No Shrubs, Just Buds
When I first ventured into the realm of medical cannabis in Australia, I thought I was in for a smooth ride. I mean, it’s legal now, right? How hard could it be? Well, buckle up, because I quickly found out that the road to high-quality cannabis is more of a bumpy dirt track filled with potholes of confusion, delays, and questionable imports.Now, I hardly consider myself a cannabis connoisseur but who doesn’t love quality? When you’ve got products coming in from countries with wildly different quality standards, it’s like trying to compare apples to… well, something that’s definitely not apples.Then there’s the whole prescription thing. Not all doctors are on board with prescribing cannabis. I’ve been to a few where it felt like I was trying to convince my grandma that Wi-Fi isn’t witchcraft and that Gen Z do serve a purpose.Most importantly let’s not ignore the elephant in the room: the cost.Quality cannabis in Australia can be pricier than a night out in Sydney. I’ve seen people scraping their wallets or worse—turning to some backdoor options. We’re talking about your health here, not a Facebook marketplace deal.I believe its crucial that Australia's laws evolve to ensure high-quality medicinal cannabis is accessible to those who need it.-Sky Greenfield "So versatile, it's practically magic"
Puff, Puff, Pass the Right Way
I never thought I would be in this situation but hey here we are, and here we go.Honestly I thought I was being so clever. "I'll just have a drop of cannabis oil before my Aunties Annual FAMILY potluck," I mused. "What could go wrong?" Apparently, everything.2hrs later, I found myself staring intently at the floral pattern on Aunt Mildred's wallpaper, convinced it was slowly spelling out the secrets of the universe.BUT Fear not! I’ve teamed up with my definitely-not-high team to bring you this absolutely essential guide for navigating the treacherous depths of joints, vapes, and oils.Joints: The OG of Getting High
Ah, the classic joint. Perfect for when you want to feel like a cool cat from the '60s or pretend you're in a Cheech and Chong movie. Pros? They're great for sharing (hello, social butterfly!), and rolling one makes you look like a sophisticated origami master. Cons? You might end up smelling like you've been hugging a skunk.Best for: Music festivals, pretending you're Bob Marley, or when you need to quickly dispose of evidence (kidding, officer!).Vapes: The Ninja of Narcotics
Vapes are the James Bond of cannabis consumption – sleek, discreet, and slightly mysterious. Perfect for the tech-savvy stoner or the paranoid smoker who doesn't want their grandmother to know they're high at the family reunion.Best for: Stealth missions to the movie theater, looking cool at a cyber-punk themed party, or when you want to hotbox your car without the telltale smoke signals.Oils: The Overachiever's Option
Cannabis oils are for those who like their THC the way they like their coffee – strong enough to make their eyes vibrate. It's perfect for the type-A personality who schedules their relaxation time down to the millisecond. Warning: May cause involuntary couch fusion.Best for: When you need to be high for approximately 420 hours straight, or when you want to experience what it's like to be a sloth trapped in molasses.The Solution
In the end, I believe choosing between joints, vapes, and oils is like choosing between pizza toppings – it's all good, just in different ways. Joints for the social butterfly, vapes for the secret agent, and oils for the astronaut-in-training.- Haze Thompson "Happiness is homemade... and often rolled"
A Game-Changer for Cannabis Perception?
Snoop Dogg, a prominent figure in both the entertainment industry and cannabis culture, made headlines with his involvement in the 2024 Olympics.However you feel about him, it does make you wonder about the ripple effect it has had on public perceptions of cannabis.Snoop's involvement may have started to break down long-standing barriers. His commentary watched by millions surely brought cannabis-adjacent conversations into living rooms worldwide, perhaps sparking curiosity or maybe even fiery debate.But beyond the viral clips and social buzz, Snoop's presence at one of the world's most prestigious sporting events may have inadvertently shifted the conversation around cannabis to a more positive light, especially its medicinal applications.This juxtaposition of Snoop's cannabis associations with the clean-cut world of Olympic sports has highlighted the evolving perception of cannabis. It begs the question: could this unlikely pairing be the catalyst for a more nuanced understanding of cannabis in society?While the full ripple effect of Snoop's Olympic appearance remains to be seen, lets all hope – it has created public interest and potentially opened doors for more informed discussions about cannabis use, both recreational and medicinal.- Blaze Walker "It's not just a plant, it's a future"
Why Boomers Need Millennials in Cannabis.
As Australia takes progressive steps towards legalizing and regulating cannabis, the industry is poised for rapid growth. With this emerging market comes the need for fresh talent to lead innovation, adapt to new laws, and connect with evolving consumer bases. One often overlooked yet crucial aspect is the role of intergenerational collaboration.Younger generations, particularly Millennials and Gen Z, bring fresh ideas and a forward-thinking approach to the cannabis industry. They’ve grown up in a digital-first world and can introduce tech-savvy solutions that streamline operations, marketing, and product development. As the cannabis sector becomes more competitive, innovation will be key to staying ahead, and young workers have the creative mindset to lead that charge.The cannabis consumer demographic is expanding, but younger consumers, particularly in their 20s and 30s, are driving a significant portion of market growth. These younger employees understand the needs, trends, and desires of their peers, making them invaluable assets in crafting products, marketing strategies, and customer experiences that resonate with this lucrative market segment.-Sky Greenfield

The Bull Run Scenario
Looking ahead, the Australian medical cannabis industry could be on the verge of a bull run. Several factors could accelerate growth.Regulatory Changes: Should recreational cannabis become legalized, the industry could see a sharp surge in demand, driving up both domestic sales and export opportunities.Increased Healthcare Integration: As medical cannabis becomes more integrated into mainstream healthcare, more patients could turn to it for treatment, further expanding the market.Investment Boom: Investor confidence in the sector is already growing. A full-scale bull run could occur if large pharmaceutical companies and institutional investors ramp up involvement, leading to further innovations and production capacity increases.With a strong foundation and favorable market conditions, Australia’s medical cannabis industry is well-positioned for substantial growth in the coming years, potentially reaching new heights in both domestic and international markets.- Blaze Walker
