Right now in the US, studies are showing that a good amount of the bud and extracts sold in dispensaries are contaminated with some sort of pesticide or chemical, which is of course not healthy to use. The reason behind this issue is as the industry grows, the cannabis farms must grow as well and in turn they have to adopt Big Ag Practices which include pesticide use and other harmful chemicals. That is why so many people are moving to homegrown cannabis and homemade extractions, as it gives you full control over exactly what goes into your plants. When the legalization passes in Canada, the same issue will arise with the commercial farms, which again will lead to an increase in homegrown cannabis!

What’s Next?

Now that we are waiting for July of 2018 to near, the Canada Government still has some important decisions to make in regards to the legalization of Cannabis Nationwide. First, they have yet to set up any tax laws or regulations for the sale of Cannabis. This is one of the most important steps in the entire process and must be handled ASAP or else serious issues can arise once legalization has passed. While the laws haven’t been enacted yet, right now tons of companies and startups are gearing up for the legalization so they can jump on the opportunity. That is why having all these laws and taxes figured out ahead of time is so important, as any big changes can really affect the success of these companies and in turn the industry as a whole.

It is also a good time to start preparing for your Home Cannabis Grow if you plan on having one once the laws have passed. During these next 9 months you can start learning exactly how the cannabis plant grows and how you can grow it at home properly. Getting familiar with the process now will only make things easier on you and your plants once you start growing! Also, you can begin to get supplies together and set up your grow space as the date nears!

That is all I have for now, but, as always, thank you for watching and until next time…

Happy Growing!
