Legal marijuana created thousands of jobs in Colorado

 
[Source: Vox.com]

Marijuana dispensaries characterize it as a bit of a gold rush: the sudden swarm of thousands of people from in and out of Colorado trying to get into the state's new recreational marijuana industry.

"Everybody's expanding right now," Elan Nelson, business consultant for Medicine Man, one of the largest marijuana shops in Denver. "Really, we're just trying to keep up with demand."

Since retail sales of recreational marijuana began in January, the state has seen a small boom in jobs. The Marijuana Industry Group (MIG) estimates there are currently about 10,000 people directly involved with marijuana, with 1,000 to 2,000 joining in the past few months and more expected as high demand for recreational marijuana continues. MIG says it's hard to separate how many of those 10,000 jobs are tied to recreational marijuana and which are exclusively on the medical side, but at least a few thousand jobs came during and after the preparation and start of recreational sales.

"The Cream of the Crop" as We Rise to the Top - MMJ Review

[Source: electicauntjemima9 - March 24, 2014]

"The best MMJ in the state lives here. Even though the prices are sky high Boulder prices there are ALWAYS some wicked specials that can get you into something good for very little investment.
Enough about money…

NBWC has by far the best medical products for anyone looking for high CBD flowers (Cannatonic) and the incomparable Otto Shatter which can be 60% CBD!!!

The store always has high quality buds and they ALWAYS come as huge nugs or they are discounted accordingly as popcorn or skittles. This is the holy grail, the highly sought after Colorado bud that has become legendary over the last few years. I cannot recommend this dispensary highly enough, by far the highest quality bud and most knowledgeable staff you will find. 

Did I mention they have a HUGE selection of products? From four grades of flowers to a whole galaxy of waxes, shatters, moon rocks, edibles, and pens. There is always a good mix of indicas and sativas available and this is one of the only dispensaries that consistently carries a range of hybrids at a reasonable price, and also knows what they are!

The best, and I do mean the best, strains live at NBWC, the list reads like a veritable walk of fame: Strawberry Cough, LA Woman, Mazir I Sharif, Qrazy Train, Sweet Sweet, Cherry AK, some of these are in very high demand and never seem to be available at other dispensaries but are never in short supply here!

Stop in, you won't be disappointed."

Boulder County set to see first recreational pot shop blossom Tuesday

 

[Source: Denver Post]

Karing Kind, a mile north of Boulder, appears likely to be the first marijuana store that will open to the general public in Boulder County.

Owner Dylan Donaldson said he has an appointment to pick up his state license at 8 a.m. Tuesday and that he will open what had been a medical marijuana dispensary to the broader public "as soon as I can drive back from Denver."

Donaldson didn't set out to have Karing Kind be the first. It had appeared that honor would go to The Canary's Song in Nederland, which got its state approval in December and its local license Jan. 21.

However, that store ran into a number of logistical hurdles, including not being able to get product tags from the state, and it's not clear when it will open.

Colorado first state in country to finalize rules for recreational pot

[Source: John Ingold, The Denver Post]

In 136 small-type pages, Colorado this week became the first state in the country to adopt final rules for recreational marijuana businesses.


The rules, released late Monday, cover everything from pot shop licensing to inventory tracking to marijuana packaging to advertising. They also represent the most comprehensive effort to date to take the once all-illegal marijuana market and harness it into what supporters say will be controlled, refined legitimacy.

Applications to open a recreational marijuana store can be filed starting in only three weeks. The first stores are expected to open around Jan.1, 2014.


Among the highlights of the rules:

• All marijuana stores, cultivation facilities and marijuana-infused products makers must be licensed and pay fees ranging from $2,750 to $14,000.
• Until October 2014, recreational marijuana stores must grow themselves almost all the pot they sell.
• All businesses must use the state's forthcoming online inventory tracking program to document their marijuana's journey from cultivation to processing to sale.

"Tried the rest, found the BEST!!!"

[Review by: nytr4splant, August 7, 2013]

"Wow, I can't say enough about this place. This is the best weed in town by far. The LA woman is KILLER! It is super long lasting and has an awesome classic Indica high. The prophet and OG Cheese are top notch as well. I am curious about the other strains but frankly I can't bring myself to try anything else. The prices are above average, but the given the quality it is a bargain. Plus they have daily specials that bring things down, and they give you 50 dollars off for every 500 you spend. The staff is super chill. Nick (I think he is the manager), is quick with a recommendation and asks what you thought the next time you come in. All in all I have yet to find anything wrong with the place and will give it my business as long as I am in Boulder."

Recreational Marijuana Sales Banned In More Than Two Dozen Colorado Cities

 
[Source: HuffingtonPost]

Although Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper signed several historic measures to implement marijuana legalization in the state, establishing Colorado as the world's first legal, regulated and taxed marijuana market for adults back in May, many of the Centennial State's cities are banning retail legal weed.

On Tuesday, Colorado Springs, the state's second largest city, is expected to vote to ban retail recreational marijuana stores, The Associated Press reports. Four of nine Colorado Springs City Council members have already said they will vote against retail weed stores. But even if legal marijuana sales are approved, Mayor Steve Bach has vowed to veto recreational pot shops in the city limits.

The City Council could just ban recreational marijuana sales altogether or allow marijuana sales but also pass a moratorium on opening pot shops until after Colorado voters weigh in on approving tax rates for recreational marijuana in the state this November. But according to the Gazette, Bach has said he'd even veto the moratorium option.

"This is so important to our community and in our best interest that I will respectfully need to veto anything short of opting out," Bach said in a Gazette report. 

Recreational pot sales in Colorado cities that opt-in can begin on Jan. 1, 2014
