Hawaii's new law, HB 1482, requires hemp product distributors and retailers to register with the state Department of Health (DOH) and limits the sale of hemp-derived tinctures to consumers 21 and older, effective January 1, 2026. The DOH will have authority to inspect and seize hemp-derived products, and the law clarifies that unlawful hemp activity falls under unfair competition and nuisance abatement laws. The Office of Medical Cannabis Control and Regulation will oversee a hemp processors program, funded by a state Hemp Processing Special Fund. Additionally, Governor Green signed a bill expanding medical marijuana access, allowing primary treating medical providers to recommend marijuana for any malady and permitting telehealth visits for recommendations. Another signed bill allows medical marijuana caregivers to grow for up to five patients, and a bill to expedite expungement of past marijuana-related offenses was also signed into law. Separately, a proposal to increase the decriminalized amount of cannabis from 3 grams to 15 grams was narrowly defeated in the Senate, and a bill to legalize marijuana for adults stalled in committee. < Back Hawaii Governor Signs Hemp Registration Requirements for Distributors and Retailers Jul 9, 2025 Source: Ben Adlin Marijuana Moment Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link Big things are happening in Hawaii, and for the most part, it is looking like a win for the cannabis community. Governor Green just signed off on a package of bills that seriously levels up medical access. The highlight? Doctors can now recommend medical marijuana for any condition they deem necessary, moving past those restrictive and outdated lists of qualifying ailments. Toss in the green light for telehealth visits and allowing caregivers to grow for five patients instead of just one, and you have got a system that actually prioritizes the patient experience and accessibility. There is a bit of a trade-off, though. New rules require hemp businesses to register with the state, and the Department of Health gets more eyes on patient records, which feels a bit invasive for some. While full adult-use legalization remains stalled, the move to speed up expungements for past offenses shows the state is finally getting real about social justice. For everyday tokers, this matters because it simplifies getting legal, safe access and starts cleaning up the legal mess left behind by prohibition. It is not perfect, but it is solid progress. < Previous Next > Recent Reviews Bomb Popz Infused Pre-Roll - Fade Co.

Hosted in collaboration with Big Cloud Presents — a production company known for pioneering some of the Midwest’s most inspired and unforgettable events — the Cup unfolds at the boutique Stargazer Cannabis Festival (July 25–27), an immersive three-day celebration of cannabis culture, creativity, and community.

The Stargazer Cup unfolds live over the course of the weekend in what organizers describe as a “cannonball-style” competition — fast, immersive, and judged entirely on-site. Unlike traditional cups that stretch on for weeks behind closed doors, this one happens in real time, with transparency, energy, and audience buzz. To ensure integrity and diverse perspectives, Stargazer recently conducted a lottery-style drawing to select community judges — each of whom will receive $1,000 and free festival access to help determine the winners across multiple categories. “The Stargazer Cup was built to bring the competition back to the people,” said Chad Thompson, organizer and Communications Director for Stargazer Cannabis Festival. “We’re proud to be offering a cash prize this big — but even more proud that the winners will be chosen by real, everyday cannabis enthusiasts in front of a live audience. We wanted to make this very accessible to everyone, so it is only $50 to enter your sample. All growers should enter.” Big Cloud Presents is helping take Stargazer to the next level. “We knew right away this was something special,” said a representative for Big Cloud. “Stargazer isn’t just another cannabis festival — it’s a creative force. We’re thrilled to help make this Cup a landmark moment for the culture.” The competition is open to growers, extract artists, and edible makers from across the U.S., with the top performer walking away not just with cash, but with bragging rights as the Cup champion at one of the most talked-about cannabis events in the country. Space is limited and entries are open now. About Stargazer Cannabis Festival Stargazer is a boutique cannabis festival held on 70 wooded acres in Waverly, Ohio.

*DOJ moves to dismiss marijuana & guns case; Lawmakers push against hemp criminalization; MI cannabis tax increase; Study: CBD & anxiety* < Back Trump Shares Video Highlighting Medical Cannabis Benefits for Seniors Sep 29, 2025 Source: Tom Angell Marijuana Moment Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link The cannabis world is buzzing with some heavy-hitting updates this week. In a surprising move, President Trump shared a video backing medical cannabis for seniors, even suggesting Medicare should cover CBD to help cut healthcare costs. On the legal front, the DOJ is stepping back from a case involving marijuana users and gun ownership, signaling a potential shift as the Supreme Court prepares to weigh in. Meanwhile, a bipartisan group in Congress is fighting to protect the hemp industry from being recriminalized, which is a huge relief for farmers and fans of hemp-derived THC. In the science corner, a new study shows CBD can significantly drop anxiety levels in just one week. This mix of political support and legal leniency is a massive win for the community. When a sitting president talks about Medicare covering CBD and the DOJ pauses gun-related prosecutions for tokers, it shows we’re finally moving past the era of "Reefer Madness." For regular users, this means better legal protections and potentially cheaper access to therapeutic products through official channels. < Previous Next > Recent Reviews Bomb Popz Infused Pre-Roll - Fade Co.

New York-based Cannabis Public Policy Consulting LLC was awarded a $238,700 contract to study Missouri's marijuana market for the next year. The study aims to determine if and when the state needs to issue additional cannabis facility licenses, and to provide information on the economic stability of the regulated market, including its impact on economically distressed areas. Missouri's cannabis market has been successful, with $1.46 billion in sales in 2024, partly due to limiting the number of licenses. The study will also help create a plan to promote ownership and employment in the marijuana industry for people from economically distressed areas. < Back Missouri Awards Contract for Cannabis Market Study to Guide New Licenses Jul 2, 2025 Source: Marijuana Moment Marijuana Moment Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link Missouri is often called the blueprint for a successful cannabis rollout, and now the state is doubling down on that reputation. Officials recently tapped Cannabis Public Policy Consulting for a $238,700 deep dive into the local market. This year-long study isn't just about crunching numbers; it’s designed to help regulators decide if, when, and where to drop new licenses. With over $1.4 billion in sales last year, Missouri is outperforming many veteran legal states, but critics argue the current limited-license model feels a bit like a monopoly. This study is a major win for the community because it specifically focuses on how to boost ownership and jobs for folks in economically distressed areas. For regular tokers, this matters because more licenses usually mean better variety, more competitive pricing, and easier access to your favorite buds. By using actual data to drive policy updates, Missouri is working to ensure the industry remains stable while finally opening doors for those historically left out of the green rush. Transitioning from a "model" market to a truly equitable one is the next big hurdle. < Previous Next > Recent Reviews Bomb Popz Infused Pre-Roll - Fade Co.

Missouri regulators will begin unannounced visits to marijuana dispensaries to test products, starting July 1. The Division of Cannabis Regulation will collect about 50 products monthly for testing, but experts are concerned about potential issues. < Back Missouri to Start Surprise Visits to Cannabis Dispensaries for Product Testing Jun 8, 2025 Source: Marijuana Moment Marijuana Moment Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link Missouri regulators are stepping up their game to ensure what’s on the label is actually in the bag. Starting July 1, the Division of Cannabis Regulation will begin making surprise visits to dispensaries to pull products directly from the shelves for independent state testing. This new initiative aims to double-check the work of private labs, scanning for mold, pesticides, and those all-too-common inflated THC percentages. While officials claim they expect smooth sailing, industry experts warn that similar "shelf testing" in other states has uncovered some pretty nasty surprises. For the everyday toker, this is a massive win for peace of mind. We all want to know that the bud we’re buying is clean and as potent as advertised, especially when one lab is handling the lion's share of the state's testing. While the sample size is small to start, it’s a major step toward real accountability and safety in the Missouri market. Knowing the state is watching helps keep the industry honest and our lungs happy. < Previous Next > Recent Reviews Bomb Popz Infused Pre-Roll - Fade Co.

Cannabis banking success depends on operational discipline, transparent cash handling, and proactive communication rather than just revenue or cash volume. Financial institutions prioritize documented procedures, consistent reconciliations, and predictable deposit schedules to mitigate regulatory and security risks. < Back Keeping Your Green in the Bank: How to Make Your Cannabis Business "Bank-Ready" with Solid Cash Controls Mar 25, 2026 Source: Stacy Litke and Zach Michael Wright MG Magazine Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link Navigating the banking world in the cannabis industry can feel like trying to find a high-quality eighth in a dry county, but it turns out the "cash-only" stigma isn't the real hurdle. Recent insights from banking veterans reveal a surprising truth: financial institutions aren't actually afraid of your cash volume. What truly scares them—and leads to those dreaded account closure calls—is a lack of operational discipline. For the average toker, this might seem like corporate mumbo-jumbo, but it’s the backbone of why your favorite local dispensary stays open. When a shop has its act together, it means they have stable access to the financial tools needed to keep the shelves stocked with your favorite cultivars. Banks are essentially looking for "bank-ready" behavior. This means having a second set of hands when counting out the day’s haul, keeping a paper trail that would make an accountant weep with joy, and ensuring that what the register says matches what’s actually in the vault. If you’re an operator or just someone curious about the industry's inner workings, the tip here is predictability. Banks love a routine. Consistent armored car pickups and daily reconciliations aren't just about security; they are a signal to the bank that the business is being run with a "healthcare provider" level of precision rather than a "basement dealer" vibe. Ultimately, this move toward transparency is a massive win for the community. It forces a higher standard of professionalism that protects everyone involved—from the staff handling the physical currency to the customers who want a reliable place to shop. The secret sauce to a long-term banking relationship isn't how much green you’re making, but how clearly you can show where every single dollar came from. So, here’s to the shops doing the hard work behind the scenes to keep our community legal, banked, and thriving.

President Trump Signs Order Directing Federal Government to Move Cannabis to Schedule III today at the White House surrounded by industry VIP's < Back President Trump Signs Order Directing Federal Government to Move Cannabis to Schedule III Dec 18, 2025 Source: Noel Abbott Ganjapreneur Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link [image: Oval Office, Donald Trump at Desk Surrounded by Doctors & Adminstration] President Donald Trump today signed an executive order directing the federal government to begin reclassifying cannabis from a Schedule I to a Schedule III controlled substance under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA), marking one of the most significant federal shifts in U.S. drug policy in decades. Since 1970, cannabis has been classified as a Schedule I substance, a category reserved for drugs considered to have *no accepted medical use* and a high potential for abuse, alongside substances such as heroin and LSD. The new order instructs the attorney general to initiate the process to move cannabis into Schedule III, a classification for substances with *moderate to low potential for dependence* that recognizes legitimate medical use, similar to drugs like ketamine and anabolic steroids. In the Oval Office ceremony, Trump said the change responds to growing public support and the medical needs of patients suffering from a variety of conditions, citing personal anecdotes he has heard from friends about their experiences with CBD and medical cannabis. He and several advisors who spoke referred to the plan as a “common sense” approach, expanding access to research and ease some business restrictions, and potentially empowering Medicare recipients to get full-spectrum CBD products free of charge with a doctor’s recommendation as soon as April 2026. The reclassification could significantly affect the legal cannabis industry by enabling companies to take federal tax deductions previously barred under Section 280E and could broaden research into cannabis-derived therapies. The executive order does not, however, offer any new assistance or pathway to expungement or clemency for the thousands of Americans still incarcerated for cannabis-related crimes: a point that President Trump had brought up in his campaign against Kamala Harris last year. *This is a developing story, please check back soon for updates.* < Previous Next > Recent Reviews Bomb Popz Infused Pre-Roll - Fade Co.

A business advisory and accounting firm has entered the cannabis industry and expanded its presence in Arizona through a new acquisition agreement. < Back Aprio Dives into the Cannabis Scene with New Arizona Acquisition May 11, 2026 Source: Staff Cannabis Business Times Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link Big news for the Arizona weed scene as a major national player just officially stepped into the green circle. Aprio, one of the country’s heavy hitters in the accounting and advisory world, has wrapped up a deal to acquire Phoenix-based Price Kong. While corporate mergers might sound like dry reading, this is a move that actually signals a more mature and stable market for everyone in the Grand Canyon State. Price Kong isn't just any local firm; they were early adopters who started helping cannabis operators find their footing over a decade ago. By bringing that specialized local knowledge into the fold of a massive organization like Aprio, Arizona’s dispensaries and cultivators now have access to serious financial firepower. This is a huge win for the community because when the folks growing and selling our favorite flower have their books in order and their taxes handled by experts, it keeps the lights on and the shelves stocked with quality products. For the regular enthusiast, this matters more than you might think. Professionalizing the "boring" side of the business—like audits and complex tax codes—helps lower the risk for local shops, which can lead to better prices and more consistent availability of the strains we love. It also means that when the next big legislative shift happens, our local favorites will have the support they need to navigate the red tape. If you are an aspiring entrepreneur looking to jump into the Arizona market, seeing a top-20 national firm dive into the sector is a great sign that the industry is being taken seriously. Our tip? Keep an eye on how these partnerships help local brands expand. More professional support usually translates to more accessible, high-quality cannabis for the everyday user. It’s all about building a community that’s as sustainable as it is elevated.
