Terpenes are a class of organic compounds that are found in many plants, including cannabis. They are responsible for giving plants their distinctive aromas and flavors. In cannabis, terpenes work alongside cannabinoids like THC and CBD to produce the unique effects associated with different strains. There are over 100 different terpenes that have been identified in cannabis, each with its own unique aroma and potential effects. Some of the most common terpenes found in cannabis include:
A terpene profile is a list of the terpenes that are present in a particular strain of cannabis, along with their relative concentrations. By understanding the terpene profile of a strain, you can get a better sense of the potential effects that strain may have. For example, a strain with a high concentration of myrcene may be more sedative and relaxing, while a strain with a high concentration of limonene may be more energizing and uplifting.
There are several potential benefits to understanding terpene profiles when consuming cannabis:
Whether you're new to cannabis or looking to try a new strain, researching the terpene profile can give you a better sense of what to expect. Start exploring the benefits of terpenes today.
]]>While hashish and cannabis oils have existed for a long time, their popularity was always niche amongst American cannabis users. Smoking cannabis in a joint was for a long time the most popular method of consumption, but with the cultural shift away from unhealthy forms of consumption such as smoking, cannabis concentrates have found a new lease on life. In the last two decades extracts and edibles have come to dominate the market and dabbing has transformed cannabis culture.
Solventless rosin has humble beginnings and was first created with nothing more than a pair of hair straighteners and parchment paper. The simple application of heat and pressure liquifies and squeezes out the oils in cannabis flower to create an all natural extract for vaping. In time diy rosin presses began to be invented and eventually dedicated commercially produced equipment began to hit the market. Since then the rosin industry has skyrocketed. Not only with people making their own rosin but professional producers stepping up to provide the highest quality rosin en masse.
Initially, solvent based extracts such as BHO and CO2 oils gained widespread popularity, but thanks to their use of petrochemicals and trace solvents remaining in the extracts consumers quickly began to shift to rosin as an all natural alternative. A more health conscious populous have taken a keen interest in what goes into their consumables and are generally put off by chemical additions and chemical production processes when it comes to choosing what they put in their bodies. As a result, solventless rosin has begun to take over the concentrate game thanks to its cleanliness and superior flavor making it the better choice for many.
Not only is rosin one of the most popular cannabis concentrates today, but the rosin market is still growing and doesn't look like it will slow down any time soon. Rosin extraction companies are setting up at an impressive rate and as a result, more solventless options are available at dispensaries than ever before. Add to that the ability for people to buy a rosin press and make solventless concentrates themselves, and you have a recipe for a continually expanding market place for rosin products and equipment.
The future of solventless rosin isn’t just bright, it’s iridescent, so why not check out some premium rosin the next time you hit the dispensary and see what all the hype is about.
]]>Croptober is here, and it's time to celebrate! As the days get shorter and colder, we can take comfort in knowing that our favorite plants are getting ready to be harvested. A lot of work goes into growing cannabis, so this is an important milestone for farmers. The season culminates with harvest parties where growers get together to celebrate their hard work as well as enjoy the fruits of their labor.
Croptober is the time of year when cannabis farmers harvest their annual crop. While initially it was merely a time of year where cannabis consumers and farmers rejoice alike, it's become more and more branded as cannabis becomes more and more commercialized.
This momentous occasion is followed by a long and careful drying and curing season, where the plants are hung in carefully controlled conditions to allow for optimal preservation of flavor, aroma, and potency. Croptober is now so popular, that has its own Instagram hashtag with over 4.5k posts mentioning it specifically.
The hashtag was created by Rachael Rooney and Leighton Grimme in 2016 as a way for cannabis farmers to share photos of their harvests online. It was inspired by the fact that many growers have started posting pictures on Instagram during this time of year.
Croptober began with a simple idea: to connect people who love cannabis and want to celebrate the harvest. As users shared pictures of their flowers and buds, the hashtag became something much more than just an excuse for people to enjoy some "self-care" after months spent tending to plants in their gardens; it's become a cultural phenomenon!
Croptober is a time of celebration, but it has humble origins. Farmers spend most of their days working hard and often go unnoticed. But as summer comes to an end and the harvest begins, they sometimes get creative with the colorful plants during harvest. They use different colored lights that are sometimes used to make the plants look more interesting or even help them see the buds better.
But why?
Harvest pictures are a great way to show off your hard work and get some free marketing at the same time. These photos can also be shared on social media, like Instagram and Facebook. In addition, you can share them with other growers by posting them on cannabis forums or other websites.
Drying and curing, or the drying and curing process, is an important part of cannabis consumption and typically happens during or immediately after crops are harvested. This process is crucial for the quality of your final product and should not be rushed. To ensure that you have a good product at the end of all this hard work, you must let your buds dry for at least two weeks after harvesting. The drying phase allows chlorophyll to break down in the leaves while helping cannabinoids (THC) bind with terpenes to create new compounds; these compounds determine what kind of high you will get from consuming your crop. While we're at it, here's some quick tips on drying and curing.
The smaller the flower is at harvest time, the faster it will dry. This means lower stress levels for your plants during their final weeks before harvest as well as faster results for yourself when it comes time for curing!
Smaller buds also tend to be easier for people who aren't used to handling large quantities of marijuana at once because they don't require any additional effort when handling them during processing; instead of trying not drop those massive nugs onto themselves from above (like with larger strains), smaller ones would easily fall into small hands without much difficulty at all! Plus there won't be any risk involved with dropping them everywhere like some kind of clumsy idiot either... so there's really no reason why anyone wouldn't choose this option over something else."
The cannabis community is growing and expanding, and we’re excited to see what the future holds. With more states legalizing marijuana and other countries following suit, there has never been a better time to get involved in this industry and share your story with others who are interested in learning about how cannabis can help improve their lives.
]]>Why do you need to dry and cure cannabis buds after harvest?
When you grow cannabis, one of the most important things to do is dry and cure your buds. When you harvest your crop, the plant will be covered in a thick layer of sticky resin. This resin contains all kinds of cannabinoids and terpenes that give each strain its unique flavor and effects. You want to preserve these compounds as much as possible so that when you smoke or vape your bud, it tastes good and gets you feeling high and might just like when it was harvested!
What is the difference between drying and curing cannabis?
How to dry cannabis flowers
When it comes to drying, there are a few important things to keep in mind. The first is that you need a dry, well-ventilated area for the flowers to hang out. If there’s any moisture left in the air after they come out of your jar or bag, it can cause mold and bacteria growth—which will ruin your buds. The second thing is that no heat source should be used during this process; fans and humidifiers are also banned from the room where you're hanging your weed. A dehumidifier can help bring down humidity levels if needed (but don't use one or you'll end up with crispy buds).
Finally: It's important not to leave cannabis flowers out on display when they're drying! That means no window sills with direct sunlight coming through them because those UV rays will burn off some of those precious cannabinoids like THC and CBD before they've had a chance to develop properly (and get stored inside).
How to cure weed
Curing marijuana is the process of drying and storing your weed after harvest. It’s also known as “aging,” and it improves both the taste and scent of buds while removing chlorophyll from them. This means that curing cannabis can help you get rid of green, grassy smells in favor of more pleasant fruity or earthy aromas.
Curing takes place after harvest, when the buds are dry enough to be handled safely (usually 4-6 weeks after flowering has stopped). The best way to do this is by air curing your dried cannabis in an airtight jar (like one made from mason jars), but if you don't have any jars lying around then paper bags work just fine—just make sure that there's no light getting into them!
Don't rush the process
You've taken the time to grow a beautiful and healthy cannabis plant, but if you rush the drying process, your plants will be less potent. It's tempting to take your harvest down from the grow room as soon as they're dry enough to handle. We've all done it—the weight of all those plants is just too much to bear! But if you don't let them properly dry out and cure (typically 2-3 weeks for buds and 6+ weeks for flowers), then all of your hard work will go up in smoke.
]]>Solventless extraction methods involve separating the cannabis trichomes from the green plant materials without the use of chemical processing, and that results in the purest and cleanest products possible. Solvent based concentrates on the other hand rely on heavy petrochemicals such as butane to do the extracting, and no matter how well flushed of these chemicals, residual solvents remain in the products you consume.
The addition of artificial flavorings and cutting agents such as e-acetate have also become common in solvent based extracts, as has chemical post-processes such as ethanol winterizing for example. Solventless extracts however come with no added processing or ingredients, and capture the true essence of cannabis without the need for hidden chems.
One of the greatest benefits of solventless extracts are that they’re just pure natural products with no chemical additions or trace solvents present. Flower rosin uses heat and pressure to liquify cannabis oils directly from the plant, and bubble hash production uses nothing more than water to collect the plant's trichomes. That means you know exactly what you're getting when you buy solventless and that's cannabis, and nothing but cannabis.
What's more is that solventless extracts are made by hand, and with a great deal of care, attention, and love. You don’t just get superb flavor and potent clean hits with concentrates such as solventless rosin, but also a more authentic cannabis experience at the same time.
]]>Growing from seeds or “germination” has sustained cannabis cultivation for thousands of years. In fact, it’s still the principal means of creating new hybrids and genetics. However, when it comes to producing cannabis on larger scales, seed propagation has a number of drawbacks.
Firstly, plants grown from seeds will be inconsistent with wide variations in size, potency and yields. Furthermore, a significant percentage of the seed grown plants will be male and need to be destroyed in order to create seedless or “sinsemilla” flower. This makes seed propagation unsuitable for large scale cultivation, which is why commercial producers rely on a different method.
Cannabis Clones: Stem Cloning
The majority of cannabis cultivators today make use of stem cloning to supply the large number of plants required for commercial production. This involves growing healthy and high-quality mother plants from which cuttings can be taken and planted. And the result? A large number of identical female plants with stable genetics and consistent potency, flavor, and yields. However, even stem cloning has its issues, principally the amount of time, space, and resources required to keep a large clone nursery viable.
Micropropagation: Tissue Cultures
In order to scale up production further, industrial cultivators have been seeking to utilize an agricultural biotech method known as micropropagation, which can be seen as a highly advanced lab grade version of cloning. With this method, small tissue samples are taken from plants with the most desirable genetic traits and then propagated in a highly controlled sterile environment where they are given a perfect blend of nutrients and hormones. An almost infinite number of genetically identical plants can be produced with micropropagation, and more importantly, the tech can be scaled up in a way that stem cloning cannot.
Cannabis Genetics: Molecular Breeding
While micropropagation may seem like a miracle tech for industrial cannabis production, it unfortunately leaves the door open to molecular breeding, which allows for all sorts of genetic modification. The thought of GMO cannabis might be an unpleasant one for many, but it's already becoming a reality and looks set to dominate the industrial cultivation scene in the future.
Fortunately however, as we have seen with other agricultural produce, negative public perceptions of genetic modification has resulted in a large organic market for naturally grown alternates, and should GMO cannabis become a reality, it's almost certain that the same organic market will exist for cannabis products, too.
]]>Though the name “cannabinoid” may lead you to believe these compounds are unique to cannabis, several cannabinoids have been found to exist in other plants. Yet cannabis has its own unique cannabinoids too. While it is widely regarded that there are 113 known cannabinoids created by the cannabis plant, that number only alludes to the potential. Scientists struggle to find traceable amounts of certain cannabinoids in cannabis plant specimens and, with the federal government still doing more to prevent than support official research efforts, it’s easy for new cannabinoids to remain hidden. Though scientists have identified over 100 cannabinoids that occur within the cannabis plant, only a handful have received anything resembling meaningful study and attention.
Many with a casual understanding of cannabis would be quick to name THC and CBD as the most well known cannabinoids produced by cannabis, but these cannabinoids are not directly produced by the plant. Rather the process of decarboxylation is necessary to create the chemical reaction that transforms THCA and CBDA, the naturally occurring cannabinoid acids, into the highly sought after cannabinoids so popularly related to cannabis consumption. It’s no coincidence that the resulting compounds from THCA and CBDA are the most well known. They’re also the most populous in the cannabis plant. But other somewhat well known cannabinoid acids joining them include CBGA and CBCA. While consuming cannabinoid acids will not produce the same effects as those of the activated compounds, the minor amount of research conducted on cannabinoids has shown them to have their own unique benefits. Many of these benefits relate directly to how the cannabis plant directly benefits from the cannabinoids. For example, some cannabinoids may repel pests or act in other defensive roles. They even have some impact on the medicinal qualities of the cannabis plant, though not enough research has been gathered to determine to what extent.
We can’t simply examine a cannabinoid to understand a blanket effect it would have. That’s because the way our bodies interact with cannabinoids depends on which of our cannabinoid receptors is bonding with the given compound. The human endocannabinoid system relies on two known receptors commonly referred to as CB1 and CB2 receptors, though there is at least a 3rd theorized receptor often called GPR55. Most of the CB1 receptors are located in the brain while most CB2 receptors are located in the body. Therefore,the elicited responses that our minds and bodies have to cannabinoids relies greatly on their bonding to a specific type of receptor. With the vague general concept of how cannabinoids interact with us on a physiological level only coming into theory within the last 40 or so years, it’s little wonder that we still have a long way to go toward understanding cannabinoids that occur in the cannabis plant. However, it is believed that the numerous purported medicinal benefits of cannabis are influenced by these cannabinoids.
Now that we have a general understanding of cannabinoids, let’s take a look at some of the most commonly identified cannabinoids along with their purported benefits as supported by the scant research that has been federally permitted so far. Again, the woefully outdated federal classification of cannabis has prevented much-needed official research into these cannabinoids. We’ve included naturally occurring cannabinoid acids as well as cannabinoids activated by common chemical reactions.

Solventless extraction is all about separating trichomes from the plant materials. That makes it important to select strains with the highest trichome count possible as the more resinous trichomes there are, the more rosin you can squeeze out. Therefore it becomes critical to inspect your cannabis with a magnifying glass to see the quality and quantity of the trichomes present so you can pick the best bud for extraction.
Terpenes are the flavor and aroma producing components of cannabis. The more pungent an aroma cannabis has then the more terpenes it contains, and that results in a more flavorful extraction. So always take time to smell your cannabis and select strains that have the strongest possible aroma, and avoid stale varieties as many of its terpenes will have degraded which will leave your solventless rosin lacking in taste and smell.
Probably the single greatest consideration when it comes to selecting cannabis for solventless extraction is how well it was cultivated. A decent strain cultivated well will always outperform a great strain that has been cultivated poorly so always seek out the most well grown bud you can get your hands on. Ultimately, using cannabis that has been cultivated to its maximum potential will net you the biggest gains when it comes to pressing it into solventless rosin.
Once you’ve learned how to assess cultivation quality, trichome density, and terpene content you can turn your attention to selecting suitable strains. Some strains of cannabis simply perform better than others when pressing solventless rosin and there are a number of top performers we would recommend. GG4 aka Gorilla Glue #4 and Chemdawg are great strains to check out, but also take a look at Papaya, GMO aka Garlic Cookies, and any of the “White” strains as they also work beautifully for solventless extraction.
That’s our guide to choosing the best strains to process for solventless extraction. Hopefully with these tips you’ll be able to select the most suitable cannabis for turning into beautifully potent and flavorful rosin.
]]>Monterey Kush Co. consistently produces immersive quality with results that transcend the sensory into a higher echelon of psychoactive experience. And while consistency is often an elusive component of fledgling cannabis brands, Monterey Kush Co. has fine tuned a system that produces reliable results time and time again. While they obviously aren’t going to divulge all their trade secrets, they have shed enough light on their cultivation process to give us a good idea of how they achieve their impressive consistency. It all starts with a mixed-light system that gives the company the benefit of eight flowering cycles annually thanks to the ability to operate without break through the year. Admittedly, this has more to do with how they achieve their heavy yields, but this constant state of cultivation also allows them to iron out their methods without any gaps in between.
The road to consistency starts when clippings are harvested from the Monterey Kush Co. mother stock to facilitate clones. The use of these replanted clones reinforces the root growth vital to a healthy, bountiful crop. This is also where a direct focus on consistency is fostered, since the replanting of the clones maintains a pristine quality to the flower and a homogeneous structure to the canopy. These steps start the cultivation process on the perfect foot for reliable results. The clones will spend anywhere from 2 to 3 weeks in a propagation stage before they are cleared to move on to the next phase of the cultivation process.
From here, the young plants are transported to a nursery at the Monterey Kush Co. facility where they will spend roughly 8 weeks maturing. During the initial phase of the growth cycle, Monterey Kush Co.’s cultivators implement trellising; a system of ensuring that all bud sites get enough light while reinforcing the growing plant’s structure and creating that homogeneous canopy we mentioned earlier. Vigorous growth is stimulated through a precise watering routine and skilled pruning of the fan leaves.
Then, it’s onward to the flower house for an 8 to 10 week flowering period. Exactly 10 days before harvesting, the plants are flushed to provide a natural signal for flowering to complete the growth cycle of the plant.
A dry trimming process known as bucking is then employed to bolster yields while trimmers also remove the fan leaves. Once this is complete, the plants are transported to humidity-controlled rooms where they are hanged as part of the drying phase which typically runs anywhere from 7 to 10 days. Stems are then painstakingly removed before a final round of curing at which point the resulting cannabis flower is cleared for trimming, sorting and processing for sale. Again, this is a simplified overview of Monterey Kush Co’s process but it allows us a unique window into a brand noted for consistent quality.
Monterey Kush Co. is currently growing some of our favorite cannabis flower in a 500,000 square foot facility with state-of-the-art environmental controls that allow them to perfect their quality each step of the way. Interested in bringing consistently high quality bud to your dispensary with equally consistent distribution? Then contact your Seed 2 Soul rep today and ask them about Monterey Kush Co. cannabis flower!
]]>Trichomes in cannabis plants function primarily as a line of defense, secreting oils that keep pests at bay while creating a shield against atmospheric extremes and fungal infections. They can even protect a plant from sun damage! But if your interest in cannabis extends beyond cultivation, you’ll be interested to know that trichomes are largely responsible for the plant’s distinctive psychoactive effects. Because of this, the phases of trichome maturity are often the primary indicator in determining a plant’s harvest time.
There are regular cannabis users who have likely never taken the time to notice the frosty dusting of micro resin bulbs saturating the surface of their bud and even fewer who have the equipment necessary to really get a good look at trichomes in all their otherworldly glory. Some trichomes, while still being quite tiny, can be admired without any special equipment. Others require a jeweler's loupe to get a defined look. But to really see a crystal clear image of the diminutive trichomes that populate your bud, you’ll need more powerful equipment like a microscope. At least this is the case with glandular trichomes, but now we’re getting ahead of ourselves. Let’s take a moment to look at the different types of cannabis trichomes.
One person may tell you that you’ll find two types of trichomes on weed while the next may tell you three. Actually, they’re both correct without giving you the full story. First, let’s go with the idea that there are two types of trichomes found in the cannabis plant. In this case, glandular and non-glandular trichomes are being referenced. Each of these trichomes has specific responsibilities that they maintain for their cannabis plant.
Serving as the first line of defense for your plant, non-glandular trichomes not only fend off hungry insects and pests, damaging ultraviolet sun rays, and infectious mold, but also help your cannabis to preserve its hydration. You’re most likely to find non-glandular trichomes on cannabis leaves and stems, though they do make it to the buds to some degree. Their size and composition can classify them as unicellular, multicellular and even larger cystolythic trichomes, but this isn’t likely the “three” trichomes so popularly referenced. We’ll get to those in a second.
Most cannabis enthusiasts outside of the cultivation field are far more interested in glandular trichomes. As the manufacturing and storage centers for the plant’s resin, glandular trichomes are responsible for the terpene profiles of a cultivar as well as the cannabinoids that give the plant its wealth of purported health benefits and its psychoactive effects. You’ll never find unicellular glandular trichomes which shouldn’t be too surprising given their complex attributes. You’ll also only find them growing on female cannabis plants. Glandular trichomes can be further classified into three categories where the idea that there are three types of trichomes originates. If someone tells you there are three kinds of cannabis trichomes, they’re almost certainly talking about the three categories of glandular trichomes. Let’s take a closer look at them.
Cannabis trichomes grow and develop with the plant and are actually an important indicator of the prime harvest time. More specifically, you’ll be looking for the coloration of the spherical heads atop the capitate-stalked glandular trichomes as your indicator. As the cannabis trichomes produce resin rich in THC, these orb-like heads will have a clear appearance. However, as the plant matures, the trichomes begin to degrade resulting in the resin taking on an amber hue. Here’s where the cultivator’s balancing act comes into play. Harvesting while the trichomes are all still clear risks stunting the full blooming of the THC while allowing too many trichomes to darken into amber coloration risks the bounty of THC being handicapped by degradation. Therefore, the first signs of amber trichome coloration are recommended as the perfect time for harvesting since THC production has achieved its zenith and degradation hasn’t had time to noticeably compromise the flower.
Cannabis trichomes may be so small that they've escaped your notice, but we definitely think you’d miss them if they weren’t there… especially those capitate-stalked trichomes, right? At Seed 2 Soul, we’re forever grateful to trichomes, not just for what they do for us but also what they do for our favorite plant.
]]>CBD edibles, as is the case with any cannabis edibles, can take a while to reach full impact. Some people report effects as early on as 30 minutes after ingestion, others don’t hit that zenith until a couple hours later. That being said, a few people on our team have felt stirrings just a few minutes after having the THC-based Green Hornet Gummies and Cheeba Chews and, since CBD doesn’t induce psychoactive effects, it’s difficult at times to gauge when CBD edibles are actually hitting us. But what we lose with edibles in quick response time we gain in longevity. In some cases, CBD infused edibles can even last up to 4 hours longer than CBD consumed by other methods! For anyone taking CBD to relieve anxiety or pain, the lengthy effects of CBD edibles are obviously a major benefit.
If you have a Magical Butter Machine, Ardent Nova, or any of the number of home infusers on the market, DIY CBD edibles can be a relatively simple process. But even if you aren’t using an infuser, you can easily purchase CBD oils, extracts and other CBD products that can be substituted into an army of recipes. However, you may wish to use CBD flower in your recipes as opposed to isolated CBD so you won’t lose out on the entourage effect; the unique benefits one can experience when CBD interacts with other compounds in the cannabis plant, such as specific terpenes. However, an intrinsic benefit of using isolated CBD in your recipes is its accuracy in dosing.
When it comes to risks we take in life, using CBD in any form is admittedly pretty low on the list. But when it comes to smoking or vaping CBD, we’d be remiss if we claimed there was no potential risk whatsoever. This has nothing to do with the CBD itself and everything to do with smoking and vaping. We already know that there’s a significant risk to smoking but research is still being gathered on the long-term effects of vaping. However, it’s widely believed that vaping is significantly less harmful than smoking. While the jury’s still out on what sort of hazardous chemicals one may or may not be ingesting through vaping oil, you can bypass the entire mess by eating your CBD instead. Your throat and lungs will thank you! And that’s just one more reason why we see Green Hornet gummies and Cheeba Chews CBD varieties flying off the shelves so consistently.
Even the veterans among us have overdone it now and then. You know the feeling; Sunday afternoon with not a single responsibility in sight so you figure “Why not get absolutely faded?” And 10 minutes later, the in-laws call saying they’re in the neighborhood so they may as well drop in and say hi. Now, we know some in laws out there are more likely to ask you to pass the rig than object, but we can’t all be so lucky. Fortunately, for the circumstances where we bite off more THC than we can chew, we can level things out a bit with CBD edibles. Finding support in a 2013 study, it is widely indicated that ingesting CBD can reduce the psychoactive effects of THC to some degree, perhaps not completely grounding you but anchoring you to a more comfortable height. For this reason, you may want to invest in our Trifecta packs of Green Hornet gummies or at least keep some Cheeba Chews CBD close at hand.
Dosing CBD may not initially seem as vital as getting a THC dose right, but if you take too little CBD, you may not end up getting the relief you need. Dosing CBD edibles is far more reliable in accuracy than vaping it or smoking it. If you look at our Cheeba Chews CBD bites, you’ll see they’re measured out in precisely dosed squares for your convenience. This means you’ll never have to worry about taking too much and wasting it or taking too little and not getting the intended benefits.
While there is a certain style and chic aesthetic that comes from taking a well-timed puff off a sleek, sophisticated vape pen, it’s not always the vibe we’re trying to put out there. For those times when discretion is paramount, CBD infused edibles can really come in handy. Many CBD edibles come in bite sized pieces with precisely measured doses. For example, both Green Hornet gummies and Cheeba Chews CBD squares come in 10mg doses that you can discreetly eat pretty much anywhere without getting any glances. For those unversed on the purported benefits of CBD, research and anecdotal evidence have shown it to work as a potent anti-inflammatory and it has been used to treat anxiety, certain forms of epilepsy, and even as a sleep aid (though other users have cautioned that the right dose of CBD can actually perk someone up rather than help them sleep). Of course, much like THC, its effects can vary from person to person and much more research is needed to clarify the benefits and efficacy of the popular cannabis compound. But when we look at the continued popularity of Cheeba Chews CBD and Green Hornet CBD Gummies, we tend to believe the hype.
]]>Derived from two much lauded strains, Girl Scout Cookies and Chemdawg, Garlic Cookies is not a cultivar for beginners unless they like doing a cannonball into the deep end. You can expect somewhere around 30% THC from Garlic Cookies with the most potent offerings topping off at 32%. For such a heavy strain, Garlic Cookies is visually light, distinguished by pale green nugget puffs contrasted by deep purple definition and earthy orange pistils. While technically a hybrid, this powerful cultivar has a 90/10 split in favor of indica so, with such high THC levels, you can expect a freight train of body-numbing psychoactive effects. Of course, that’s a huge part of the appeal of Garlic Cookies!
While you may be expecting a swift punch in the mouth from the Garlic Cookies flavor, the strain’s most direct impact is squarely aimed at your nose. To say there’s a lot going on in the aroma of this strain is an understatement. A solid whiff of Garlic Cookies produces strong notes of milky vanilla, dirty diesel and enough garlic fragrance to make an Italian grandmother think the cook is overdoing it. None of these smells is offensive on its own, but when blended together, the resulting stench would peel the paint off the walls of a high school locker room. Imagine the stankest feet stomping through vanilla cupcakes and you’ve not only discovered a new fetish but also the unmistakable odor of Garlic Cookies. But it may surprise you to know that purveyors of the putrid strain (and there are plenty of them) wouldn’t have the stink any other way.
A Surprising Taste Sensation Fortunately, the flavor of the Garlic Cookies strain is nowhere near as foul as its smell. In fact, it’s actually one of the most pleasant aspects of the celebrated cultivar, though it can initially be a challenge to wrap your head around. That silky, milky vanilla creaminess of its Girl Scout Cookies sire is immediately evident in the thick cloud, though there’s a constant undercurrent of petrol-packed garlic. That strangely delectable diesel flavor intensifies significantly on the exhale without completely eclipsing the mellow vanilla sweetness. It may sound like a rough combination but peanut butter and jelly probably got a similar welcoming reception.
The psychoactive effects of Garlic Cookies are similar to those that made its parent strain, Girl Scout Cookies, such a darling of cannabis connoisseurs. With a heady introduction that grips you almost immediately following that first puff, Garlic Cookies starts you out on a distinctly euphoric foot. But as you’re feeling that instant enlightenment, you may not notice a gradual body high from all that indica taking its hold. One moment, you’re at one with the universe; the next, you’re at one with your couch. Despite its almost instantaneous results, Garlic Cookies’ high has some real longevity to it. It’s an ideal strain for chasing away the blues or any feelings of pain and also serves as a potent sleep aid thanks to that long-lasting body high. Anxiety seems to melt in the face of Garlic Cookies along with a slew of other ailments including headaches, nausea and general inflammation. Of course, 30%+ THC will do that.
We almost always have some form or another of Garlic Cookies available at Seed 2 Soul, so if you want to bring the funk and the noise (or, in this case, the loud), reach out to one of our sales reps and they’ll be happy to help you give your customers some garlic breath!
]]>This year’s Monument Fire has already impacted hundreds of cannabis grow sites to varying degrees and we’re just entering a fire season predicted to last through December. With a drought further exacerbating the situation, much of California is a powderkeg just waiting for a stray spark. It wasn’t always like this, but the situation has been steadily progressing for decades. A booming logging industry that depleted parts of the Emerald Triangle even before the first cannabis plants took root contributed to loose dirt draining down into rivers and creeks, disrupting their natural flow. Today, many of these waterways are arid ghosts. The region hasn’t seen serious rainfall since March and probably has another solid couple months of dry heat before any relief can be expected. In an area which used to pull 90 inches of annual rainfall, the last couple of years have averaged only around 30 inches. And with the autumn showers seeming impossibly far away, growing cannabis has never felt more stressful.
There are several ways cannabis products can be damaged or outright destroyed by wildfire conditions, even if they manage to dodge the all-consuming blaze itself. Ash raining down on cannabis crops can contaminate the flower with heavy metals like lead and corrosive chemicals. Some growers attempt to manually wash or blow away the ash and debris, but most of this contaminated cannabis is too damaged to sell, even if it passes the mandatory lab testing. Emergency deployment of fire retardant chemicals douses crops, ultimately ruining them. Some farmers, laughing through the pain of growing cannabis in the flame-ravaged region, refer to these casualties of the fire season as “campfire kush.” The lucky few are able to take their campfire kush and extract concentrates from the bud, selling the oil in bulk at a heavily discounted price.. But even farmers growing cannabis relatively far away from the site of the wildfires can experience reduced yields and diminished quality as smoke blankets most of the California sky, blocking the sunlight so crucial to outdoor growing.
Though we’re putting the emphasis on the cannabis products in this blog, there’s also the very real threat of fire to wildlife, livestock, domesticated animals, and humans… a cost high enough to send many farmworkers away from the unparalleled bounties of the Emerald Triangle. Many are forced to evacuate their grows as firestorms consume anything in their path. Others abandon the lifestyle willingly, too weary of taking up the fight year after year with the odds always seeming to be in the fire’s favor. Even those lucky enough to make it out with life and limb have post-apocalyptic tales of marauding bands of looters travelling with the fires to raid abandoned sites for crops and cash alike.As a preventative measure, larger farms will often employ private security teams to move assets offsite in armored vehicles. But even then, navigating the exceedingly dry and often steep terrain surrounding these compounds can take hours in dangerous conditions and everything can be gone in mere minutes.
It can be easy to feel defenselves when you’re growing cannabis in the face of primal destruction, but some farmers take precautions as much as the situation will allow. Cultivators have found some success in covering their crops to shield from metal-laden ash, maintaining large reserves of stored water, or moving in synthetic lights to make up for the lack of sunshine during smoke cover. But when the fire gets close enough in proximity, these precautions don’t matter much. Some farms invest in their own personal fire fighting equipment including private fire engines, pumps and backup generators and train workers in fire response techniques. But not every farm can afford these safeguards. In a region where fire is a terrifying part of life, fire departments are often forced to find the brunt of their numbers in unsalaried volunteers, the departments themselves sustained on charitable contributions and grants. It’s one of those situations where any government assistance would be appreciated, but a vastly out-of-touch federal scheduling of cannabis has made those chances slimmer than slim.
California’s Governor Gavin Newsom managed to secure a Presidential Major Disaster Declaration for this year’s already well underway fire season, meaning additional federal resources will be devoted to fighting the fires in portions of the Emerald Triangle impacted by this August’s wildfires. In this way, the cannabis farms are indirectly protected from the ravaging flames. Earlier in the summer, Newsom also requested Californians to reduce their water consumption by 15%, but this hasn’t done much to help the overwhelming drought conditions. Unfortunately, this is most likely all that those growing cannabis can hope to expect along the lines of government intervention. For precedent, we need only look at the way the cannabis farmers were treated during the pandemic: deemed essential workers on one hand but automatically rejected from most pandemic relief programs. The Paycheck Protection Program and loans from the CARE Act are just a couple of examples of doors that remained closed to cannabis cultivators.
In a state renowned for its wineries and produce, cannabis farms obviously aren’t the only growsites at risk during the fire season. However, the federally illegal status of cannabis products strips cannabusinesses of federal protections that insulate those other industries from the wildfires that begin to ravage the land at the end of every summer. A lot of cannabis farms are living paycheck-to-paycheck in a sense… it’s just that their paycheck comes but once a year. Growing cannabis can be lucrative, but there’s a steep price of admission and farmers rely on their big harvest-time sales to gather a year’s worth of revenue vital to purchasing the permits and licenses for the next year’s crop. As if losing a full year’s wages to a wildfire isn’t bad enough, the buy-in for next year’s crop also goes up in smoke for these cultivators. Typically, this is the kind of circumstance that can be at least partially covered by insurance. But the federal stance on cannabis continues to keep farmers barred from insurance coverage, much like the banking system that rejects them. Hemp farmers get slightly more of a break in the wake of 2018’s Farm Bill, but even they are met with lofty premiums… so lofty that only 5% of America’s hemp crops are insured.
Therefore, when cannabis farmers decide to face the flames, they’re often relying on the community more than the government. Sometimes, other businesses benefiting from the cannabis industry lend vehicles to help evacuate crops since the usual tracking systems are out the window in times of crisis. But even those outside of the cannabis industry can help farmers facing uncertainty in the face of the fire season. The Origins Council, a non-profit advocacy group, has set up a donations page to collect charitable contributions for farmers impacted by California’s wildfire season. We’ve heard it said that you should devote 10% of your effort considering a problem and 90% considering solutions, so it feels backwards that we just spent nearly 100% of this blog discussing what appears to be an insurmountable problem. We don’t even know where to begin with a solution. But we can end by pointing out one slightly reassuring detail. For all the workers that cut and run during their first fire season (and we honestly don’t blame them), there are more veteran farmers of the Emerald Triangle that stay firmly planted. They’ve no doubt thought about these problems and potential solutions exhaustively and have decided, with their entire lives on the line, that there’s still a reason to hope.
]]>Like the sex work industry, the cannabis industry has also had a shaky reputation with big banks. From the beginning, the cannabis industry has had to circumvent traditional payment processors due to federal legality status. Why are we seeing such movement towards these forms of financial censorship in such fast-growing and highly profitable industries that service consenting adults?
OnlyFans' decision to attribute the change to payment companies in its policy reflects how the financial sector is turning the tide against sites that have adult content sharing. With OnlyFans only being the latest victim, Pornhub and YouTube were also cut off from payment processor services Mastercard, Visa, and Discover for sexually explicit content, including from children and non-consenting adults. Both sides tried to repair the damage by removing content from unsolicited accounts and promising to hire more moderators. Mastercard and Visa have since then restored their services to the sites.
Payment processor services are opaque and costly and these types of web platforms, such as adult sites, are struggling to strengthen the financial chain. Moreover, the problem faced by individual sex workers is that when banks and payment processors ban them, there is little recourse to non-gender transactions. The turnaround underscores the need for creators to diversify and remain present on multiple platforms. It would be difficult for them to leave the platforms on which they have built their fan base, especially if they face the additional challenge of selling adult content. If OnlyFans decides to serve adult content and the creators retain their mainstream status, it could win this round, but the banks hold a lot of cards.
Accepting credit cards may sound tempting, but it is not the safest option for financial institutions until federal legislation provides clarity and protection for card payment services. Payment providers offering credit card payment solutions to cannabis companies that do not comply with federal law could face financial or criminal penalties. From fines to hiding money in escrow accounts to active legal proceedings, including criminal proceedings, there are potential problems with the use of credit cards in the cannabis space.
However, there is light at the end of this tunnel with the Cannabis SAFE Banking Act. This act aims to allow financial institutions to invest and implement payment processor solutions to the cannabis industry without the fear of being prosecuted on a federal level. If passed, more banks and financial institutions will feel comfortable offering additional banking services to the cannabis industry. However, until cannabis is legal and removed as a Class 1 drug, major banks and credit card companies will continue to ban transactions with cannabis. These requirements could apply to cannabis companies as the industry is not supported by domestic banks and processors.
While many retail service providers support high-risk industries, not all are willing to accommodate cannabis distribution customers. Many of the problems associated with processing cannabis credit cards have to do with the fact that, while some marijuana-related companies have legitimate bank accounts (many do not for the reasons described below), the money they get from processing services goes elsewhere. When a customer buys something from a seller with a debit or credit card, the money is sent to a digital processor that finds its way into the seller's bank account. The simple reality is that most cannabis companies that can accept cards and other forms of digital payments will find some kind of loophole and some organizations that process cannabis credit cards do not even know they offer services to marijuana organizations.
Now that you are familiar with some of the most popular payment options for cannabis in the marijuana industry, it is time to discuss credit and debit card transactions that are not traditionally handled by cannabis dealers. As we mentioned earlier, it should be obvious that marijuana companies have no problem accepting credit or debit card payments. In short, because cannabis is still illegal at the federal level, credit card companies such as American Express, Visa, and Mastercard as well as financial institutions like Bank of America and Wells Fargo will not work to manage money for cannabis businesses including medical marijuana dispensaries. The fact that cannabis is illegal at the federal level is also the reason why banks will not offer business loans to anyone who wants to establish a cannabis dispensary.
In addition, large financial institutions and other small payment processors and payment platforms that serve cannabis businesses classify businesses in the marijuana industry as high-risk businesses, resulting in cannabis dealer accounts becoming more expensive, even if one is able to do one. The illegal status of cannabis also means that firms in this industry are not eligible for the type of deductions some companies enjoy. Things are getting better but the introduction of credit card processing is still a ground-breaking development. While we’re seeing a societal shift where the cannabis industry and sex work industry are becoming less taboo, there is still a long road ahead before we see widespread acceptance with the financial sector. Huge strides have been made with the Cannabis SAFE Banking Act and, with the various wins that adult entertainment has had against big banks, most recently OnlyFans, it’s safe to assume that we’re moving in the right direction.
]]>Alpha-humulene is great terpene to start with because you are likely already familiar with it. It’s found in abundance in hops, a principal ingredient of beer, especially IPA’s. In fact, its name is derived from the Latin name for brewing hops, Humulus Lupulus, and has a distinctive hoppy, woody and earthy aroma. It’s also found in sage, ginseng and ginger, and like many of the terpenes on this list, has proven anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Additionally, alpha-humulene is also an appetite suppressant which makes it useful as a weight loss aid, or simply fighting off the munchies. A common strain that contains a lot of this terpene is Jack Herer. LIMONENE As the name may suggest this terpene has a strong citrus aroma and is mostly found in citrus fruits like limes, lemons and oranges, especially in the rind. Check out a strain like Lemon Haze to experience that fresh citrus burst. Medicinally limonene has both anti-anxiety and antidepressant properties, and historically has been used as a home remedy for both acne and Athletes’ Foot.
This terpene is what gives pine trees their signature aroma. Found in large quantities in conifer trees, rosemary and turpentine trees, alpha-pinene is a natural insecticide that protects plants from parasites and also has antibacterial properties. Additionally, it’s a bronchodilator which means it is effective at opening the airways in the lungs making it useful for asthma sufferers. And its medical benefits don’t stop there! Alpha-pinene has also been shown to be a memory enhancer which looks like it could be a promising dementia treatment in the future. As for a common strain with high amounts of Alpha Pinene, look no further than White Widow.
Found predominantly in thyme, parsley and bay leaf, myrcene has a strong peppery, spicy and herbal scent. It’s known in medicine as an analgesic (aka a pain killer), and it’s also a powerful antioxidant which is beneficial to general health and wellbeing. Furthermore, myrcene is also a sedative, making strains with high amounts, like El Nino, great for evening use.
This terpene has a robust floral scent and that’s also found in lavender, birch trees and mint. Another pain killing, anti-inflammatory terpene, linalool is also a sedative with anti-anxiety effects. Check out a strain like Superbud for those floral notes. Interestingly, linalool has also been shown to be an anticonvulsant which works in much the same way as Diazepam to treat nausea.
Beta-caryophyllene is responsible for the unmistakable scent of cloves and black pepper. It also has a spicy and peppery aroma that is widely used as a main ingredient in chewing gum. The Dutch strain AMS is a great example of a flower with high amounts of this terpene. Both a painkiller and anti-inflammatory, beta caryophyllene’s medical benefits don’t stop there. It’s also an antioxidant and gastric-protective making it great digestive aid.
Terpinolene is another terpene whose aroma is probably familiar to you. It’s the primary ingredient in turpentine, and has that signature piney, herbal and floral scent. Conifer trees are the main source for terpinolene, but it’s also found in nutmeg, cumin and tea tree. Medicinally it has antibacterial, antioxidant and sedating effects, and Agent Orange is a strain that contains a high quantity of this terp.
A uniquely scented terpene that’s sweet, tropical and musky, Ocimene is found in tropical fruits like mango and kumquat and a sought-after aroma in hops for beers like juicy IPAs. As with many of the terpenes on this list, ocimene is an anti-inflammatory. What’s more interesting is its antifungal and antiviral properties which have made it an effective treatment for the SARS virus. Arjan’s Haze #3 is a good example of a strain packed with ocimene’s musky, tropical aroma.
With a camphor like scent, eucalyptol is yet another terpene that you are more than likely familiar with. As it ‘s name suggests, it’s the terpene responsible for the aroma of eucalyptus and also tea tree. Yet another terpene with anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, eucalyptol has been used for millennia as a decongestant. Not to mention, it’s an effective treatment for asthma. Most interestingly though is that it’s an inhibitor of senile plaques that play a pivotal role in the progression of Alzheimer’s Disease. This terpene shows great promise as a future treatment for the disease. Want to protect your brain? Look no further than Super Silver Haze, a strain loaded with eucalyptol.
The terpene responsible for the scent of roses and geraniums, geraniol has a strong floral character. Try a strain like Afghani to experience this terp’s perfume-like quality. Its medical benefits include the customary pain relief, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects common to many terpenes, but it’s also an antifungal that also makes for an effective mosquito repellent. Used widely in bath and body products due to its perfume like scent, geraniol is also used in topical drugs because it aids absorption through the skin.
There you have it, the top ten most common terpenes found in cannabis. Now you can use your nose to seek out the strains that will give you the most relief. Enjoy!
]]>Bubble hash is a new form of hashish, and like tradicional hash it's a concentrated form of cannabis. Bubble hash is made with the use of the ice water extraction technique, which involves submerging cannabis flower in ice cold water, and then agitating it to release its resins. These cannabis resins, or “trichomes” are collected with the use of fine filter meshes, and then dried to produce some of the highest quality hash imaginable.
But what’s the difference between bubble hash and regular hash? Traditionally hashish is made by dry-sifting cannabis flowers. This involves tossing buds around over a mesh screen, and collecting dry trichomes into a powder which is pressed into blocks. It's a tried and true technique which can be used to produce some quality hash. However, due to the large amount of impurities and plant materials that tend to be collected in traditional hash making, there’s a limit to the outright quality that can be produced. Bubble hash, on the other hand, takes the concept much further with a laboratory grade approach.
One of the greatest strengths of bubble hash is its potency and purity. Thanks to the level of refinement of the technique, very little if any green plant materials are collected along with the trichomes, and this results in a purer hashish than would otherwise be possible. Furthermore, bubble hash itself can come in a range of qualities, and is further graded with a five star quality system.
The real key to top level bubble hash is the use of micron filter bags. In fact, ice water extraction makes use of multiple filter bags with differing mesh sizes. This allows the cannabis trichomes to be further graded, meaning hash makers can cream off the very best trichomes to create a hashish of unparalleled purity and strength.
Both “bubble hash” and “solventless rosin” are cannabis concentrates and you’ll frequently hear the terms paired together. This is because more often than not, rosin is actually made from bubble hash. In fact, rosin made from high grade bubble hash tends to be next level itself, and creates a much more potent and pure concentrate than when it’s made from cannabis buds. So, hopefully that clears up any misunderstandings you were having about bubble hash, and be sure to join us in the future for more cannabis fundamentals.
]]>Cheeba Chews (not to mention Green Hornet cannabis gummies) are designed with the intent of easy dosage measurement. In the days of DIY cannabis edibles (not to say those days are completely behind us), there was an element of chance to a pan of pot brownies. Even if the cannabis was evenly distributed throughout the mix, it was tough to gauge the potency of the finished batch until it was already in our systems. And for some of us, that was too late. We were already on the Gravitron with no way off. But with Cheeba Chews, we’ve got the formula down to a science. You know for sure that each square packs 10mg of THC… no more, no less. Now, some of you may be afraid 10mg is still too much for your tolerance but when you start breaking down the individual 10mg squares, the actual mg count gets a bit more difficult to measure with confident accuracy. For those people, we’d recommend the Cheeba Chews wellness option which allows you to easily microdose in pre-portioned 5mg increments. Green Hornet also just released their trifecta gummy cannabis edibles that each contain 10mg THC, 10mg CBD and 10mg CBG for a more balanced effect.
We recommend starting low and working your way up in 10mg increments. In our experience, even heavy cannabis users can feel a solid psychoactive impact with just 2 pieces of 10mg Cheeba Chews squares, especially if they’re unversed in how edibles work with their personal body chemistry. It can be tempting to underestimate these doses, especially since the measurements are so clearly defined, but keep in mind that cannabis edibles affect the body differently than when THC is smoked or vaped. The activation takes significantly longer but the effects typically sustain for a longer period of time as well. And most people will tell you it’s a different experience altogether. With Cheeba Chews available in indica, sativa and hybrid varieties, the type you choose can also impact your psychoactive response.
In very rare circumstances, we’ve been contacted by customers who popped several 10mg Cheeba Chews pieces over a period of an hour or two but only felt the slightest effects. If you find yourself in this situation, we recommend reviewing what you’ve eaten prior to having your Cheeba Chews. There’s not one solution that works for everyone in this circumstance, but we’ve seen stronger effects when Cheeba Chews are consumed on an empty stomach. We’ve also heard that some users felt stronger effects from eating a snack heavy in fats (think peanut butter, olive oil, etc.) about 45 minutes prior to eating their Cheeba Chews. Again, most people can enjoy Cheeba Chews without needing to strategize, but if you’re not having as strong of an experience as you’d expect from cannabis edibles, experimenting with the conditions in which you’re consuming them can be rewarding.
Whether you’re looking to become one with your couch or want an easily measurable microdose, Cheeba Chews can be your perfect introduction to cannabis edibles. But a miscalculated introduction to edibles can be enough to scare away even heavy cannabis users. Starting low and building as you go will help you to have the kind of experience that’s made Cheeba Chews such a renowned brand in the cannabis community. Chews wisely!
]]>VeChain is a kind of blockchain platform designed to streamline logistics and processes for companies. The program is built with specific protocols to incorporate inventory management. VeChain's blockchain is prominently applicable to a variety of industries, especially those with perishable goods. One industry with heavy ties to the blockchain is the cannabis industry. Blockchain technology has been implemented in a number of functions within the ecosystem of this rapidly growing market. From Crypto ATMs popping up in dispensaries to transactions being made over the blockchain ledger, cannabis and cryptocurrency seem to grow further intertwined. Blockchain technology provides cannabis consumers with additional security, keeps the industry to agreed standards, and provides an expanded window into product history, including cultivation, harvesting, processing, and logistics.
VeChain is a blockchain platform that is particularly promising for the cannabis industry. This is a kind of blockchain platform to improve logistics processes and services. Because VeChain offers the benefits of blockchain technology, it focuses on making global product distribution more reliable. An example of a practical application of VeChain is their "seed tracking" protocol. While this tool is not solely used in just the cannabis space it’s application in the industry can be used to verify the strain, the day it was harvested, when it was packaged, and so much more information. Products can be tracked and verified by farmers and laboratories from seed to harvest. This is a substantially better system order to prove the authenticity of products, and can help to combat the growing issue of counterfeit products entering dispensaries. A growing trend among consumers in the cannabis industry is the want for verified products. While some cannabis directories like Weedmaps have integrated a verification system, it is solely based on producers and shops filling out forms validating their products with little to no confirmation. The cannabis industry is in dire need of a system where product information, batch numbers, and testing results can be viewed on one trusted platform. This is where VeChain can really change the way consumers are able to shop for their cannabis.
Lab testing presents a further issue with verification in the cannabis industry. In late 2018, the California Bureau of Cannabis found a myriad of tainted products ranging from molded flower to cartridges with significant traces of heavy metals, mycotoxins, and vitamin E acetate throughout the state's legal cannabis market. From their investigation, it appeared that all of these products were tested but results were manipulated in order to allow for their release. While many of these testing facilities faced little to no penalties as the bureau could only trace results so far back, California made substantial changes to their testing procedures. Since then California has enforced strict guidelines on the acceptable levels of contaminants in cannabis products. There are still many flaws with the way the data is recorded as well as an ongoing discussion of the true acceptable levels of contaminants. This is a looming issue that implementing VeChain technologies can help to resolve.
Forcing producers, testers, and shops to record products through VeChain seed tracking will go a long way to ensure authentic and safe products reach the market while also keeping all parties accountable. While VeChain’s applications far outgrow just the cannabis industry, its applications with Cannabis are very promising especially in the sense of creating a well regulated, verified, and ultimately safer legal market. As cryptocurrency and blockchain technologies continue to be more universally adopted, transactions will forever change.
