Some want to directly own licensed businesses, while others prefer to keep the industry at an arm’s length and merely profit from it.

Now, its time to review an eighth of 8 Inch Bagel flower. 8 Inch Bagel is an indica-leaning hybrid cross of GMO and Project 4516.

There is too much weed in Oregon. There is not enough weed in Oregon. Allow me to explain. On February 1, the OLCC released its 2025 legislative report on local, regulated marijuana supply. We get these reports every two years, as required by ORS 475C.529. They tend to be downers. And this one could be the worst one yet. The report came in as expected; which is to say, both supply and demand are trending badly for Oregon operators.
