Get Social and Connect with Cannabis Science and Technology

Here, we bring you our top five recent articles covering veterans and medical cannabis, cannabis legalized by the Omaha tribe, low THC extracts for Rett syndrome, ICE raids at a cannabis farm, and our newest Noid Factoid.

In this latest installment of Noid Knowledge, we are joined by Daniela Vergara, PhD, Hemp Specialist at the Cornell Cooperative Extension, and Anna Schwabe, PhD, Associate Lecture Professor at the University of Colorado, discussing the evolution of cannabis cultivation and the need for regional climate data. Their recent project, funded by the Agricultural Genomics Foundation, studies 10 cannabis varieties grown by farmers in different regions, specifically plant characteristics, soil type, and harvest metrics. They aim to understand how environmental factors affect cannabis yield and quality, providing actionable insights for farmers and breeders.

The results from the in vivo animal study also suggest sex-specific responses to cannabinol (CBN).

In this latest installment of Noid Knowledge, we are joined by Dr. Allison Justice, Founder and CEO of the Hemp Mine, and David Sandelman COO, CTO & Co-Founder of Cannatrol. Here, Allison and David discuss innovations in cannabis drying and curing, focusing on the Cannatrol technology which controls vapor pressure, preserving trichome integrity, and flower quality. Additionally, Allison shares how the Cannabis Research Center and Coalition (CRC) is transition to an open-source model to support cultivators, researchers, and home growers.

The Omaha Tribe of Nebraska made history by becoming the first fully legal and regulated cannabis system in the state for both recreational and medical cannabis.

According to a recent study, low THC cannabis extracts could be a potential tool for children diagnosed with Rett Syndrome.
