Why One Dispensary Wants to Grow Weed in an Abandoned JCPenney
A Michigan weed dispensary wants to start growing marijuana in abandoned JCPenney. It's one of the cannabis headlines we discuss with Green Rush Daily's Chloe Harper Gold. She tells us all about the dispute, and how retailers are responding to the wave of dispensaries setting up shop at malls around the country.
Then, we discuss the growing demand for branding in the legal marijuana industry. With so many new products hitting the market, it's becoming more important than ever to stand out through packaging and design. She also tells us how the industry is handling the issue of false-advertising.
Finally, we breakdown a new ad campaign out of Canada that's warning against driving while smoking pot. An agency is creating weed strain names like "Slammer Time" and "Kourtroom Kush" to show the dangers of driving while stoned. We discuss what it's going to take to prevent the very real issue of using cannabis and driving.
