[@bmejia220]

How to build a cannabis business - do your research and stay commited!

[@joshwells3247]

Hey! he has extensive experience with plant medicine 😂

[@getsmartquick]

Your observations is true to some level with the fact that a lot of the mass affluent like this industry

[@grostaff4612]

J - it’s not about being rich, but letting people live a RICH life because they are happier and healthier people. Money isn’t the point. The point is access to medicine we all have the right to as humans, and it’s being denied. It’s an issue. Companies and people are getting rich off of opioids. It’s an epidemic.

[@pyramidion5911]

You have to be really rich and at least a little lucky

[@bassman4201000]

Chad and his dad really hit it out of the park.

[@desertoasiscbd]

This was a great TedTalk. Thank you for bringing more awareness to the industry.

[@grostaff4612]

Thank you!

This is beautiful.

[@joeortega8824]

About to launch a CBD brand. This is really helpful and inspiring. Great video

[@kingkastro2954]

Can I get a job, it's not legal here but I've experienced a little bit of growing from friends and I got an image of how to mass produce it, I also love growing plants and have some idea of what to do, I just need the material and space to do it, I think I could bring something to ur company, I have anxiety and cbd helps and I'd love to see it be brought to others

[@BC-mq5kj]

Have unlaunched yet

[@orangeapple681]

How's the launch going Joe? I've been in the CBD game about six months up here in VA. Curious what your challenges have been.

[@brotherjoecarden7308]

With testing low levels of thc should be acceptable as it is one of the most beneficial cannabinoids for inflammation and chronic pain. I understand that it has psychoactive properties but it can also have strong healing properties including angiogenesis for tumors. I think a more indepth testing system that is specified to the individual's characteristics would be a positive idea.

[@grapeboi9256]

The psychoactive properties are 👍

[@grostaff4612]

100% agreed. Low TCH levels in my opinion are acceptable. However, insurance companies , public companies, and others will deny all fault or exposure due to this . Follow the money!

[@684darian]

High cbg/cbd is the move👌

[@pyramidion5911]

​@@684darianfull spectrum is better. Acting like one isolated compound is the only thing responsible for healing is just arrogant and certainly wrong.

[@684darian]

@@pyramidion5911 yeah of course full spectrum is the best option but cbg is really helpful for my grandmas crohns disease & helps relieve her cyatic nerve

[@mrbill0626]

Want to see cannabis legalized nationwide and replace prescription drugs? Vote LIBERTARIAN

[@BoneItis639]

yes

[@jenniferg6818]

In Maine. Wellness connection just brought on an ex phizer exec. They're suing Portland Maine over in state preference for licenses. Get them out! Buy local.

[@fromsheeptoshepherddog6695]

Well the key lies in understanding Natural Law. A Right is an action that does not initiate harm to another sentient being. Growing cannabis is a natural Right. Only the misguided order-followers are the problem since they think that moral is subjective

[@pyramidion5911]

No I just want to see it not be a criminal offense to use or grow.

[@mitchellsand2349]

I’m a cannabis grower if you have any questions please ask.

[@ArafatHossain-oy9ol]

Would love to have you email address. THANK YOU

[@vr.Isaac30]

Where did you start

[@pyramidion5911]

Do you like big buds?

[@dantesaint2619]

Everyone wants to come into this business for all the wrong reasons and try to hide it under “wanting to help people” when in reality they just want the money, and that is the main weapon that brings any business down to the foundation.

[@ruvenberger5979]

why not both? doctors do it, engineers do it, why shouldn't we?

[@grostaff4612]

That’s the point of self insurance for cannabis healthcare. It brings the cost down for the individual’s medical treatment. Unfortunately, we live in a world where money dictates your treatment. Particularly the level of care.

[@Skillsetgroup]

@@ruvenberger5979 well said.

There are really no certifications, many organizations are trying to make them. But there is no industry standard.

[@tokyostarfishofficial]

Shame on TED, this is a disingenuous title. Should be called "why mainstream health care should allow cannabis treatment to help fight mental illness". Which don't get me wrong, I 100% agree, but this video barely hits on tiny slivers, and only on the paperwork side (this guy is an IT company, not a cannabis business owner) but glosses over MASSIVE amounts of what is actually required to start a cannabusiness. Thumbs down for the click bait title.

[@orangeapple681]

I agree this is about some guys idea of a better industry, not a "how to do ___"

[@grostaff4612]

Jason, title could be way better. 100% agreed. But the shame is on me not on TED. I struggled with the title for a long time. I appreciate the constructive feedback. Thanks for listening 🙏

Lolololololololololololololololol.

[@codystiltner265]

Employers do not test for CBD.

[@grostaff4612]

Exactly, they test for all cannabis compounds. The point is to separate the compounds. California made this law, you can no longer test for CBD or THC. The point is to focus on the safety of the worker.

[@pyramidion5911]

​@@grostaff4612you want to separate the compounds so you can get CBD treated as a medical drug and start making big bucks off of insurance money. You're so greedy you make it obvious despite your cute little speech trying to dress up your intentions.

all i know when i go to the dispencerys naaaeeer my plaaaaaaaace of residency no cbd and the prices tripled in the last year

[@pyramidion5911]

You can order cbd online. Also you can usually just ask the manager at whatever dispo you go to if they can order the products you are after or something similar.

[@jayrokkfit]

Once you get past the first two minutes of patting yourself on the back... edit 4mins later

[@grostaff4612]

Clint was trying to establish his merits in a space where merits don't exist for a industry and plant that is federally illegal. Those that push the barriers in cannabis can only do so by the path they pave for others and the accomplishments they've made.

[@pyramidion5911]

​@@grostaff4612you make it sound so noble. Dudes just a suit, same as any other industry.

[@erinc8795]

I can’t get past the first 2:53. The “sorry MOM” was so cringey.

[@JW-ns8sl]

Methamphetamine is a Schedule II drug, not a Schedule I drug. Meth has medicinal purposes compared to Cannabis... *rolling eyes*

[@JW-ns8sl]

Desoxyn is prescribed to 6 year olds for ADHD

[@lazyboylabz]

Rarely.

[@grostaff4612]

You’re 100% correct. However, ironically, it should be a schedule one….

[@JoJoJoker]

Meth is not a schedule 1 drug. It's prescribed for ADHD & obesity.

[@Antichrist420666]

methamphetamine and amphetamines are different. An amphetamine is a class of an addictive stimulant drug, such as Adderall. Methamphetamine is its own stimulant drug with far worse effects on the body.

[@pyramidion5911]

​@@Antichrist420666yeah keep telling yourself that
