I've been running around trying different legal weed offerings in WA state since the day the market opened. {I got to see my leg on the news where i was standing in line} I have to say that I have not been impressed.
One of the requirements is for testing of THC as if this is the only metric driving the effect of cannabis. Something every long-standing member of this community likely suspicions is incorrect {it is incorrect} ~problematic is that this thinking is driving for higher & higher % #s leaving WA state to wade through the vanilla looking for increasingly hard to find gems. Ultimately the government is viewing legalization in these pilot states as an experiment. & the data from that experiment will be flawed so long as this paradigm continues. It will be the effect of legalized uber high THC franken-products NOT so much the effect of normal high quality cannabis many of us know & love.
How can we raise awareness & affect public opinion when this fledgling science is so neglected? NTM research is typically isolate & quantify where synergistic whole plant methodologies tend to be ignored by the scientific community
