CannabisTech – Details, episodes & analysis

Cannabis industry jobs, like many others, are in a constant state of flux as the nation struggles with inflation and economic uncertainty. Plenty of headlines coined the legal cannabis industry as “pandemic-proof.” However, as inflation continues to slow down spending, it has become painfully evident that the industry is not recession-proof, and many cannabis companies are taking a hard look at their bottom line.

Mold in marijuana is more than a business faux pas; it is a potential health hazard for consumers.

Mold on cannabis isn’t a new problem, but commercial production and over-crowded grow rooms are creating the perfect storm for pathogens. The birth of the marijuana industry has given rise to a deeper awareness of production pitfalls and potential health risks – not from the cannabis itself, but from unintentional microbial contamination.

Entheogens, including cannabis, faced one of their most restrictive environments in the 20th century. Now, as attitudes shift, several countries are investing in research using psilocybin mushrooms, MDMA, Ketamine, and other substances previously listed as some of the most dangerous materials in the country. With this shift comes a new wave of technological opportunity, and companies are poised to offer these substances to the public.

Advocates for cannabis and hemp legalization started their mission decades ago. Since then, hundreds have led the charge to change the stigmas and stereotypes associated with cannabis consumption and open the necessary pathways for the legal cultivation and production of these highly functional plants.

Recently the major enantiomer, or paired molecule, of THC was found in samples of low-THC fiber hemp from Europe. Such a report isn't surprising considering how biochemical processes work. However, this finding could cause a legal ripple capable of sending the hemp industry back to 2019.

Sonication, or ultrasonication, is a soundwave technology widely used in biofuels, pharmaceuticals, wastewater processing, and other major industries. It's also necessary for nanoemulsions and other nanoparticle production — which might sound familiar as it's now widely used within the cannabidiol (CBD) sector too.

If I could narrow down how technology can help cannabis businesses the most, it would have to be the unique ability of technology to expose what you don’t know. Technology is uniquely capable of taking data and turning it into valuable information that can be used to make decisions.

Cannabis cultivators are tasked with two monumental challenges: eradicate pathogens that threaten their yield, and implement crop management and antimicrobial solutions that are safe, effective, and compliant with state regulations.
