What? What? I am shocked to find out that growers are pressuring labs into falsifying data in this state. From banned pesticides to potency inflation, here's the latest from @WeedWeekNews, which can hardly keep up with all the lawsuits in the canna biz: weedweek.com/stories/breakin…

My heart goes out to the journalists laid off this week. It's devastating to hear this same story over and over again. It's time for something new, and nine years after starting a media company, I have a few thoughts. Get in touch if you want to talk further
