Historic Vote – House of Representatives has just voted to decriminalize cannabis.

In a vote rich with historic importance, the House of Representatives has voted to decriminalize cannabis, finally siding with most Americans who have rejected prohibitionist policies and approve of the legalization of the plant.

On Friday, the House voted by 268-164 to pass the Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement (MORE) Act of 2019, marking the first time that either chamber of the bicameral Congress has put decriminalization to the vote.

The bipartisan bill sponsored by Vice President-elect Kamala Harris has been touted as the most comprehensive federal cannabis reform legislation ever introduced and comes after over half a century of a failed โ€œwar on drugsโ€ that fueled mass incarceration and other collateral damage for poor communities.

However, the approval of the bill is largely a symbolic victory for cannabis legalization and criminal justice reform advocates, with Senate Republicans appearing firm in their stance that they wonโ€™t approve of the measure.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has blasted the bill on Twitter, remarking earlier this year on a study about diversity within the cannabis industry: โ€œThis is their effort at coronavirus relief?โ€

Democrats, on the other hand, have said that the move to legalize weed will be a boon for local budgets and will end the historic injustice of the so-called โ€œwar on drugs,โ€ which has negatively impacted poor communities of color in a disproportionate manner. Majority Leader Steny Hoyer said in a September statement that โ€œThe MORE Act remains a critical component of House Democratsโ€™ plan for addressing systemic racism and advancing criminal justice reform.โ€

Voters in various states have also largely approved the legalization of medical or recreational cannabis across the country, with voters in four states โ€“ Arizona, Montana, New Jersey, and South Dakota โ€“ voting to legalize in the 2020 election. 15 states now allow the recreational use of the plant, while 38 states allow medical marijuana. The MORE Act had the support of both liberals and libertarian-leaning conservatives in the House who see the responsible use of cannabis as a personal right, as well as other Republicans who believe that it should be up to the states to regulate the dispensation of the plant without the interference or control of federal authorities.

โ€œWeโ€™re not rushing to legalize marijuana. The American people have already done that,โ€ said Rep. Earl Blumenauer (OR-D), one of the chief architects of the bill, prior to the House floor vote on Friday morning. โ€œWeโ€™re here because Congress has failed to deal with a disastrous war on drugs and do its part for the over 15 million marijuana users in every one of your districts โ€ฆ Itโ€™s time for Congress to step up and do its part. We need to catch up with the rest of the American people.โ€

A vote on the MORE Act had initially been set for September, but the vote was delayed as Congress wrangled over the passage of a coronavirus aid bill before moving on to addressing legalization. โ€œTimes have changed โ€” marijuana should not be a crime,โ€ Vice President-elect Harris said in a 2019 press release. โ€œWe need to start regulating marijuana, and expunge marijuana convictions from the records of millions of Americans so they can get on with their lives. As marijuana becomes legal across the country, we must make sure everyone โ€” especially communities of color that have been disproportionately impacted by the War on Drugs โ€” has a real opportunity to participate in this growing industry.โ€The MORE Act would comprehensively decriminalize cannabis on a federal level by de-scheduling it from the Controlled Substances Act โ€“ where it is absurdly classified as a Schedule 1 drug โ€œwith no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuseโ€ alongside heroin โ€“ and opens the door to states setting their own policies regulating the commerce and consumption of the plant. A major highlight of the bill includes expungements of federal convictions for a range of low-level cannabis offenders, removing a barrier that bars access to voting, employment, professional licenses, housing, and even the ability to adopt a child. States would be incentivized to also follow suit. The legislation would also provide for re-sentencing and block federal agencies from denying public benefits and security clearances over past cannabis convictions, while immigrants would no longer be denied citizenship over marijuana. The MORE Act would also levy a 5% sales tax on commercial cannabis, and investing in grant programs addressing the needs of communities who have suffered serious negative impacts from the โ€œWar on Drugs,โ€ especially those communities of color that have suffered disproportionate over-policing and mass incarceration.

Marijuana Company of America and Cannabis Global in JOINT Venture.

Marijuana Company of America, Inc. (OTC:MCOA) and Cannabis Global, Inc. (OTC:CBGL) recently entered into an agreement where each became the largest shareholder of the other.

Thus, CBGL owns 650 million shares of MCOA and MCOA owns just over 7.2 million shares of CBGL. The Companies engaged in this transaction to promote the growing common interests and collaborations between these two pioneering cannabis and CBD operations.

Both companies have recently enhanced their programs to maximize shareholder value. MCOA is aggressively overhauling its marketing strategy, rapidly expanding its product lineโ€™s geographic reach, and revamping its capital and debt structures. The two companies have agreed to collaborate in several areas, including expanding product offerings in Europe and

Latin America and developing Cannabis Globalโ€™s Project Varin designed to discover and market new methods to infuse hemp extracts and cannabis into food, beverages, and other consumer products. Both companies have big plans for 2021. We are thrilled you have chosen to join in our journey to enhance shareholder value as the hemp and cannabis industries move into 2021.

Global Opportunities – HempSmart Heads Next to South America Countries

Cannabis Global (OTC:CBGL): National Market Focus: Cannabis Global is on the move relative to product innovation. The emphasis moving forward for the Company will be to target what will likely be the new National cannabis market as the incoming Biden/Harris administration moves toward nationwide cannabis legalization. National Market for Secure Cannabis Transport: CBGL has acquired Ethos Technology, LLC and its proprietary ultra-secure cannabis transport system. While the California market alone is likely large enough to support a robust market for this innovative product line, CBGL is also eyeing the likely upcoming market for interstate transport of cannabis and the numerous tracking, security, and administrative challenges the market expansion will present. Hemp You Can Feelโ„ข Product Line: The Hemp You Can Feelโ„ข product line is based on one of the most innovative hemp infusion technologies in the marketplace – a unique process where honey bees are provided cannabinoids which the bees use to make a unique non-infused, water-soluble compound, which is used to infuse non-alcoholic cocktail mixers, coffee products and the unique line of organic and artificial sweeteners. Sales of these lines are being driven by the third party platforms, including Amazon, which has accepted several shipments in increasing size. The technology partner for this innovative line is Phyto Pharma, LTD of Israel. National Market for Infusion Technologies – Project Varin: CBGL has made great strides on the intellectual property front, with four provisional and one non-provisional patent filing on new methods to infuse cannabinoids into foods, beverages, and consumer products. CBGL has recently completed product development on what is believed to be the industryโ€™s first food-grade cannabinoid nano formations designed to rewrite the cost and efficiency equation for the coming nationwide cannabinoid infusion marketplace. Cannabis Global expects to soon begin announcing a series of new products based on this innovative platform with additional non-provisional patent filings expected over the coming weeks. While this is only a brief summary of where each Company is moving, rest assured both Companies have established strong plans to keep our investors informed. Investors in MCOA and CBGL can expect robust news flow over the coming months, as these strategies move forward. We encourage you to reach out to us to let us how we are doing or to express any concerns you have. Our management teams look forward to hearing from you. About Marijuana Company of America, Inc.

Pet Owners Have found โ€œFireworks Secretโ€ – CDB Pet Drops

Just as some CDB Users have found comfort in CDB Drops, some pet owners are turning their attention to CBD products to help calm their pets during the fireworks.

Two-year-old Smoky is a playful husky, but when it comes to the loud boom of the fireworks on the 4th of July, his owner tells us he tends to get skittish.

โ€œEven last night there was only like two orย three that went off and he was running afraid of and trying to hide under me and my bed,โ€ said a customer in the store.

The customer says sheโ€™s tried everything from turning up the music and TV to even giving her pets a sedative to calm them during the 4th of July.

Thatโ€™s why some pet owners are looking at CBD, a hemp-based product typically used to treat pain and anxiety in people.

There are many places that sell CBD, that not only sells products for people to use but ones for pets, too.

A local owner, has been selling CBD products for the last two years, and heโ€™s already sold out of dog treats for the 4th of July.

He says the CBD oil can be added to their food, water, or a droplet can be given to a dog behind their tongue.

โ€œSo theyโ€™re going to be more relaxed, youโ€™re going to see them maybe laying down, not as intense, theyโ€™re not going to as on edge as they were before taking CBD,โ€ said the owner.

He says CBD is safe for pets as long as they follow the appropriate dosage on the label. You also want to make sure it was made in the U.S.ย and you know whatโ€™s in it.

โ€œYou have to be careful you donโ€™t mix certain additives with the CBD oil, for example like peppermint is toxic for animals so you want to stay away that,โ€ said the owner.

This year a shopper in his shop said she may consider givingย her dog CBD.ย 
ย 
โ€œThe oil’s probably a little healthier for them in the long run I would say, if it helps calm them down a little bit and theyโ€™re less afraid of the fireworks, I might as well give it a try,โ€ said the shopper.

We at “Inspirational Technologies” recognize that many pet owners and are looking for a quality “CBD” (THC Free) for their pets and themselves. That is why we are promoting this product and recommendย  that you give it a try.ย ย

CBD -Youโ€™re Guidebook to Growing Home Hemp 2021

With everyone on social isolation, businesses shutdown, and some mild uncertainty in the cannabis/hemp industry, what better time than now to work on your green thumb and start your own home-grow?

Growing Hemp during Staying Home Guide


Indoor or Outdoor? Now that the US has given us a guide on Hemp (see our post on the USDA) effective March 22, 2021. For those who would like to try their hand at Hemp, remember now we should follow the instruction of law. Aside from that, what is a good process to get going?ย 

The very first thing youโ€™ll need to do is decide if you want to grow your plants inside or outside.

Of course, indoor grown CBD flowers will be of superior quality, but it takes more work and a larger initial investment.

Choosing to grow inside also depends largely on if you have enough space to pull it off. A nice sized closet would work, where you can hook up some lights and the plants will have enough room to grow both in height and width, but be mindful of your electric use outside the growroom, as your utility bills will go up significantly.

If you plan to grow outside, youโ€™ll want to get familiar with your gardening zone, this will help you determine when to plant your crop for best results. Gardening zones in the United States are listed as 1-9, with 1 being the coldest and 9 being the hottest. Typically, somewhere between zones 6 and 8 will be optimal, but you can grow quite a bit in zone 9 if you have an adequate watering source.

Florida Hemp

Some areas might not be suitable for growing CBD Flowers outside at all, so bear that in mind when doing your research. Another option thatโ€™s becoming increasing popular is growing CBD hemp flowers in a greenhouse. Greenhouses replicate the atmosphere of an indoor grow, to an extent, and will save you a lot of money in energy costs. They allow for year-round cultivation in a climate controlled environment where you can regulate the sunlight exposure as you wish.

If I were to choose an option, Iโ€™d personally go with the greenhouse.

Once youโ€™ve settled on where you want to grow your plants, youโ€™ll need to get everything set up. That starts with deciding what strain/s you want to grow. Cultivation methods for CBD hemp flowers can vary depending on the strain youโ€™re growing. Do you want a regular strain or an autoflowering strain? Indica, sativa, or hybrid?

Any specific strains you like better than others? Letโ€™s take a quick look at how each of these options might impact your grow-op or your final product.

Picking a Strain

Weโ€™ll start with regular strains vs autoflowering. With CBD flower plants, there are 2 main stages of the growing cycle: the vegetative stage and the flowering stage. The transition from one stage to the next requires changes in the plantโ€™s light cycle. When growing outside, youโ€™ll need to make sure you plant in the correct season, so your plants go into the vegetative stage when time โ€œsprings forwardโ€.

If youโ€™re growing inside, youโ€™ll need different colored light bulbs to replicate the changes. With autoflowering strains, well, they switch to the flowering stage automatically without any assistance from external light sources.

These strains are typically more user-friendly and would be ideal for the novice grower, but generally speaking, the quality of the buds is not quite as good as with regular strains.ย  The next step is to pick an actual strain.

Youโ€™ll need to decide if you want indica, sativa, or hybrid โ€“ although letโ€™s be honest, these days, nearly all strains are hybrids; but more on that another time. Also, do you want a specific CBD hemp flower strain or are you O.K. with something random and new? This is the easy part since it really all boils down to personal preference.

For the record, a few easy to grow strains are Blue Dream, Green Crack, and Harlequin.

Getting Set Up Seeds or Clones? Seeds have more options but much more difficult. Clones are easier to grow but can be harder to find and sketchy to transport depending on where you live.

 

If you choose to start from seed, the first thing you will need to do is get your plant sprouted. If youโ€™re buying good quality seeds from a trusted seedbank, you can go ahead and put the seeds straight into the soil and let them do their thing.

 

If you receive some seeds and want to test their viability before putting planting them directly, you can germinate the seed by putting in a damp paper towel, in a warm place with indirect sunlight.

I use a window where there is an overhang from the roof. Direct sunlight is often too strong for germinating seeds and even for young, barely sprouted plants.

Now when it comes to actual growing equipment, that will vary based on the growing method you choose (indoor, outdoor, soil, hydro, aeroponic, etc.), or the climate you live in if you choose to grow outdoors.ย 

Industrial Hemp Farm

That said, here are a few basic itemsย you will likely need no matter where or how you plan on growing: Growing tent (with built in ventilation system) Lights (with different color and wattage bulbs to for the flower stage)

 

 

Soil, coco coir, or another planting medium, Filtration fixturesย 

Timers, Thermometer, Hydrometerย  Pots and other basic gardening toolsย 

You can get all of these items for about $500 to $750, again, depending on your geographic location as well as what exactly you need.

If youโ€™re growing inside, youโ€™ll need to account for the higher utility bills as well.

This all might sound a bit pricey, but keep in mind, this is just the initial investment.

In the long run, you will save money not having to buy flower and you will have much more control over the final product. After getting the initial items together, we are now ready to move forward and find that seed that will satisfy the government regulations and your foot in the soil.ย
