420 with CNW – Why Humidity Matters During Cannabis Cultivation

For centuries, wine merchants have been cognizant that sticking to every step of the winemaking process is crucial in ensuring the quality and value of the end product. So, they have to be cautious from cultivation and harvesting techniques to fermentation, aging, and packaging of the wine. This strict process of winemaking is now being adopted in the production of marijuana.

Professionals who have worked in the consumer-packaged-goods (CPG) sector for several decades have been interested in finding out how the quality and value of marijuana flower is affected by post-harvest storage and packaging. After conducting research, it was found that the most significant issues affecting quality and value are storage conditions and humidity levels, as well as the challenge of preventing mold.

Researching about what happens to marijuana once it is harvested is the Boveda research team, which previously studied humidity control in manufactured and CPG products. What prompted the research is the fact that there wasn’t much information on marijuana storage. The most surprising finding is the impact of evaporation on the quality and sale of weed.

The loss of moisture in marijuana affects the overall product.

Profitability is equated to the weight of the cannabis flower in the industry because the weightier the harvest, the higher the market value. The results of the research showed that if the storage environment’s optimal relative humidity (RH) drops by 5%, six-pounds are lost for every 1,000 pounds of cannabis buds. If the wholesale price of a gram of marijuana flower were $5, the loss in revenue would be $13,500. The established humidity levels by the ASTM International ranges from 55%-65%. ASTM is an independent industry standards organization.

For testing humidity levels, the Boveda research team purchased cannabis flowers from retail stores in multiple states, which showed that most of the strains sold today in the retail outlets are below the established relative humidity levels. This means that thousands of dollars in revenue is being lost despite the frequent changes in the wholesale price of the flower.

When we look at the history of marijuana flower, growers, processors, and packagers always insisted on storing the bud at a specific level of humidity ‘ceiling.’ This is because when the flower is stored at high moisture levels, it is prone to mold development or growth of microbes. That is why some people tend to dry the flower beyond the recommended levels.

Some people excessively dry the bud because they believe in the fallacy of rehydrating the cannabis flower; however, this method damages the trichomes, which in turn destroys the quality of the flower — trichomes house the plant’s resins, cannabinoids, and terpenes. Thus, when trichomes are damaged, the flower loses its aroma, taste, scent, and appeal, all of which are very important because it’s what customers look for when purchasing weed — preserving these elements when drying and packaging is therefore vital because rehydration cannot restore them.

Cannabis growers can use desiccants for absorbing moisture, mechanical equipment that alters relative humidity, or two-way moisture control sachets that are designed for packaging containers to control humidity.

If you are venturing into marijuana processing or cultivation, experts advise that you take the cue from established cannabis businesses like IONIC Brands Corp. (CSE: IONC) (OTC: IONKF) and Plus Products Inc. (CSE: PLUS) (OTCQB: PLPRF) which have mastered the delicate balance between keeping humidity high enough so that product weight remains optimum while also keeping it low enough to prevent mold and other such problems.

420 with CNW – Dream Job? Earn 36k a Year to Smoke Marijuana Daily

A cannabis company has a job offer for potheads, cannabis products reviewer. The lucky person will be testing a wide range of marijuana products daily from the comfort of his/ her house. This lucky individual will then be paid $36,000 per year, which equates to $3,000 each month.

American Marijuana is among the most trusted online resource for medical marijuana, and the company is looking for a person who can give unbiased reviews and honest opinions about their wide range of products. The job is significant, and 100% legit.

However, American Marijuana is not employing someone just because they love smoking weed. According to their website, they put a disclaimer to indicate that people should not expect to be hired just because they can use pot. They further said that they are also looking to see if the individual has in-depth knowledge of cannabis, which can be applied to educate their readers. The chosen individual has to be residing in the United States or Canada where marijuana is legal. The candidate has to be fit, healthy, 18 years and above, and be comfortable in front of a camera.

Maybe having a degree in marijuana will be an added advantage.

The nitty-gritty of the job description is that they are looking for a person who can write reviews on a variety of marijuana products, which includes vapes, cannabis strains, edibles, and CBD oils. The person will also provide readers with candid and reliable information on the products.

At the beginning of every month, a box packaged with different brands and strains of marijuana will be shipped to the hired individual. The products include vapes, edibles, and CBD oils.

The lucky applicant is expected to record the unboxing and their experience on film. They are also required to test the products and write in a blog about their experience as well as everything else they will be doing with the products.

They are expected to give detailed write-ups of their experience during and after use. This is to educate readers and video viewers on the impact of the products.

According to the terms and conditions of the job advert, the $3,000 salary is dependent on the experience and capability of the applicant.

Marijuana is becoming more mainstream with each passing year, so it isn’t surprising that such job offers are beginning to popup. Cannabis industry analysts expect sector players like Willow Biosciences Corp. (CSE: WLLW) and Neutra Corp. (OTC: NTRR) to come up with novel jobs that pay handsomely.

420 with CNW – Superstar Drake Joins Cannabis Industry by Partnering with Canadian Pot Company

The booming marijuana sector and the ever-growing hemp-derived CBD industry has attracted the attention of celebrities and athletes who are signing up to pitch for either of the brands. On Thursday, the hip-hop artist Drake whose full name is Aubrey Drake Graham, entered into a partnership with Canopy Growth, a Canadian pot company, to launch his own cannabis company, More Life Growth in his hometown, Toronto.

Drake has joined the wave of celebrities who are partnering with cannabis companies either by selling products, being brand ambassadors, joining their Board of Directors, or in his case, partnering with Canopy Growth on a joint venture business.

Some of the other celebrities who are in cannabis business include Gweneth Paltrow, Jay-Z, Martha Stewart, Montel Williams, Snoop Dogg, Tony Hawk, Willie Nelson, and Whoopi Goldberg. And the question on everyone’s mind is if we have gotten to the peak of celebrity cannabis?

Kantar is a business insight and brand consulting firm whose senior Vice President, Ryan McConnell, said that celebrity involvement in the marijuana businesses is yet to be fully saturated.

Marijuana is an emerging industry that is still regarded as illegal by some, and through celebrity endorsement and collaboration, the sector is gaining credibility and trust among the citizens.

Diana Eberlein, who is an entertainment marketing specialist, said that celebrity involvement is not a guarantee for brand growth because people are attracted to real and authentic brands.

Eberlein, who is now the head of marketing at SoRSE, further said that a brand would lose its audience faster if it does not feel authentic. SoRSE is a marijuana company that produces water-soluble cannabis oil. Mad Tasty is a company that develops hemp sparkling water. Ryan Tedder, One Republic singer, founded Mad Tasty. Tedder’s company worked with SoRSE in the production of water-soluble marijuana oil.

Eberlein said that although Drake is very popular, he is not readily associated with marijuana. However, he has a huge following, and the More Life Growth Company’s success will depend on his and his team’s marketing efforts.

His agreement with Canopy Growth is not very different from those of other celebrities as it will involve endorsements, investments, and offering advice on some issues. Drake is the majority shareholder of More Life Growth, said Cassel’s, the law firm representing the Canadian company.

The agreement between Drake and the company shows that 60% of the shares of More Life Growth belongs to Drake, while Canopy Growth retains 40%. This gives the company the ability to utilize certain intellectual property rights in Canada and across the globe.

According to Andrew Carter, an analyst working with brokerage and investment banking Stifel, brand development in Canada is under strict restriction against using celebrity names; Carter believes that Canopy is yielding to financial gain since the company has been in an operational and financial bind.

It remains to be seen what marijuana industry players like Youngevity International Inc. (NASDAQ: YGYI) and Green Growth Brands Inc. (CSE: GGB) (OTCQB: GGBXF) make of this technique of trying to break into new markets by partnering with celebrities.

420 with CNW – Vote to Legalize Marijuana Federally Planned in Congressional Committee

Two sources with information regarding an announcement that will be made soon said that this week, the Judiciary Committee of Congress is planning on holding a monumental vote that will mark the end of the federal prohibition of cannabis.

The legislation to remove marijuana from the Controlled Substance Act (CSA) and set aside funds for healing communities that were negatively affected by the war on drugs, especially the people of color, was sponsored by the Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, Jerrold Nadler (D-NY).

The legislation would set aside 5% of federal tax on all marijuana sales, which would be used to pay for programs such as job training and legal services for people who are negatively impacted by the war against drugs. That fund would also be used to provide loans to small marijuana businesses that are controlled by individuals who are socially and economically disadvantaged. Further more, the funds will be used to eliminate the hurdles in licensing and employment in the marijuana sector. Some of the programs would be managed by a new marijuana Justice Office which is a branch of the Department of Justice.

One of the provisions in the legislation states that the Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement (MORE) Act would provide for marijuana ex-convicts with resentencing and sealing of their records. It would also ensure that immigrants who have a history with marijuana are not denied U.S. citizenship status.

The legislation now has 55 Democratic co-sponsors. The 2020 presidential candidate Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA) is leading the Senate companion bill despite it not being slated for consideration in the Republican-controlled chamber.

The Judiciary Committee vote, which is planned to take place this week on Wednesday, comes two months after the House unanimously passed the bipartisan bill to increase bank access by marijuana businesses.

On Saturday, while speaking at a conference in Southern California, Rep, Barbara Lee (D-CA) vaguely revealed the upcoming committee vote. Rep Lee is not a member of the Judiciary Committee. The judiciary spokesperson has not issued a response to the impending vote.

The voting on the bill comes after a hearing that was held in July by a Judiciary subcommittee that reviewed the link between cannabis legalization and racial equality.

The markup will give the lawmakers on both sides a chance to amend the legislation. It could also provide more information on the emerging divide between marijuana reform supporters who are for healing communities impacted by prohibition first and those who believe that legalization legislation should be limited to states as it stands a better chance of being approved in the Senate and landing on President Trump’s desk.

Some groups that are pro-legalization asked for the delay of the scheduled vote on financial services legislation insisting that they should first approve of remedial justice provisions such as the MORE Act. Marijuana advocates believe that in the Republican-controlled Senate, only a more modest bill for federally legalizing marijuana would be approved, such as the STATES (the Strengthening the Tenth Amendment Entrusting States) Act, which was introduced by Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Sen. Cory Gardner. It earned the support of President Trump. The legislation would not remove weed from CSA, and it does not have provisions for ensuring equity for the impacted communities.

It would be enlightening to hear what cannabis companies like Cannabis Strategic Ventures (OTCQB: NUGS) and Hemptown USA have to say about the best way to get comprehensive marijuana policy reforms through these two politically divergent federal legislative chambers.
