Colorado was one of the first states to embrace medical marijuana, but that doesn’t mean you can just walk into a hospital with
over a pound of pot – yet that’s what a man allegedly did at a Lakewood emergency room.
Ellementa, a startup dedicated to building a network for women interested in cannabis wellness, just started its Denver chapter in June, but already its Mile High meetings are as comfortable — and energizing — as a coffee klatsch. On July 12, a dozen women gathered in a room at the…
Why is it so hard to find your favorite pot products at different dispensaries? Our Stoner explains.
Getting motivation to go outside and play like you once did during the summer gets harder as the years go on, especially when it’s 90 degrees out in the morning. These sativas might not lower your body temperature, but they’ll chill your mind enough to stop worrying about those musty britches you’ve been walking around with all day.
Qrazy Train comes from the Pacific Northwest by way of TGA Genetics, which apparently thought the strain was so crazy that it required an alternate spelling. In TGA’s defense, the hybrid strain is pretty fucking wild. I’ll admit to overusing the word “orgy” in my day-to-day vocabulary as much as the next douche, so let’s just say Qrazy Train was born from one legendary strain-bang.
Brewbudz, a line of cannabis-infused coffee pods in development for over a year, has finally landed in marijuana dispensaries. Unfortunately for wake n’ bakers in Colorado, all of those dispensaries are in Nevada – but not for long. The edibles brand debuted in Nevada today during that state’s first fortnight of…
A reader wants to know if Colorado residents can buy more than one ounce per day at marijuana dispensaries.
Strains like Blueberry and Strawberry Cough have long been popular thanks to their distinct flavors, so Evolab has unveiled a new line of hash oil for fans of fruity cannabis. Just in time for the 7/10 holiday, the concentrate company has announced its Colors products, a line of CO2-extracted oils infused with naturally derived fruit flavors.
Dispensary shelves across Colorado are about to become more consistent now that a new distribution law has taken effect, according to several cannabis businesses owners.

The Trump administration has ordered members of the Justice Department’s Task Force on Crime Reduction and Public Safety to “undertake a review of existing policies” regarding federal marijuana law enforcement, among other things.

Even before Colorado allowed the first sale of recreational marijuana in January 2014, people had lots of questions about what was in store for the state. To answer those questions, we created our weekly Ask a Stoner column. But some queries demand more time and attention, including this one that…
Buying and trying cannabis around the state isn’t as social as drinking beer, and it may never be as fun of a field trip thanks to social consumption laws, but it’s time the dispensary scenes outside of Denver got some love. Here’s six towns outside of Denver that help make Colorado the poster child of pot.
Denver has prepared for the 7/10 holiday, with a colossal number of deals on concentrates around town through mid-July. Here’s a list of 7/10 events and some of Mile High’s best dispensary deals this month.
Colombian Gold deserves the accolades every other popular landrace enjoys. Its buds grow fat and tall in South American mountain ranges, tough against the intense sun, dry air and cold breezes of high altitude, making it a strong candidate for Colorado growers, both in the basement or outdoors. The high it produces boosts energy and happiness, yet is easy to manage during every stage, a quality many pure sativas tend to lack.
A reader asks our Stoner how to smoke hash without any dabbing tools.
Rick Wainwright, whose acquittal in a 2009 criminal case helped cement the concept that Colorado’s six-plant threshold for medical marijuana patients can be expanded, is suing Colorado governor John Hickenlooper and state attorney general Cynthia Coffman over a new law that tries to limit large home grows under the theory that they may be part of the illegal gray and black markets for cannabis. Wainwright sees the legislation as a stealth effort to target and criminalize law-abiding MMJ caregivers like him.
Nevada became the fourth state to open recreational marijuana dispensaries July 1, following the footsteps of Colorado, Washington, Oregon and Alaska. As newly liberated cannabis consumers flock to dispensaries for some of Nevada’s first legal herb, media reports are already showing the state is experiencing growing pains Colorado’s cannabis industry can relate to.
Sweet Leaf had a very good 4/20. So good, in fact, that the owners of the Colorado dispensary company told vice president Nichole West to plan a big thank-you party for the cannabis industry. And this summer, it’s hosting invite-only parties at the Metlo.
Thanks to Initiative 300, Denver could soon have cannabis-friendly yoga classes.
On the Fourth of July, it’s time to celebrate our liberties — including the right to possess and consume marijuana in Colorado. Take that, Jeff Sessions!
A decade after dispensaries first appeared on the Colorado scene, they continue to morph. While a few of the original stores remain, homebased chains are growing.
Recent studies show that support for legalization, and appreciation of marijuana in general, crosses party lines. There’s no gender gap, nor is there class warfare: The majority of all Americans favors the end of pot prohibition….except for this reader.
