Thump Cannabis

Large dirt clods cause poor germination because seeds planted in or under them have little contact with the soil or may be buried too deeply. If the soil is too wet, it will be difficult to break up the large clods. In this case, allow it to dry a few days and try again. You…

A noticeable spike in PURE indices appeared in 1998 for organic agriculture caused by a single application of copper sulfate with an application rate of 150 lb/acre, which is ten times larger than the average application rate and clearly a data abnormality. The PURE index is a measure of environmental impacts on the per acre…

Lastly, future studies examining the effect of marijuana legalization on adolescent marijuana use should assess mediation by marijuana availability as a potentially important locus of intervention, particularly as more governments are likely to adopt liberalized marijuana policies. Researchers should seek to better understand this association and its environmental determinants, including in South America with additional years…

We used a multinomial logistic regression model to assess the effects of several variables on the relative frequencies of cause-specific mortality which consisted of “natural disease,” “poisoning,” “predation,” and “human-caused,” however, we excluded unknown causes. We pooled human-caused mortalities with those from vehicular strike as “vehicular/ human” for modeling due to small sample sizes and…

Estimated associations were imprecise because of the small number of units that were included in the analysis,but are meaningful for the study jurisdictions. Cities and unincorporated county areas that had 8 or more cannabis control policies generally had greater population density, more renters, fewer family households, more crowded households, and higher densities of social organizations compared with…

The proposition did not have the force of law but simply declared the city’s support of medical cannabis. The ballot passed with 79 percent of the vote. The backing of the city administration encouraged Peron to launch the San Francisco cannabis buyers’ club, whose main goal was to provide safe access to quality controlled medicine so…

Following the general resentment about drugs, scholarly literature contributed to the policy agenda by questioning the social and historical roots of drug regulation . Typically, scholars framed the drug problem through two…

The California Department of Public Health should have complete authority over packaging of marijuana and marijuana products. This authority should explicitly include, which the initiative does not, the option of requiring plain packaging. Plain packaging could contain graphic images of the specific health risks of marijuana use similar to those required for cigarettes in Australia…

A public health framework would seek to minimize consumption through public health regulations and public education, and create a social and legal environment modeled on California’s tobacco control program, which discourages the use of tobacco and protects nonusers from secondhand exposure. Through government regulation and market intervention, a strong public health framework would prevent a wealthy…

Given the diverse nature of cannabis and cannabinoid research, differences in state laws, and varied institutional regulations, every scientist will likely have a unique experience when initiating cannabis and cannabinoid work. In fact, with rapid changes in oversight and regulations, one cannot necessarily predict how to navigate regulatory hurdles for future studies based on one’s…
