b"Jane Alcorn is Dean and Professor, College of Pharmacy and Nutrition at the University of Saskatchewan, and joined me for a very informative conversation about the groundbreaking research they are doing. From a study involving children who's monthly seizures disappeared to the roadblocks they face in studying the plant. There have been some interesting anecdotal evidence and Jane hopes to provide actual research into the plant to provide medicine and also dispel some of the misconceptions about the plant - good and bad. \\n\\n\\nChris Ianson is our educator and a Regional Manager with Plantlife Cannabis. Each week on Know Your Buds, we explore a different cultivar and make recommendations for what level of cannabis user it fits with based on their level of experience. Cafe Racer from Farmstead is on the menu this week, a 70-30 sativa that is just shy of 20% THC. Some awesome terpenes, and a terrific and tasty lineage makes this a terrific cultivar for a wake 'n bake. It's also really pretty to look at, terrific, bright pistils and trichome city. \\n\\nThe Cannabis Question is about your bucket list place to get high and What Pairs Well with Cannabis is nature walks."
