A team of researchers in Pittsburgh have invented a small, boxlike device that fulfills the same function as a Breathalyzer, except for pot instead of alcohol. It works by detecting THC (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol), the main psychoactive compound in cannabis, on the user’s breath.
“Nanotechnology sensors can detect THC at levels comparable to or better than mass spectrometry, which is considered the gold standard for THC detection,” reads the official release from Swanson School of Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh.
The engineers behind the project started to develop the device in 2016, as use of weed was becoming legal in an increasing number of states — presumably with the intention of the device then being used by law enforcement to ensure safe and moderate consumption.

Paul Pierce lit up the NBA as an all-star for 19 years. Now he’s co-founder and CEO of The Truth CBD Remedies and the Vesper One vape available on Eaze Wellness. But it hasn’t all been a smooth ride for Pierce. In 2002, he was stabbed 11 times, a harrowing event that led him on a journey to discover cannabis for pain, depression, and PTSD. Pierce talks about how he went from being a CBD advocate to a CBD entrepreneur. He’s joined by business partner, Elliot Mermel.
JON: So Paul, let’s start with you. First of all, congratulations on the product. It’s very cool, and I’m happy that you are a part of the cannabis world.

Jay Jenkins says he hesitated when a buddy suggested they vape CBD.
“It’ll relax you,” the friend assured.
The vapor that Jenkins inhaled didn’t relax him. After two puffs, he ended up in a coma.
That’s because what he was vaping didn’t have any CBD, the suddenly popular compound extracted from the cannabis plant that marketers say can treat a range of ailments without getting users high. Instead, the oil was spiked with a powerful street drug.
Some operators are cashing in on the CBD craze by substituting cheap and illegal synthetic marijuana for natural CBD in vapes and edibles such as gummy bears, an Associated Press investigation has found.
The practice has sent dozens of people like Jenkins to emergency rooms over the last two years. Yet people behind spiked products have operated with impunity, in part because the business has boomed so fast that regulators haven’t caught up while drug enforcement agents have higher priorities.

The cannabis business is going through growing pains in real-time. As everyone on the cannapreneur journey knows, these pains come from both self-inflicted startup situations, and from regulatory tension in an ever-evolving industry.
For the past three years, I’ve been on a quest to listen and learn from those who’ve been here before, and to connect with those who are on the same path now. We’re literally building a new business and a new industry at the same time.
From my interviews, research, and first-hand experience, I’ve learned that successfully scaling a company comes down to five elements that, when focused upon, can drive a cannabis startup to its full potential across this heavily regulated burgeoning market.

When it’s time to pack a bowl, most people have one of three cannabis preferences to determine how the course of their day will go.
Should you go for an energetic high that will allow you to actually do the productive adult things you intended to check off the list today, courtesy of sativa? Or is it more of a day for Netflix and lounging around the house with your friend, indica?
WHEN DOES YOUR STATE PREFER TO SMOKE? This marijuana map might surprise you
Maybe you want the benefits of both, in which case a hybrid is better suited for your inclination. Or, perhaps, you’re in the camp that different strains don’t actually have varying effects at all.
In any case, the folks at cbdinsider.com put together a new map: one that tracked over 50,000 tweets in order to find out whether cannabis users chose sativa or indica strains over the month of August (sorry, hybrid lovers and non-believers.)
