    Where do I sign! (Thanks OP, it's good to get this kind of info that still seems to be prohibited by the establishment here along with the product itself. And while other countries are making progress and doing science around it, all we get from our morons in charge is 'umm, duuuh, welll, more studies need to be done in order to blah blah blah…) ) anyway…..

    Edit: Just tried to sign up and they do require the following info, Name, Company Name, Job Title, Work phone number, Company street address.

      Personal / business Details are for signing up to TradePub.com (not for this Cannabis industry mag), which has different free offers on OzBargain (mainly computer related). As long as you provide email you can access, rest of details don't have to be accurate…

      As was already signed up, just needed to click Download - download link was sent in email.

      Now reading the very USA centred views of how to grow commercial crops, obtain loans to set up, "Beyond the Bud" & tourism potential of this "growing" industry.

      Quite interesting, if only from a theoretical perspective. Some ideas could be applied to other industries & crops. Handy info for potential investors.

      Don't understand why some are upset by an industry publication into a now becoming legal commercial (but controlled) crop in Oz.

          @pennypincher98:
          Some interesting articles on a disruptive commercial industry, even if this drug is not for you based on religious, or other entrenched belief. Many have a similar attitude to alcohol, but that industry is pretty important for Australia.

          This mag is about the industry, not personal use. Can't see personal use being decriminalize here soon, although some areas have allowed consumption & personal cultivation. There are known health risks with personal use (especially for those at risk of certain psychiatric illness, which may be set off by this or other drugs - often used to self-medicate).

          Medicinal trials of effectiveness in treatment will be important for commercialisation here.

        • pennypincher98 on 19/09/2018 - 10:42

          @Infidel: it's money into the industry, out of people's pockets!
          It's free for Ozbargainers - but once cannabis is legalised or whatever it brings money to the industry.

          Personally, I don't have a preference about it - if it helps people then why not. What I am concerned about is when medicinal turns into recreational. Do you know Coca-Cola is making a cannabis infused drink? (Or at least considering)

        • INFIDEL on 19/09/2018 - 10:46

          @pennypincher98:

          Do you know Coca-Cola is making a cannabis infused drink?

          You mean the Coca-Cola is going back to it's drug infused origins?😉
          Coca-Cola was named back in 1885 for its two “medicinal” ingredients: extract of coca leaves and kola nuts. Just how much cocaine was originally in the formulation is hard to determine, but the drink undeniably contained some cocaine in its early days.

          What I am concerned about is when medicinal turns into recreational.

          Coke said in a statement Monday that it is "closely watching" the growth of CBD, a non-psychoactive component in marijuana, as an ingredient in what it called functional wellness beverages.

          Won't someone think of the children… This ingredient is found in candies!😱

          Just like clothes & many other products made from the plant, there are many uses for products derived from the cannabis plant. The best rope & material was made from the plant, until it was demonised. Even US bank notes used to or do contain help fibres. That's a long history of non-drug uses. That is very worrying😉

          it's money into the industry, out of people's pockets! - like almost everything, especially our legal drugs like alcohol & tobacco.
          Quick - shut down OzBargain because weak people will spend their children's lunch money😉

          Coffee Houses were introduced by those campaigning against the evils of alcohol… Now that drug is everywhere - just enjoyed
          some😉

          Any drug will have it's opponents.
          Used in the right amount, for the right purpose, rather than for any (psychological) addiction - should be no different to use of all the other drugs.

          People have enjoyed & benefited from this drug (like alcohol) for a very long time. Our brain is designed with Cannabinoid receptors for it.
          But like Bill Clinton, I didn't inhale😀

    Im still skeptical about cannabis. My understanding is when you burn anything it creates a toxic by product. Surely inhaling anything toxic is bad for you. Maybe not in the short term, but long term effects ala cigarettes. Hrad to carry out a study over long term effects though, see what happens I guess.

    • Scab on 19/09/2018 - 08:12

      But you don't have to burn it.

      So then don't smoke it, put it in a cookie. :) Or the medical stuff is made into an oil which AFAIK wont even get you 'relaxed', though you might get a bit dizzy if you overdo it but I'll take that over chemo or seizures any day. But as for smoking it the studies have actually been done and what they found is that even though, as you say, the smoking has a lot of toxic stuff there was no increase in lung cancer is cannabis only smokers (those who mixed it with tobacco had different results and addictions..expectedly). As for long term effects, remember that hemp and cannabis were as common and cotton and coffee for thousands of years up until the last 80 or so when U.S. prohibition took hold. If there were going to be any problems then someone would have figured it out in all that time. And remember the problems don't come from the use of cannabis but rather from it's abuse.

        but I'll take that over chemo

        ? This wonder drug cures cancer now?

        But as for smoking it the studies have actually been done and what they found is that even though, as you say, the smoking has a lot of toxic stuff there was no increase in lung cancer is cannabis only smokers

        Got a link to these studies?
        Here's one that said it does increase the risk of lung cancer
        https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2516340/

        and from https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/the-british-journal-…

        Effects on the respiratory system
        The smoke from herbal cannabis preparations contains all the same constituents (apart from nicotine) as tobacco smoke, including carbon monoxide, bronchial irritants, tumour initiators (mutagens), tumour promoters and carcinogens (British Medical Association, 1997). The tar from a cannabis cigarette contains higher concentrations of benzanthracenes and benzpyrenes, both of which are carcinogens, than tobacco smoke. It has been estimated that smoking a cannabis cigarette results in approximately a five-fold greater increase in carboxyhaemoglobin concentration, a three-fold greater amount of tar inhaled and retention in the respiratory tract of one-third more tar than smoking a tobacco cigarette (Wu et al, 1988; Benson & Bentley, 1995).

        The probem with any studies is that most people (well in my experience) over the age of 20, smoke joints, rather then bongs, so they're using a tobacco and cannibis mix. So they'd have to do a long term study with groups smoking pure, mixed and placebo to find out. But if the above study is to be believed, the money would be on that it does increase your risk of lung cancer even more so then just plain cigarettes.

        As for long term effects, remember that hemp and cannabis were as common and cotton and coffee for thousands of years up until the last 80 or so when U.S. prohibition took hold. If there were going to be any problems then someone would have figured it out in all that time.

        Same can be said about Tobacco, so it mustn't be a problem either.

        the problems don't come from the use of cannabis but rather from it's abuse.

        you got that right.

        Unfortunately it's become another wonder drug/ super food where people just make up BS claims and because people want to believe, it gets passed off as fact. The only proven medical uses I'm aware of are for glaucoma as it can reduce the pressure in the eye, ease nausea (which is helpful for the effects of chemo), stimulate appetite (again helpful for chem, as the nausea tends to discourage them from eating and they need good nutrition to help rebuild their immune system).

        Of course what they don't tell you are the studies which show the increased risk of pyschosis (e.g. schizophrenia & depression - it appears to be more of a trigger to those suspectable, rather then a cause) https://www.bmj.com/content/325/7374/1212.full

          as is often the case, when people want to push their cause, they will accept supporting studies and ignore the rest. i dont like anything that modifies a persons normal behaviour, including excessive alcohol. i think im very conservative by todays standards lol

        • [Deactivated] on 19/09/2018 - 10:37

          @crazyhor77: yeah, I'm all for legalising most of these prohibited drugs. But there just needs to be proper facts (not the usual selective propaganda from both side), so people can assess the pros & cons before indulging.

          The one good thing about Cannabis is that it's more of a calmative, not a stimulant like alcohol, amphetamines, caffeine, etc So the users and abusers tend not to exhibit agrerssive or violent behaviour towards others. IMHO it should be in the same class of drug as alcohol, and I'm a drinker, not a smoker.

        • EightImmortals on 19/09/2018 - 11:41

          "? This wonder drug cures cancer now?"

          In some cases yes.

          "Got a link to these studies? "

          https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/large-study-finds…

          https://www.collective-evolution.com/2013/08/23/20-medical-s…

          Plenty more out there as well other ones that do not agree, dyor.

          "Same can be said about Tobacco, so it mustn't be a problem either."

          You misunderstood my point. I brought up those other common drugs as a comparison to how people used to see cannabis. That is, as just another day to day thing they used or not.

          "The only proven medical uses I'm aware of are for glaucoma as it can reduce the pressure in the eye, ease nausea (which is helpful for the effects of chemo), stimulate appetite (again helpful for chem, as the nausea tends to discourage them from eating and they need good nutrition to help rebuild their immune system)."

          Here's a few more for your list:

          https://www.canabomedicalclinic.com/10-common-conditions-med…

          "Of course what they don't tell you are the studies which show the increased risk of pyschosis (e.g. schizophrenia & depression - it appears to be more of a trigger to those suspectable, rather then a cause)"

          Yup. So people with a family history of psychosis (or are under 25) should probably avoid it. No argument there, but I would recommend the same for tobacco and alcohol as well.

      Smoking it is the most cost effective way of consuming Marijuana. Without prohibition there would be a decrease in smoking and increase in consumption of edibles and vaping of concentrates, etc I believe.

        • Cheaplikethebird on 19/09/2018 - 10:10

          Done many, many times. Edibles give a mellower, longer, body high but don't give as intense or immediate a kick as smoking does (IME). There's also the fact that most people don't have access to scraps and aren't keen to throw ~$150 worth of weed into cooking with the potential of ruining it.

      But seriously, like most industry publications, they charge what the market will pay. Ideas that may save money in production, investment, or attract new business would pay for its tax deductible cost.
