Denver officials want to clear some 10,000 low-level marijuana convictions, following in Boulder County’s footsteps

Denver officials are planning to clear thousands of marijuana convictions prosecuted before its use became legal in the state.

Marijuana is getting cheaper. For some states, that’s a problem.

Marijuana is getting cheaper. For some states, that’s a problem.

Wholesale marijuana prices in Colorado have fallen by a third in just the past 12 months, continuing a price crash that began soon after the drug was legalized. Although this implies that some marijuana entrepreneurs are going to go bankrupt, the bigger financial hit will be felt by states that tax marijuana based on its […]

Nationwide recreational marijuana legalization makes Canada a fertile landscape for ganjaprenuers.

Denver’s first-of-its-kind social marijuana use program for businesses is mostly a bust. Can it be fixed?

When it comes to navigating the maze of restrictions that came with Denver’s voter-passed law allowing marijuana use in licensed businesses, The Coffee Joint cracked the code. The first — and so far only — licensee under the 2016 ordinance is a combination coffee shop and bring-your-own-cannabis vape bar that’s within spitting distance of Interstate 25, south […]

Oregon Has Too Much Marijuana On Hand, While Colorado’s Pot Supply Is Just Right

Two of the first states to broadly legalize marijuana took different approaches to regulation that left Oregon with a vast oversupply and Colorado with a well-balanced market. But in both states prices for bud have plummeted. A new Oregon report by law enforcement found nearly 70 percent of the legal recreational marijuana grown goes unsold, while an […]
