CannabisNewsBreaks – Sugarmade, Inc. (SGMD) Announces 300% Growth in Budcar Delivery Volume, Eyes $15M 2020 Revenue Target

Sugarmade (OTCQB: SGMD) today announced a dramatic 300% sequential monthly jump in delivery volume in BudCars Cannabis Delivery Service in February. According to the update, the rise in volume follows the company’s negotiated agreement toward a controlling stake in Budcars and its investment in expanding the leading delivery service’s operations and reach in Northern California. Provided recent data on growth in daily orders is reliable and indicative of the impact of the company’s recent measures over coming months, management projects a Budcars top-line run-rate capable of surpassing $15 million in sales in 2020. “Some of our shareholders have suggested that our vision for a massively expanded and vertically integrated Budcars might be explained to the world as the ‘Uber Eats of the cannabis market.’ But we believe that’s actually a dramatic underestimation of where Budcars is headed,” Sugarmade CEO Jimmy Chan said in the news release. “This is far more promising from a bottom-line perspective, given that we aren’t simply delivering someone else’s product. The retailer gets the juicy 20 percent net margin in this business. We are positioning ourselves as a ‘Cannabis concierge service’ focusing on a truly unique cannabis experience.”

420 with CNW – Florida Senate Moves to Limit Medical Marijuana THC Potency

On Friday afternoon, the Florida Senate filed a proposal whose aim is to put a limit on the amount of THC available in medical marijuana products. The potency cap would be at 10%.

THC is the psychoactive compound found in marijuana. It induces the high effect. THC can be found in all forms of marijuana ranging from whole-flower, tinctures, oils, vaporizers, and edibles.

The amendment was filed by Senator Gayle Harrell (R-Stuart) and it was part of a larger health care package. The bill’s last stop is the Senate Rules Committee, and it will take up the amendment early this week.

The current law in Florida places a cap on the amount of THC in marijuana edibles only. The edibles should contain no more than 10mg of THC per serving and an overall of 200mg. According to industry experts, the current doses in edibles are higher than what most patients would consume in a normal situation.

The amendments cap on THC at 10% applies to people who are under 21years, excluding those who are terminally ill and those whose doctors recommend for medicine with a high THC concentration.

Harrell said that she is worried that young people have access to marijuana products with high THC concentration, and it could negatively affect brain development.

Limiting the amount of THC in medical marijuana was first introduced during the 2019 legislative sessions, where a House Bill that would have put a 10% cap on smokable medical marijuana or flower was proposed. The legislation would have barred doctors from certifying patients below the age of 18 for full-strength marijuana products.

The bill, which was introduced by Rep. Ray Rodrigues (R-Estero) quoted a study which indicated that marijuana containing high levels of THC was associated with early onset of psychosis and the development of schizophrenia in marijuana consumers.

Rodrigues cited a Swedish study, which was based on patients who self-reported their history of marijuana consumption and had also experienced at least one psychotic episode in their life.

The bill never advanced in the House despite the support from the Speaker Rep. Jose Oliva (R-Miami Lakes).

Last week, Senator Jeff Brandes held a press conference where he urged the House not to support a THC cap. He noted that the Senate would put a hold on the issue. Brandes expressed his disappointment on Friday, when he said that the Senate should focus on solving real problems.

Speaking to Herald Times, Brandes said that physicians understand the legislation better as well as the needs of their patients; therefore, they should be allowed to weigh in on the benefits and risks for their patients.

Harrell and Brandes have different views on the issue of the THC cap. The Senate President Bill Galvano indicated that he was open to considering the THC cap.

Those who are opposed to the amendment said that if it is approved, it will be a burden on medical marijuana prices because the prices for the products will be hiked, and this would eventually force patients to buy from the illicit market to self-medicate with higher THC marijuana products.

Colorado had raised the THC limit to 16% in 2016 via a referendum but later withdrew the proposal.

It would be interesting to hear how sector players like HTC Extraction Systems (TSX.V: HTC) (OTCQB: HTPRF) would weigh in on this debate regarding THC caps on medical marijuana products in light of the black market which still commands a huge share of total marijuana sales.

420 with CNW – Denver Study Finds Fewer Teens Opting to Consume Marijuana

Results from a new survey conducted in the City and County of Denver show that more teens are choosing not to consume marijuana. Denver believes that the improved results in teen consumption are because of the marijuana youth prevention campaign, which is based on facts.

The campaign, which is referred to as the High Costs Marijuana Youth Education and prevention, was formed to educate the youth within their state on the effects of underage consumption on their passions, pursuits, and future.

Instead of using scare tactics, the campaign is focusing on providing the youths with facts peer-to-peer so that they can engage in accurate and empowering peer-to-peer conversations. However, in the past, campaigns did not focus on education as their primary goal of drug prevention.

In the 1980s and 90s, drug prevention campaigns used scare tactics and fear. Browsing the internet for drug-related commercials that date several decades back, you will find an ad where an egg is cooking on a pan, and the narrator likens the sizzling egg to your brain on drugs.

In other commercials, the slogan ‘Just Say No’ was used to advise students to ward off peer pressure. Campaigns that targeted drug-using parents used lines that said ‘parents who use drugs, have kids who use drugs.’

The current marijuana youth prevention campaign, which was started in 2017 in Denver, is working because it has adopted a different approach to educating rather than instilling fear.

According to the Director of Communications at the Department of Excise and Licenses for the City and County of Denver Eric Escudero, the High Costs campaign has a goal of providing facts to children to prevent kids from underage consumption of marijuana.

Escudero also said that they give the kids information on issues that they care about, advice such as how marijuana consumption can affect their scholarship, getting a driver’s license, as well as their health and laws. He also noted that some kids make the decision not to use marijuana on their own.

The survey, which was conducted by Insights Lab, took place from mid-November to mid-December. The number of teens who participated in the study was 537 between the ages of 13 through 18.

  • The survey found that 56% of the respondents were familiar with the campaign.
  • Eighty-one percent of the participants between the ages of 13 and 17 were not currently using cannabis, which is higher than in 2018, which consisted of 80%.
  • The majority of the teens were familiar with the campaign, and they agreed that its message was clear, educational, and 75% percent said it was also likable.

Although the number of teens who participated in the survey was small, the City and County of Denver are hoping that it represents the whole of Denver youth population.

Experts agree that cannabis industry actors like MCTC Holdings Inc. (OTC: MCTC) are happy with the changed way in which authorities are trying to reach the youth. Accurate unbiased information empowers someone to make the right decisions rather than scaremongering in this day and age when information is readily available online.

420 with CNW – What Pot Companies Can Learn from Federal Hemp Legalization

The National legalization of hemp under the 2018 Farm Bill provides marijuana business with essential lessons to use when preparing for a highly analyzed, commodity-driven industry. The lessons would especially be valuable to small companies that are well managed.

The co-founder and president of the American Trade Association for Marijuana and Hemp, Michael Bronstein, said that although hemp and marijuana are different industries, marijuana can learn some few things from the national rollout of hemp.

Experts advise companies to anticipate changes in the marijuana industry, even if it takes a few more years before marijuana can be legalized at the federal level. The companies should become more professional in their operations by adopting standards from other industries that are highly regulated.

Bronstein said that companies, whether they are specializing in the production of CBD, THC, or both, should adopt best practices and participate responsibly in the industry.

The co-founder of Canna Advisors Diane Czarkowski said that companies should expect constant changes as well as more regulations in the industry. Canna Advisors is based in Colorado and offers several consulting services to marijuana and hemp companies.

Discussed below are some of the lessons marijuana companies should learn from the national legalization of hemp:

  1. It will take a while to develop federal rules

After the enactment of federal reforms on marijuana law, there is a possibility that cannabis policy development will drag. The chief of the National Hemp Association in Washington DC, Geoff Whaling, said that it is going to take years before hemp policies are implemented.

The USDA took 11 months to finalize interim final rules for hemp, and it continues working on them. And more months had to elapse before financial institutions could accept to serve the hemp industry.

  1. Expect federal and state oversight

After the federal legalization of marijuana, there would be a lot of scrutiny from several federal agencies such as USDA, FDA, and DEA. Therefore, marijuana companies should be prepared on how to deal with the regulations, how to implement them, and their impact on their businesses.

Bronstein said that his trade group is collaborating with state regulators in the development of standard testing, devices and appliances, transport, quality management, security, and track and trace systems. These will come in handy after the federal legalization of marijuana.

Companies should also anticipate inter-state marijuana businesses.

  1. Prepare for green rush 2.0

In the U.S., the pot sector has already experienced a ‘green rush,’ and another rush might happen after cannabis is legalized federally.

The executive director of the U.S. Hemp Growers Association, Caren Wilcox, said that in January 2019, the hemp industry experienced a rush where every farmer wanted to plant hemp. If this happens in the marijuana industry, only farmers with strong skills and are savvy in business would survive and thrive.

  1. Prices to fall as marijuana becomes a commodity

According to a senior attorney at McAllister Garfield, David Wunderlich, after commoditization of marijuana, cannabis companies should expect a drop in the price of retail and wholesale pot. The law firm specializes in hemp and marijuana law.

Wunderlich noted that since hemp was legalized, the price per kg has dropped to $1,000-$1,500 from $6,000-$7,000.

Industry experts have predicted that marijuana will become more of a commodity after it is federally legalized.

Wunderlich further said that marijuana companies should include several assumptions in their models and not assume that after legalization, the prices will remain constant and overinvest.

He also noted that a drop in prices affects the supply chain, which may result in a breach of contract, and delays in delivery.

According to experts, these are serious concerns that cannabis companies like Plus Products Inc. (CSE: PLUS) (OTCQX: PLPRF) may be thinking about since only the companies that can quickly adapt to the evolving landscape will survive the initial surge of players once pot is legalized federally in the U.S.
