A friend of mine told me about Phenibut, so I did some online research, and it sounded too good to be true. Phenibut combines tranquilizing effects, reduction of stress and anxiety, improvement of impaired sleep, and even anti-convulsant and anti-PTSD effects, while being legal in the U.S. and almost totally free from side effects. In short, [...]

But now it’s officially out, so before I give you the details on a special free offer, please read this letter from Laurel [...]

Why Our Grandparents Were So Happy…
Have you ever wondered why our great-grandparents all had such fond memories of their youth? Well…I’m surprised they remembered anything at all!!! Forget Tums and Tylenol. Forget Aleve and Benedryl. Look at the cool stuff they had back then! A bottle of Bayer’s ‘Heroin’ Between 1890 and 1910 heroin was sold as a “non-addictive substitute” for morphine. It [...]
The Great Cannabis Oil Experiment
It’s one of those questions that’s been disputed for years in cannabis circles: what’s the best temperature to use? Whether the subject in question is decarboxylating, making firecrackers, cannabis oil, or glycerin tincture, everyone seems to have a different opinion. Well, I have lots of opinions myself, but I prefer facts. So I decided to [...]
This Mysterious Package Arrived on 4/20
This cat doesn’t know it, but he might be sitting next to the most important advance in cannabis processing since the discovery of decarboxylation. Yes, I’m teasing you. But I’m teasing myself too, because it really did show up weeks ago, and it’s driven me nuts because I’ve been too busy writing (yes, that book [...]

THC Deterioration In Cannabis Confectionery
About six or seven weeks ago, I rediscovered a package of Cosmic Caramels tucked away in the refrigerator that had basically been sitting there for 2½ years. They worked just like they originally did; same effects, same strength, the whole bit. I’ve been slicing off pieces of the last caramel every week or so, as part [...]
How To Make Old Hippie’s AVB Pot Pizza
I am very gratified that so many people love and appreciate my cannabis cooking recipes ( How To Blast Off with Nutella Firecrackers is currently closing in on There’s No Such Thing As Marijuana for the top all-time article here). But I figure that almost everything can be improved, so that’s why I came up with this [...]

A Lot of Controversy Over A Molecule Or Two
It’s been said, “The devil is in the details”. It’s true that it’s devilish work to get everything perfectly right, and I do try, but I don’t claim to be perfect. But still, it’s a worthy goal to be as correct as possible, when people are depending on what you write. So I often agonize [...]
Breaking News: Steve Kubby Ends Long Activist Career
Tonight I was contacted by a colleague I’ve worked with on a number of projects, who is a bit more well-connected in the marijuana activist community than I am. He had gotten a surprising and very frank and heartfelt email from Steve Kubby, saying that Steve was planning to leave not only the entire marijuana [...]

Marijuana Is Now Legal In Colorado!
Actually, I started this article last Thursday night and the title actually said “Washington” then. But I got so excited for them being the first state to experience legalization that I hit the old vape a little too hard and couldn’t actually finish. I haven’t written anything in a few weeks, mostly because I’ve been [...]
Cannabis Is Part of Our Society
Ever since Prohibition was repealed, the ongoing excuse to keep alcohol and tobacco legal (as opposed to marijuana) is because they’re “part of our society”. Never mind the huge ongoing death toll from smoking, long-term alcohol abuse and drunk driving. Well, millions of Americans use cannabis every day too. It is also part of our [...]
How To Beat a Urine Test for THC
If you’re looking for a job or trying to keep your current one while taking your state-approved medical marijuana, drug tests are a constant source of worry. We don’t believe people should be judged on the chemical content of their urine, but the content of their minds and the conduct of their character. I recently [...]

I Just Vaped Weed, And This Is Crazy…
So it turns out I have insomnia, and like a large number of other people I’ve found that medical marijuana is very good for taking care of my symptoms. Out like a light in 15 just about every time, if I hit the vape 3 or 4 times, rather than the two tokes I take [...]

What “Low Tolerance” Can Really Mean For You
I’ve written before about the benefits of microdosing: you’re less likely to have “overdoses” (getting too high to work, study, or even stand up), less likely to cause health problems or interactions with other medications, and less likely to get negative side effects from cannabis (anxiety/paranoia/panic, generally from getting too high too fast, especially with [...]
