ʻOiai ua ulu nui ka ʻoihana CBD i kāna mau makahiki mua, ʻaʻole ʻike nā mea kūʻai aku i nā kumu CBD. ʻO nā huaʻōlelo e like me ke kiko ākea, kikoʻī piha, hoʻokaʻawale, a me ka hoʻoilo hoʻoilo e like me nā huaʻōlelo puke puke maloʻo e hāʻawi ʻole i nā hōʻailona i ke ʻano o ia mea. 

"ʻIke au i nā ʻōmole he nui i ʻōlelo ʻia CO2-extracted. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻaʻohe mea mālama, "wahi a Leah Lakstins, nāna i hana i kahi ʻoihana e hoʻonaʻauao ai i nā mea kūʻai aku a me nā mea ʻoihana e pili ana i ka ʻoihana hou.

ʻOi aku ka koʻikoʻi ma mua o ka hoʻomaopopo ʻana i nā huaʻōlelo huaʻōlelo, ʻaʻole ʻike ka hapa nui o nā mea kūʻai cannabidiol i ka ʻike koʻikoʻi, e like me pehea e hiki ai i ka CBD ke launa pū me nā lāʻau lapaʻau ʻē aʻe a i ʻole. hiki ke hopena i ka ho'āʻo lāʻau ʻole. A ʻo ka poʻe ʻoihana hou i ka ʻoihana hemp e like me ka kuhi hewa ʻole. 

ʻO ia ke kumu i hoʻomaka ai ʻo Lakstins ʻO Higher Ed Hemp Tours ma waho o Austin, Texas kahi i hāʻawi aku ai i nā huakaʻi alakaʻi no ka poʻe e ʻimi nei e hoʻomaka i kahi ʻoihana hemp, a me nā huakaʻi kaʻa kaʻa pāʻina no nā hui bachelorette, huakaʻi, a me nā mea pā cannabis.

Ma mua o Higher Ed Hemp, aia ʻo Lakstins i ka ʻoihana pā hale. E like me nā mea ʻē aʻe, ua hoʻoikaika ʻia ʻo ia e ka hiki o CBD. Ua komo ʻo ia a me kāna hoa puhi paka ʻo Cynthia Morales i ka hana ʻana ma mua o ka ʻike ʻana i ka nui o ka nele o ka hoʻonaʻauao CBD. 

"Ua ʻike mākou ʻaʻole maopopo i nā mea kūʻai aku CBD. Paʻakikī nā mea kūʻai aku, a ʻaʻole maopopo i kā lākou poʻe limahana e pili ana i ia mea, "wahi āna.

Ma muli o ka hui a me ke kumu o ka huakaʻi, e lawe ʻo Lakstins i ka poʻe i hele i nā hale kūʻai kūʻai a me nā hanana ʻē aʻe e pili ana i ka cannabis, e like me ka makahiki. La hānau o Eeyore pōʻai pahu a i ʻole ka cannabis a me ka icon ʻāina, ʻO ke kiʻi o Willy Nelson.

"Kahea mākou iā Edutainment," wahi āna. "ʻO ka hoʻonaʻauao, akā ʻaʻole nui. Pono mākou e hoʻomau i ka leʻaleʻa.

No nā poʻe hou e ʻimi nei e komo i ka ʻoihana, e kū lākou i nā mahiʻai a me nā hale hana e hōʻike i ka ʻaoʻao o ka hana.

"Ke hoʻohenehene nei mākou e kapa ʻia mākou ʻo Don't Grow Hemp Tours no ka mea hele mai ka poʻe a hele, 'E ulu ana au i 10,000 ʻeka [hemp],' a ua like mākou, 'Akā no ke aha? E nānā kākou i kēia hana holoʻokoʻa.'”

ʻAʻole hoʻāʻo ʻo Lakstins e uhaʻi i nā manaʻo nui, lawe wale i nā kānaka i lalo i ka honua. He waiwai nui ka ʻoihana CBD, e ʻimi ana i nā ʻoihana me ka liʻiliʻi o ka ʻike cannabis mai kahi mamao a ākea. Ma ke ano maoli. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia he 80 pakeneka ʻo Higher Ed i hele mai i ka makahiki i hala. ʻO ka Philippines, Thailand, Mexico, a me South Korea i hōʻoia hou i ka CBD, a hōʻike ʻo Lakstins iā lākou i ke ʻano o ka ʻoihana CBD. 

"ʻAʻole ia e hoʻolei hou i kahi hōʻailona e ʻōlelo ana ʻo CBD a e loaʻa kālā ʻoe," wahi āna. “… ʻO ka hoʻohui kū pololei kahi e hele ai ka hapa nui o ia mea i ka wā e hiki mai ana. ʻO ia ka mea maʻalahi loa a me ka maʻamau.

ʻO ka hoʻohui pololei ʻana e mālama i ke kumukūʻai a hāʻawi i ka mana hou aʻe i ka huahana hope, he mea koʻikoʻi. Hele mai ka poʻe e hilinaʻi i nā hopena kūikawā, a inā e loli kēlā, hiki i kahi brand ke hōʻino i ko lākou inoa. Paipai ʻo Lakstins i ka poʻe e ʻimi nei e haki i ka honua hemp e ʻimi i kahi niche ākea e like me ke ʻano o ka nohona, nā haʻuki, nā holoholona, ​​​​meaʻai a me nā mea inu, a i ʻole ke olakino a me ka maikaʻi. E ʻae ia i nā hōʻailona e hone i ko lākou ʻike me ka ʻole o ka hoʻokaʻawale ʻana i kahi kumu kūʻai. 

Akā ʻo ka mea mua, hoʻoikaika ʻo Lakstins i ke koʻikoʻi o nā limahana hemp i ʻike maikaʻi i ka ʻoihana - ka ʻōlelo, ka ʻepekema, ke kaʻina hana. 

"ʻO ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana i ka hui he ʻāpana nui ia o ka kūleʻa no ka mea kūʻai. Pono mākou e akaka loa me kā mākou hui no ka mea ʻo lākou ka poʻe ma ka laina mua e aʻo ana i ka mea kūʻai aku a alakaʻi i kēlā ʻike, "wahi āna. "E lilo ʻoe i kāpena o kou moku, a e hoʻomaopopo ʻoe e hana ana ʻoe i ka pono o ka mea kūʻai aku, i hiki iā mākou ke aʻo a ulu pū." 

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Lakstins i nā mea ʻai hemp D9 e hoʻokau i ka ʻoihana hemp i kahi pae aʻe, ʻoi aku hoʻi i nā mokuʻāina kahi i kū ʻole ai ka marijuana, e like me Texas. ʻO nā meaʻai D9 i loaʻa i ka Hemp mai nā mea kanu me ka liʻiliʻi o 0.3 pakeneka THC. 

ʻOiai ʻo ia he loophole kānāwai, ʻōlelo ʻo Lakstins, "ʻAʻohe hoʻopaʻapaʻa, e like me Delta 8, inā he synthetic a ʻaʻole paha. Ua ʻike maoli ʻia ia, aia maoli i loko o ka mea kanu, a hāʻawi iā ʻoe i ka hopena like, inā ʻaʻole like, o ka mea āu e loaʻa ai i kahi kūlana kanaka makua. 

ʻO ka mea hope loa, ʻōlelo ʻo ia e pono e hoʻonoho i nā māka iā lākou iho no ka pae aʻe: federal legalization. E ʻae ka legalization i ke komo ʻana i nā hale kūʻai pahu nui. Ma waho aʻe o nā mea inu a i ʻole nā ​​​​mea kumuhana, Target, Walmart, a me nā hale kūʻai nui ʻē aʻe i kānalua i ka ʻae ʻana i nā huahana CBD ma muli o ka ʻae ʻole o ka FDA. 

"I ka manawa e wehe ʻia ai kēia a ua like ka FDA, "Maikaʻi, ʻoluʻolu ʻoe," e noho ana nā Colgates, nā Johnsons a me Johnsons, ka Proctor a me Gambles.

ʻO ke ʻano, ready e kiʻi i nā lama i loaʻa mua. He hana hou ia, wahi a Lakstins. ʻO nā hui lāʻau lapaʻau koʻikoʻi e kāpae i ka hoʻokūkū. Ma kahi o kēia mau hui nui i hoʻolaʻa ʻia e kiʻi i nā hōʻailona cannabis. 

"No laila e kū i ke poʻo a me nā poʻohiwi ma luna o ka lehulehu, e hoʻonui i kāu kālā a mākaukau e loaʻa," wahi āna. “He mau manawa hihiu. The wild west, so welcome to the party.”
