There’s never been a better time to get into edibles.

Cannabis purchases rose as much as 600 per cent since the beginning of March in Canada's biggest market thanks to stockpiling by consumers during the COVID-19 pandemic - and demand may be sticking around. 

Sales data provided by the Ontario Cannabis Store (OCS) over the past six weeks - the same period that COVID-19 spread across the country - show legal pot appears to be a more "habitual" purchase than a one-time novelty, according to Cheri Mara chief commercial officer at the provincial retailer. 

While it may be too early to really gauge how COVID-19 will impact legal cannabis sales over the long term, the OCS data provide a highly precise glimpse at how people are consuming cannabis during the pandemic. 

According to a new study, those who use marijuana for therapeutic purposes are more likely to report consuming it to address symptoms such as anxiety, insomnia, chronic pain and depression. The study, titled Medical reasons for marijuana use, forms of use, and patient perception of physician attitudes among the US population,” was published in the Journal of General Internal Medicine and first reported on by NORML.

CBD has grown in popularity over the past few years, becoming the go-to product of choice for soccer moms, Silicon Valley professionals, millennials, and just about anyone interested in natural, organic remedies.

As marijuana becomes more popular, consumers expect a consistent percentage of THC in the products they buy. While cannabis brands now deliver products that offer that consistency, attracting more casual customers may require even more fine-tuned accuracy in dosing.

Every year, cannabis enthusiasts and advocates celebrate the cannabis plant and legalization movement on April 20th.

The tradition was born several decades ago when a group of individuals frequently met in secret to consume cannabis at 4:20 PM, and the number ‘420’ later became a numerical representation of the cannabis movement. 

That led to April 20th being declared an ‘official’ cannabis holiday by cannabis enthusiasts all over the globe.

April 20th celebrations were relatively low tech in years past, but that all changed this year.

CBD bath bombs are some of the most successful CBD products on the market, combining skin care and relaxation — two of the compound’s strongest benefits with the most proven results. But how effective are they, really?

It’s hard knowing which results are real and which ones are exaggerated. CBD bath bombs are believed to be very helpful by those who use them, with dozens of blog posts discussing their benefits and perks. Even if the CBD provides little to no effects, the negative side effects of CBD topicals are limited and there’s really no way of going wrong with a well-made bath bomb.
