennsylvania lawmaker on Wednesday announced plans to introduce new legislation to legalize adult-use cannabis in the commonwealth after a legalization bill approved by the State House failed to make it out of committee in the State Senate. State Sen. Marty Flynn, a Democrat representing portions of Luzerne and Lackawanna counties, announced the forthcoming legislation last week. His new bill will propose a different breakdown in how tax revenue is allocated and change how the industry would be regulated compared to the last bill.

In July, the cannabis excise tax is set to increase from 15% to 19%. At a time when legal operators are barely surviving, this hike will push even more consumers to the illicit market—and punish businesses, like The Green Cross, that are following the law. AB 564 (Haney) would stop this tax increase and protect California’s struggling cannabis community. It’s already passed the Assembly Revenue and Tax Committee and heads to the Appropriations Committee this Wednesday, May 14th. Here’s the best part: It takes 2 clicks to make your voice heard. That’s it. Scan the QR code above or click this link: Halt a Tax Increase on CA Cannabis This Year Your message goes straight to lawmakers and the Governor.

California bill to freeze cannabis excise tax breezes, 6-0, through another committeeCannabisBusinessTimes.com - California legislation to repeal the state’s forthcoming cannabis excise tax increase cruised through another unanimous committee vote on May 5, providing industry stakeholders hope in avoiding an existential threat to their retail businesses. The Assembly Revenue and Taxation Committee members voted, 6-0, to advance Assembly Bill 564, which aims to stop the excise tax rate from increasing from 15% to 19% on July 1, 2025, under trigger language that Gov. Gavin Newsom orchestrated in a budget trailer bill three years ago. The four percentage points reflect a 26.7% increase. Read more » Cannabis study finds legalization reduces problematic consumption, especially among those using other drugsMedicalXpress.com - As part of the Weed Care study, researchers in Basel, Switzerland, are investigating how the legal supply of cannabis affects consumption and mental health among participants. In a recent publication, the study team has now reported on the direct comparison of the substance's legal versus illegal procurement. In Switzerland and several other countries, debates about the legalization of cannabis use have been ongoing for years. They are shaped by various hopes and concerns. On the one hand, there are the aims of curbing the black market, making it easier for consumers to access safer products, facilitating access to counseling, and promoting lower‐risk consumption. On the other hand, there are fears that legal sales could normalize consumption, possibly even encouraging it and leading to more cases of addiction and mental disorders.
