In honor of 4/20/2020 on Monday, Designer watch brand Shinola released a limited edition watch under its Detrola line, according to Forbes.


The company confirmed the news on their Instagram page Monday.


The watch, released at 4:20 p.m. on April 20 pays homage to “420” — “the honorary hour and minute of the day to smoke as well as the month and day of the year to celebrate cannabis,” the publication reported.


Forbes reported “420” originated in a San Rafael high school “as the designated meetup time time to sneak out for a session.”


According to the company Instagram, the limited edition time piece has a “higher cause.” “With a little help from our friends Common and Woody Harrelson every dollar spent on this Detrola will be donated to support The Anti-Recidivism Coalition and Cabrini Green Legal Aide. Meet The Twenty After Four.”

New York’s legal cannabis industry was supposed to be the nation’s model of equity and regulation. Instead, it’s quickly becoming a cautionary tale. And the latest news doesn’t just raise eyebrows—it should set off alarms across the entire industry.

According to an April 7 report byThe New York Times, New York State regulators are conducting a sweeping investigation into some of the biggest cannabis companies operating in the state—Stiiizy, Grön, Mfused, and others—over allegations of using out-of-state or unauthorized cannabis to produce products for legal dispensaries. It’s a practice insiders call “inversion”—and it’s been the industry’s not-so-secret open secret for years.

Golden Teacher Mushrooms: Everything You Need to Know

Golden Teacher mushrooms (GT Mushrooms) are one of the most popular strains of psilocybin mushrooms. They are mostly cultivated for their above-average psilocybin potency, which serves as a beginner's gateway to psychedelic mushrooms. They feature caramel-colored stems and caps speckled with yellow hence the name Golden Teacher. 

These psychedelic mushroom strains are also known as golden caps, boomers, goldies, caps, and cubies.
