"In looking at medical use cannabis, there is the inevitable question of whether its recreational use should be legalised. The arguments are simple: legalise it and you control its safety; you squeeze out drug dealers and their menacing behaviour; we can collect taxes on it (that’ll help pay for the NHS’s recent funding boost!).

"There’s no doubt about it. CBD has potential to help you with tobacco/nicotine addiction and with the withdrawal period. Cannabidiol as a possible active treatment for nicotine and heroin addiction seems to be on the track of ushering in a bright future for the ones who are still fighting the battle with addiction."

Can CBD be a cure for nicotine withdrawal?

Cannabidiol, known affectionately as CBD, can help break nicotine addiction, but can it also help one get through withdrawal periods? The answer is a little more complicated than a simple “yes” or “no”. CBD works with endocannabinoid system in the body and is known to affect serotonin recept...

It is better to sell mild and medically safe versions of drugs that give a high than ones sold by gangsters that kill thousands."

Former Justice Secretary calls on UK to legalise drugs like heroin

"A team of 38 investigators have begun a national crackdown on county lines drugs gangs, which send children to provincial towns to sell heroin and crack cocaine. Ringleaders operate mobile phone hotlines to market the drugs to local users, with the young drugs mules conducting the sales.

"At this stage there is hope that CBD especially, and perhaps some synthetic cannabinoids, could be effective for treating some anxiety and mood disorders. However, currently the quality of the evidence is too low to provide clear evidence of any benefit. Currently no recommendations for clinical practice can be made.

"Modern cannabis greenhouses offer much of the cost-efficiency of outdoor operations while still incorporating a large part of the environment control capabilities found in indoor growing facilities. This is especially the case when greenhouse grows are paired with cutting-edge cultivation infrastructure and the expertise of experienced growers."

Greenhouses for Cost-efficient and Large-scale Cannabis Cultivation

Growth of commercial cannabis in North America has focused on large-scale cannabis cultivation by industry giants. However, we are now seeing cannabis companies retrofitting existing greenhouses to achieve the same product quality at much cheaper costs.
