The quintessential "Weed Mom" Martha Stewart has partnered with Canopy Growth Corp. in a joint bid to break into the CBD market in a sure bet that their curated flavors and her celebrity name will bring the ingredient to a new demographic.

Starting today, Canopy will offer Martha Stewart-branded CBD gummies in flavors ranging from kumquat to huckleberry, along with soft gels and oil drops, on its website. Later this year, Canopy will add a Stewart-branded line of CBD products for pets, a segment Canopy CEO David Klein sees reaching as much as $600 million in additional annual sales.

The products were developed with Stewart’s input on marketing and taste -- she sees the products as comparable to French confections “rather than the sticky, overly sweet versions you might find elsewhere.” The launch comes as her brand is being revived by consumers looking to improve their quality of life while stuck at home during quarantine.

Canopy says there’s still plenty of potential for CBD growth, estimating that while around 86% of Americans have heard of the product, only 18% have tried it. Stewart’s household name, meanwhile, should help attract more "Weed Moms" in the age range of 46 to 65.

Same as Stewart, Snoop Dogg and Seth Rogen (both of whom have their own brands in partnership with Canopy) attract the attention of people of all ages. This is, naturally, a well thought-out strategy for Canopy.

At launch, the Martha Stewart CBD product line includes:

The Truth About THC Candle: Cannabis Candles & How to Make Your Own

There are several different ways to consume cannabis, and some of them don’t even involve actual consumption. Cannabis candles are beginning to take over the candle game, allowing cannabis enthusiasts to enjoy the smells they’re used to having to cover up and hide: the danky goodness of weed.

As cannabis becomes less stigmatized in modern culture, people are beginning to come out and admit to their cannabis use. While smoking weed used to be something people felt they had to keep on the down low, the culture is becoming increasingly mainstream and the scent is now sought after rather than condemned. Many cannabis candles feature complex scent profiles, including notes of amber, which contribute to a rich and layered aromatic experience.

The Accidental Phenomenon That Became Strain of the Year
 
Here's something most people don't realize about Super Boof: the name that eventually won Leafly's 2024 Strain of the Year wasn't even the breeder's original choice.
San Diego cultivator Blockhead created this Black Cherry Punch and Tropicana Cookies cross as "Blockberry" - a straightforward nod to his breeding handle and the cherry genetics. But as cuts circulated through California's cannabis community, "Super Boof" caught on instead. The internet loves what the internet loves, and sometimes a less refined name just sticks.

Indica vs. Sativa: Are These Cannabis Labels Outdated? - The Bluntness

        Indica vs Sativa: The Truth
    
When you walk into a dispensary, the first question you’re often asked is whether you prefer an “indica” or “sativa” strain. For years, these categories have served as shorthand for cannabis effects: sativas are described as energizing and creative, while indicas are thought to promote relaxation and sleep. But as cannabis science evolves, so does the understanding of what truly influences a cannabis experience—and it turns out that the traditional indica/sativa dichotomy might be more marketing myth than scientific fact.
This article dives into the origins of these terms, the science debunking their validity, and why a new classification system could lead to a better consumer experience.

Weed Makes Me Introspective: When Cannabis Causes Us to Reconsider Our Life Choices

        Pot Prompts Self-Reflection
    
Being stoned comes with a wealth of side effects – some of which are just part of the fun, while others have been known to get smeared all over a person’s psyche, causing them to gawk out the window every thirty seconds to see if the cops are coming up the stairs.
Perhaps the least discussed byproduct of the bud, however, is its uncanny ability to send the user into a maddening state of introspection. Cannabis can make individuals more attuned to their bodily sensations, emotions, and inner thoughts, which can contribute to this introspective state. Weed can often inspire the high-minded to start questioning their life choices, setting them on a path of self-doubt, self-loathing, and self-destruction.

What Is Acapulco Gold Cannabis?
 
Acapulco Gold is a legendary sativa-dominant cannabis strain that originated in Mexico's Guerrero region during the 1960s. Known for its distinctive golden-colored buds and potent cerebral effects, this landrace strain has maintained its reputation as one of the most sought-after varieties among cannabis connoisseurs.
The strain typically contains 18-25% THC with minimal CBD (under 2%), making it primarily psychoactive rather than therapeutic in the traditional CBD sense.
