Uniting the Great Divide Many years ago when I was a “baby activist” I had no idea of the politics of cannabis activism. I was aware and prepared for the un-educated snide remarks and hate grenades launched out of fear. The DEA and Police did not faze me. I was fearless. The first year of my cannabis activism was F U N. Myself, along with my friends and fellow activist, we spent a year creating a movement in our area. We had rallies, petition drives, picnics, and too many education rallies t...

Colorado recently attempted to pass multiple Bills that would endanger the cannabis community as a whole. The first bill that attracted the public eye was a "conversation" about a bill that would limit caregivers to only being allowed to grow up to 6 plants per patient and no more than 30 per caregiver. This Bill would also require Doctors to violate the Doctor / patient confidentiality agreement by requiring the Doctor to go into full detail to the State about the patients medical conditions. C...

It has been a sad few days here at iBAKE University Online My Harlequin grow that is in total Veg, has an infestation of Spider Mites!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Normally I would be sad, destroy the whole grow and start over.....But these are my high C-B-D Harlequin plants for Cancer and Leukemia Patients so the battle has begun. Since they are in veg, I have quite a few choices. I try to be 100% organic, so it gets really difficult to do a fast aggressive trea...

I’m not going to give you that hippie garbage that pot is harmless, but it’s not heroin. It’s a drug and like any drug there are risks with using it. Started early, habitual use has been linked to decreased neurological activity over decades, and even psychosis and depression if prone to them. But don’t act like the chance of unearthing predisposed psychological problems is anything like the permanent bodily and psychological harm that results from heroin or alcohol abuse. And don’t preten...

This is the story of iBake Denver. So for all those out there who say we need to make it nicer or we need to do this and that and make changes..... look where we started. You should be very proud... I am. I don't want it to change. I have made it the way that I think it should be. This is how community was on our commune. This is how community should be in the United States and the rest of the world. I don't want to change it and be fancy. I'm never going to allow that to happen. I will sit he...

The black market for weed in Colorado is still thriving, despite the existence of retail shops that sell it legally, according to exclusive interviews with growers, dealers and weed industry experts. There are a number of reasons that people still call their dealers instead of visiting one of the state’s 37 new Amsterdam-style dispensaries, which opened for business Jan. 1. Number one is the price: retail weed in Colorado sells for a whopping $65 or $70 an eighth, depending on quality. Those h...

How did you ring in your New Year? In Colorado, we celebrated the end of the era of marijuana prohibition with massive pot parties through the hazy state. Thousands upon thousands flocked to Denver to be one of the first to purchase marijuana legally in over a century. Safe to say, it wasn’t just any New Year. iBAKE Denver was Colorado’s first legal smoke shop. Not just the kind of smoke shop that sells smoking accessories, but a more of the Amsterdam coffee shop smoke shop. Although the sale ...

U.S. treasury and law enforcement agencies will soon issue regulations opening banking services to state-sanctioned marijuana businesses even though cannabis remains classified an illegal narcotic under federal law, Attorney General Eric Holder said on Thursday.Holder said the new rules would address problems faced by newly licensed recreational pot retailers in Colorado, and medical marijuana dispensaries in other states, in operating on a cash-only basis, without access to banking services or ...

America's first (known) hemp harvest in more than fifty years began this month in southeastern Colorado. This past spring, following last year's passage of Amendment 64, which legalized small amounts of marijuana for adults and paved the way for industrial hemp production, farmer Ryan Loflin planted 55 acres of marijuana's sober sister. Last week, hemp advocates from across the country came to watch as Loflin and others harvested the first plants by hand. "It felt very historic," says advocate L...

YOU CAN FIND THE 420 NURSES AT THE iBAKE BOOTH!!! The 4/20 rally is two weeks away and this year there will be big changes at Civic Center Park, according to organizers.

Butane Hash Oil’s Quality Is Largely Determined By The Quality Of Vacuum Oven Used During The Purging Process The popularity level of butane hash oil (BHO) is growing exponentially. BHO (or ‘dabs’) has been around for a long time, but in the last five years it seems like everyone I know is either consuming BHO for the first time, or consuming it more, or they making it themselves. I have a handful of friends that I would consider to be true BHO experts. My criteria for BHO expert is simple – if ...

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) came out in favor of medical marijuana Thursday in a Las Vegas Sun interview, becoming one of the highest elected officials in the U.S. government to give his support. “If you’d asked me this question a dozen years ago, it would have been easy to answer — I would have said no, because [marijuana] leads to other stuff,” Reid was quoted as saying. “But I can’t say that anymore.” “I think we need to take a real close look at this,” he added. “I think t...
