What happens when you walk into a legal recreational marijuana dispensary

While pot may be legal in Colorado, the idea of purchasing marijuana in a store may still be something of a mystery to many people. CNBC went to a dispensary to find out how it all works.

    Nice video content! Sorry for the intrusion, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you ever tried – Mackorny Marijuana Paradise Blueprint (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is a smashing exclusive product for giving up smoking weed without the hard work. Ive heard some great things about it and my cousin at last got excellent results with it.



  22. BD tookie on October 7, 2019 at 10:54 pm

    For some odd reason I’m really not getting a good vibe from the guy behind the counter I just don’t like him for some odd reason



  23. Mary Antonio on October 7, 2019 at 10:55 pm

    is every legal shop like this? It reminded me of getting in to a strip club, the way they check id and then let you in a shady looking door.



  24. Beth Joyner on October 7, 2019 at 10:59 pm

    These dispensaries are owned by corporations. Corporations now own the cannabis industry. Their goal is to take over the industry so that they can control the uncontrolled… potheads. Along with legalizing, they’ve create a "new corporate pot" that is grown with PGR’s, blasted, and then sprayed with something that makes you almost trip out. Zero trichomes, zero good effects (only bad/weird effects). Haven’t found "normal" stuff in years now. Also, a huge surge in CBD which was researched and created the Jewish (plus K2 which we all know is HORRIBLE .. spice is not nice!)

    psychosis

    POSTED MARCH 07, 2011, 11:03 AM , UPDATED NOVEMBER 30, 2011, 2:28 PM

    Contributor, Harvard Health

    Teenagers and young adults who use marijuana may be messing with their heads in ways they don’t intend.
    Evidence is mounting that regular marijuana use increases the chance that a teenager will developΒ psychosis, a pattern of unusual thoughts or perceptions, such as believing the television is transmitting secret messages. It also increases the risk of developingΒ schizophrenia, a disabling brain disorder that not only causes psychosis, but also problems concentrating and loss of emotional expression.
    InΒ one recent studyΒ that followed nearly 2,000 teenagers as theyΒ οΏΌbecame young adults, young people who smoked marijuana at least five times were twice as likely to have developed psychosis over the next 10 years as those who didn’t smoke pot.
    Another new paperΒ concluded that early marijuana use could actually hasten the onset of psychosis by three years. ThoseΒ most at riskΒ are youths who already have a mother, father, or sibling with schizophrenia or some other psychotic disorder.
    Young people with a parent or sibling affected by psychosis have a roughly one in 10 chance of developing the condition themselvesβ€”even if they never smoke pot. Regular marijuana use, however, doubles their riskβ€”to a one in five chance of becoming psychotic.
    In comparison, youths in families unaffected by psychosis have a 7 in 1,000 chance of developing it. If they smoke pot regularly, the risk doubles, to 14 in 1,000.
    For years, now, experts have been sounding the alarm about a possible link between marijuana use and psychosis. One of the best-known studies followed nearly 50,000Β young Swedish soldiersΒ for 15 years. Those who had smoked marijuana at least once were more than twice as likely to develop schizophrenia as those who had never smoked pot. The heaviest users (who said they used marijuana more than 50 times) were six times as likely to develop schizophrenia as the nonsmokers.
    So far, this research shows only anΒ associationΒ between smoking pot and developing psychosis or schizophrenia later on. That’s not the same thing as saying that marijuanaΒ causesΒ psychosis.
    This is how research works.Β Years ago, scientists first noted an association between cigarette smoking and lung cancer. Only later were they able to figure out exactly how cigarette smoke damaged the lungs and other parts of the body, causing cancer and other diseases.
    The research on marijuana and the brain is at a much earlier stage. We do know thatΒ THC, one of the active compounds in marijuana, stimulates the brain and triggers other chemical reactions that contribute to the drug’s psychological and physical effects.
    But it’s not clear how marijuana use might lead to psychosis. One theory is that marijuana may interfere with normal brain development during the teenage years and young adulthood.
    The teenage brain is still a work in progress. Between the teen years and the mid-20s, areas of the brain responsible for judgment and problem solving are still making connections with the emotional centers of the brain. Smoking marijuana may derail this process and so increase a young person’s vulnerability to psychotic thinking. (You can read more about how the adolescent brain develops inΒ this article from theΒ Harvard Mental Health Letter.)
    While the research on marijuana and the mind has not yet connected all the dots, these new studies provide one more reason to caution young people against using marijuanaβ€”especially if they have a family member affected by schizophrenia or some other psychotic disorder. Although it may be a tough concept to explain to a teenager, the reward of a short-time high isn’t worth the long-term risk of psychosis or a disabling disorder like schizophrenia.

    Why are they so strict with marijuana and at bars or a liquor store there is no security guard at the front checking ID and there is no limit of alcohol you can carry



  31. The Hustle Mastery on October 7, 2019 at 11:08 pm

    Need to try this out.



  32. Grim don’t eat Pussy on October 7, 2019 at 11:08 pm

  35. Awakening Enthusiast on October 7, 2019 at 11:17 pm

    Maximum purchase of 7 grams, what’s to stop you from going from one place to the next? So why even worry about it?



  36. Sketch it's on October 7, 2019 at 11:17 pm

  38. brendoggy nolsy on October 7, 2019 at 11:18 pm

    If you depend on it then you probably go to work with it, also power tools and weed probably most likely do not mix



  39. Joel Schmierer on October 7, 2019 at 11:18 pm

    i like how he makes sure the reporter smells it



  40. Alex Povolotski on October 7, 2019 at 11:20 pm

    That’s funny it’s cash only. Canada is the opposite – cash sales are prohibited for tracking of sales purposes.



  41. Conor Mcgregor on October 7, 2019 at 11:24 pm
