On the side: mashed potatoes made, of course, with marijuana butter, and asparagus seared with marijuana-infused olive oil.

Dessert came in the form of a chocolate chili tart whose graham cracker crust contained marijuana butter. It was topped with “Gooey Ganja Mango Sauce."

I picked this up based on the grower – same guy that did such a wonderful job on the C-99 I reviewed.  I was shocked/surprised to find several immature seeds in the first bud I broke up.  I say immature, based on appearance of the seeds and also lack of crystal/trich coverage. 

I think this plant was pulled early due to stress causing it to herm….bummer because the mind buzz was decent (but short) even for the immature buds.  –NorCal_Cyclist'

'SANTA CRUZ — Six county men were arrested, and more than 1,000 marijuana plants were seized from three properties Thursday during an undercover operation, sheriff's deputies announced Friday.
"With that amount of plants and that many players, this is clearly a sophisticated operation," Sgt. Dan Campos said. "This is an example of many marijuana growing operations in the county. It's a subculture that thrives here."'

Planning Ahead: Cannabis Cup 2010

NUG MAGAZINE: Planning ahead… Cannabis Cup 2010!

'While talking to some friends over a couple Red Stripes, I was asked “what is your favorite place to be for 4/20?”  I smiled from ear to ear as I recalled my most cherished 420 destinations to date. For me (other than my home in Negril), AMSTERDAM has to be right there at the top. The two cities are both rich in culture, history and availability of the World’s best pot! One is the home of Reggae and the other, the home of the CANNABIS CUP.'

Montana Legislature to Look into Medical Marijuana Issues

'Prescription drug regulations span literally thousands of pages in state and federal statutes, as well as Federal Drug Administration rules.

Pharmacists must go to college for six years, spend a year in the field and pass tests proving they mastered both medicine and Montana law before they can sell prescription medication. Pharmacies also are required to keep detailed records and be audited annually.

In contrast, Montana's law regulating medical marijuana covers six pages — including the title page. Providers must be named by a licensed patient and have no drug offenses on their criminal records in order to legally grow and sell marijuana for medical purposes.'

Strain Review: Amnesia Ice

MARIJUANAREVIEWS.COM: Amnesia Ice From Amnesia (Meangreenmartian)

'Overall: This might have been the best hash we smoked all trip.  Mostly went straight kief and Amnesia Ice bowls at our local coffee shop, 420 Cafe which I will review a lot of samples from in the near future.  The buzz was insanely buggin and paranoid which I truly do love.  I will be sure to snag the full gram instead of the half next time.  –Meangreenmartian'

HAIL MARY JANE: Method Man and Crew Stopped By Police In Germany Looking For Weed

'Video of Method Man’s tour bus being stopped in Germany right after they reported to the police that their tour bus was broken into. At about 2:40 the police find weed on the side of the road and try putting it on Meth’s crew. Luckily Ledr P videos all of it and does by far the best job of talking themselves out of the charges.'
