Tempt Hempmilk is Awesome

Hemp Milk

I am shocked that I did not discover hemp milk until 2012. It was recommended by a friend who had a box of Living Harvest Tempt Hempmilk in his car. He offered me a sip and instantly I was in love (with the milk ;-). It's not just because I am lactose intolerant that this new alternative to dairy appealed to me, but the incredible taste and excellent nutrients. Hemp milk is rich in Omega 3 + 6, calcium, vitamins B12 and D to name a few. Look for hemp milk in your local grocery store or get it Here Now. -Dank

On Monday, April 2, federal agents raided the businesses and properties of Richard Lee, confiscating pounds of marijuana and personal belongings without revealing a purpose. Because Richard Lee is considered California’s most prominent advocate of marijuana’s medicinal benefits, this raid was especially significant to the medical marijuana community. Lee’s Oaksterdam University was one of the main areas federal agents focused on. Nobody was injured during the raid, but Lee and four of his employees were detained. U.S. attorney of San Francisco Melinda Haag & three of her counterparts made several efforts in Southern California late 2011 to prosecute marijuana dispensaries as profit-making criminal enterprises. Efforts are now being made to make the same actions on marijuana dispensaries in Northern California.

What's In A Name or Is Your Pot The Real Cannabis Mcoy

Columbian Gold Strain

The question "Is this the real deal?" is, more times than not, asked by many cannabis consumers. How can someone be positive if they are getting the true Skunk #1 or the actual Northern Lights that was so prevalent in the 1990's? Plain and simple you will never know. Does it really matter? Probably not. The strain may carry some distinguishable notoriety, but in the end it is just another variety and a name. Being that I myself am a small time grower/ breeder, I can safely say I feel the same about my strains. It is not the name, it is my hard work in putting together Upper Echelon type strains to improve on the already wonderful genetics that I am working with. Yes the name does carry recognition in some respects to how it grows, its' stability, its' taste, it's effects and so forth. How many times have you walked into a dispensary and what was available looked and smelled dissatisfying, but it had a well known name attached to it such as Northern Lights or Hindu Kush? Dozens of times (for me at least! :) In these new times with higher percentages of people being able to do what was once only done by folks in Amsterdam or the American underground not but a decade ago, we will have a ton of mutts & mixes to look forward to. I think this is very good for the cannabis gene pool. The biggest issue surrounding this topic is that there was never a set of standards or guidelines for tracking cannabis genetics except for the few you really cared and kept as much pure info about. In the end, it is the artists' talent that brings the crowd and it is the genetic makeup of the cannabinoid profile and its' DNA structure that makes that particular strain what it is. I love the unknown in cannabis. Now that we are getting closer to some sort of legalization, I see the gene pool exploding in the years to come.
