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:

Different Strains of Weed: How Many Are There?

Sour Diesel. Purple Kush. Amnesia Haze. If you’re a fan of cannabis, you’ve probably noticed that there are many different types to choose from, and most of them have funny names. And yes—they are all different. But, what makes them different, exactly? And how many marijuana strains are there, really? Well, let’s find out. 

What Are Cannabis Strains?

In popular culture, different cannabis cultivars are referred to as “strains.” Each individual strain is a cannabis variety that has been bred for its specific characteristics by a cannabis breeder. So, Granddaddy Purple is a strain. Harlequin is another strain. The former is a sleepy strain that produces a high percentage of the psychoactive tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). The latter is a mellow flower that produces both THC and cannabidiol (CBD). The plants both have different lineages and different characteristics. Hence, they are different strains. 

But, the word “strain” comes with a fair share of controversy. From a scientific perspective, referring to cannabis varieties as “strains” makes very little sense. And yet, “strain” is the word that remains in popular culture. The difference is mainly semantic—in the world of botany, different plant varieties are called cultivars, not strains. The word “strains” is usually reserved for bacteria and viruses, not plants.

Weed Makes Me Antisocial: Help!

Many people can relate to the experience of “hitting a wall” socially. Introverts, you especially know what I mean. But when self-enforced isolation is weed-induced, does that mean it’s time to reconsider a few habits or routines? Maybe even take a break from weed entirely?

Cannabis has long been negatively associated with laziness and haziness, and although that isn’t always the case with cannabis consumers, it also isn’t that far off from the truth if you haven’t optimized your regimen. Marijuana use, in particular, has occasionally been linked to various mental health and behavioral effects, such as anxiety, paranoia, and antisocial behavior, while also being linked to alleviating these same symptoms. So it's important to understand how cannabis works with and for your body and needs.
