Here is rough guide that should help you with finding the right temperature to make rosin from your medical marijuana buds: Lower temperatures (250°F- 300°F) = more flavor/terpenes, less yield, end material is more stable (shatter-like consistency) Higher temperatures (300°F- 335°F) = less flavor/terpenes, more yield, end material is less stable (sap-like consistency) Some extraction artists claim the best way to make Rosin is at 302°F (150ºC), with 4-6 seconds of pressure, using just 0.25 gram samples in each run — but this process has not been confirmed by Medical Jane or any other official studies.

A single definition of landrace can sometimes be hard to come by, but it generally refers to a strain that was never bred systematically. Instead, after years of isolation and inbreeding, the plants begin to exhibit the same characteristics. Essentially, what this means, is that a landrace is a local variety of cannabis that has adapted to the environment of its geographic location. This accounts for genetic variation between landrace strains, which have been crossbred to produce the cannabis variety we see today. Click here to learn more.

You need a valid California ID (state ID card or state license) and proof of your status as a medical cannabis patient. If you bring a medical ID card issued by the California Medical Cannabis Patient ID Center (CMCP), or the state of California, most dispensaries will honor it on the spot. If you only have a doctor’s recommendation, the dispensary will simply need to call and verify it through your doctor’s office. Click here to learn more.

Now, what if you don’t have hair on your head that is at least an inch and a half? Well, in that case, companies can test underarm, leg, or chest hair. Occasionally, they even test beard hair. They cannot, however, get the specimen of hair from any other place on your body. If you shave from head to toe, there will not be enough hair to perform the test. No hair means you can’t get a hair drug test. Click here to learn more.

Hair drug testing will find traces of marijuana use much farther back in time than urine drug testing. In fact, when you ingest cannabis (or any drugs), its compounds make their way into the hair follicle through the blood stream, and then into the strands themselves, where they stay for quite some time. Hair grows at a rate of approximately .5 inches per month. So, in theory, if your hair was 18 inches long, and you tested the ends of the strands, then you could find drugs consumed more than 3 years ago… But, don’t panic. No employer tests the …

Flushing your system for an upcoming drug test involves putting large amounts of liquids (not including alcoholic beverages) into your body so that the metabolites will be washed away faster. Note: this should be done with extreme caution. Although this may be an effective method, it can also be dangerous. Ingesting too much water can cause water poisoning and can make you very ill or even cause death. Cranberry juice is a natural diuretic and will help flush your system faster than water alone. Coffee and tea also act as diuretics. But remember, if your urine is overly diluted, …

There is a lot wrong with urine drug testing — Privacy: Urine tests intrude on intimate bodily privacy. Mass drug screening violates the privacy of the majority of responsible employees in order to spot a minority of alleged drug abusers, many of whom are in fact not drug abusers at all. Government-imposed drug testing may be restricted by the 4th Amendment to the Constitution, which forbids unreasonable search and seizure and requires “probable cause” for search warrants. However, the 4th Amendment does not generally apply to tests by private employers. Accuracy: No test is infallible. Surveys of drug testing …

Yes, a legislature reschedule marijuana for medical purposes under state law, although this is largely a symbolic gesture. Rescheduling medical marijuana statewide does not protect patients from criminal prosecution under federal law or allow doctors in that state to legally prescribe the drug. Click here to learn more.

No. Unfortunately, all medical marijuana research must first get NIDA approval and receive funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Click here to learn more.

Yes, however the medical marijuana for the study must be sourced from the federal National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). Between 1978 and 1986, NIDA distributed medical marijuana to six state research programs. Most recently, NIDA provided marijuana to a California statewide medical marijuana research program. The preliminary results of this research is available here. No additional state-sponsored research is pending. Click here to learn more.
