Marijuana legalization and support for the plant has seen an uprising in the last few years. Pennsylvania has now joined the fray by taking a giant leap further in getting their people marijuana to help treat medical conditions, as the state announced the launch of its patient and caregiver registry.

Doctors must certify patients’ illnesses before the patients can obtain an identification card from the Health Department, so having hundreds of physicians participating is a major plus.

Currently, the law permits marijuana in the form of pills, oils, vapor or liquid but not in plant form, and patients are not allowed to grow their own medicine.

But did you know that cannabis-infused lubricants (also known as lube) are also options on the market? Made with tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), these products combine the typical lube experience with the effects…
Once upon a time, the pen was mightier than the sword. These days? It’s mightier than the blunt. That’s how the humble vape pen earned its modern title of the “Penjamin.” It’s a distinguished moniker catching on among a new generation of cannabis enthusiasts. But what exactly does Penjamin mean, and is there more to…
Late last year, language banning the majority of hemp-derived THC products on the market was tucked into a spending bill signed off on by Trump. The bill passed after the longest government shutdown in history. While many people were glad to see the government return to action, many others feared for their businesses, livelihoods, and…
