The Veriheal team got a chance to see what the future of group smoke sessions may look like when Denver’s OASIS dispensary invited us out to their Master’s event. Group smoke sessions are as ingrained in cannabis culture as 420, Cheech and Chong movies, and the munchies. These smoke sessions typically take place in not-so-glamourous locations like your friend’s living room, backyard, or —if you’re lucky — their garage.

The U.S. cannabis industry is still in its infancy, even though states began engaging with legalization in one form or another in the late 1990s. Today, many opportunities exist for individuals and businesses that want to engage in the industry. Some want to directly own licensed businesses, while others prefer to keep the industry at an arm’s length and merely profit from it.

As a big fan of lemon-heavy strains, I imagined Lemon Tree would be the perfect personal cultivar. After sampling and growing a cut, it’s been a “don’t meet your heroes” lesson with the flavor leaning more into tangy diesel than tangy lemon. While my Lemon Tree didn’t deliver what I was looking for, I’ve still developed a love for the strain. Legends has added Gelonade, a Lemon Tree descendant, to its lineup.

What’s so scary about THC (tetrahydrocannabinol)?
