In school my friends plus I regularly dreamed about moving to a state out west where medical cannabis happened to be legal.
Since the group of us live in the southeast, the group of us didn’t assume that medical marijuana would be legal in this state for at least another decade. When the ballot initiative gained over 77% approval during the election, I was happy about that. At last our state was finally legalizing cannabis, even if it was just for medical purposes. However, I didn’t realize that it would cost so much money every year between doctor plus state certification fees, however at least I can legally purchase plus possess my favorite plant. The first dispensaries were only permitted to sell cannabis oil, capsules, tinctures, plus vape cartridge products. The state legislature would not permit the dispensaries to sell whole flower medical marijuana, despite that being the most famous form of the plant across the board. We had to fight the state for several years before the laws were eventually changed plus cannabis flower products could eventually be purchased plus sold in state marijuana stores. Worst of all, they basically forced cannabis stores to put the flower buds in these ceramic cups with machine-stamped lids that forced you to break the glass to get the weed out. The whole idea was to force patients to use these pods with a Volcano vaporizer, however they were packed so tightly they weren’t even efficient for that sort of use. If you had the desire to get cannabis flower products, you either had to be a magician with hand tools or risk getting microscopic shards of glass in your lungs.
