“’Tis the season of ‘High holidays!’” cannabis lovers might well exclaim this time of year. But, since that term is reserved for two solemn holidays in the Jewish faith, let’s just stick to “Happy Holidaze!” or some such appropriate expression this Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanza season.
And, in that spirit, it’s time to search for just the right gift for that person in your life who joyfully indulges in cannabis and CBD/CBG products. After all, they’re now socially acceptable, to say nothing of commercially ubiquitous. Many are also available with special holiday prices.
So, forget the CDs, books and gift certificates you’ve gotten your boss in the past. Shelve the earrings and sweaters for Sis. Ditch those cutesy socks and ugly Christmas sweaters for your BFF. Instead,consider the really fun stuff — like the gift ideas described below: (Check product websites to see if they’re available in your state.)

George Harrison's iconic album All Things Must Pass is the basis for this low-THC "Dad Grass" ... [+]
