    Legalisation Backlash Claims, Hemp Rule Changes, Essex Gang Sentenced & Prehistoric Cannabis Breakthrough | Cannabis News 199

    In this week’s episode of High on Home Grown, we’re covering a mix of criticism, policy changes, crime reports, and some fascinating scientific developments: Macky opens with headlines warning that legalisation may have been a “big mistake,” as some health experts claim to be seeing worse outcomes. We take a closer look at the claims and the wider context behind the narrative. John brings news from the US, where a new Farm Bill proposal from a GOP committee chair aims to reduce regulatory burdens on the hemp industry. A move that could significantly affect producers, retailers, and the wider market. Smee reports on a major operation uncovered in Essex, where Albanian gang members have been jailed following the discovery of a large-scale cannabis grow. Another reminder of how organised crime continues to thrive in prohibition-driven markets. Dr. Margaret covers a strange aviation incident after British Airways crew members were reportedly taken to hospital following exposure to cannabis, raising questions about how the situation unfolded. And Billy wraps things up with a fascinating piece of science, as researchers successfully revived ancient cannabis enzymes. Potentially opening the door to new medical compounds and future therapeutic uses. Another packed episode covering the criticism, the progress, the science, and the strange stories shaping the cannabis conversation this week. 🌐 Website: https://highonhomegrown.com 💬 Discord: https://discord.gg/sqYGkF4xyQ 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/highonhomegrown

    £7.1M School Farm Bust | Cannabis Helps Young Girl Treat Epilepsy in the UK | Police Back Rescheduling | Opioid Use Drops When Cannabis is Legalised! | Cannabis News 198

    In this week’s episode of High on Home Grown, we’re covering major busts, powerful medical stories, and some interesting shifts in policy and public opinion: Macky starts with a huge find from the BBC, where police discovered a £7.1 million cannabis operation inside a derelict high school. It’s another example of the scale some underground grows are reaching, and the strange locations they’re turning up in. He also shares the touching story of a young girl whose family says medical cannabis has transformed her life, highlighting once again the real human impact behind the ongoing fight for better access. John brings political developments from the US, where Wisconsin senators have approved a Republican-led medical marijuana bill, even as Democrats continue pushing for broader recreational legalization. It’s a clear sign of how the conversation is evolving, even in more conservative states. We also look at an opinion piece explaining why many law enforcement officers are supporting Trump’s rescheduling move, a shift that shows attitudes are changing even within traditional enforcement circles. And Smee rounds things off with new research showing daily opioid use dropped by 9 to 11 percentage points following recreational legalization, adding to the growing evidence that legal access may play a role in reducing reliance on more dangerous substances. Another packed episode full of real-world impact, changing attitudes, and stories that show how fast the landscape continues to shift. 🌐 Website: https://highonhomegrown.com 💬 Discord: https://discord.gg/sqYGkF4xyQ 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/highonhomegrown

    The Most Iconic Cannabis Strains of All Time! The Genetics That Changed Growing Forever | Grow Guides Ep. 76

    In this week’s Grow Guides, we’re taking a trip through cannabis history and breaking down the most iconic strains of all time. The genetics that shaped modern growing, breeding, and consumption as we know it.

We also cover AK-47, Blueberry, Durban Poison, and Gorilla Glue #4, looking at where they came from, why they stood out, and how their influence is still felt in today’s genetics. This episode isn’t about hype or marketing, it’s about why these strains mattered. We discuss stability, flavour lineage, flavour, effects, and how each of these cultivars helped push growing techniques and breeding forward. Whether you’ve grown them, smoked them, or only heard the names whispered with reverence, this episode gives proper context to the strains that built the foundations of modern cannabis culture.

    Its All About the Biology, Ken Somerville! Cannabis and Spirituality, Organic Growing, Microbes, and Cannabis as a Medicine.

    In today’s interview, we sit down with Ken Somerville, host of the YouTube channel It’s All About the Biology. Ken shares his growing journey, his approach to cultivation, and the deeper spiritual connection he has developed through growing and using cannabis. We also talk openly about Ken’s health journey. He’s had several close encounters with death and has dealt with serious health issues along the way, and he explains how cannabis played a meaningful role in his recovery and ongoing wellbeing. It’s an honest, reflective conversation that goes far beyond growing techniques. This one runs a little longer than usual, but for good reason. It’s relaxed, thoughtful, and packed with perspective. So roll a couple of extra fat ones, settle in, and enjoy a genuinely insightful interview. Do you have any suggestions for guest on the show?

    Shocking Mental Health Stats After Legalisation | Cannabis Users Show Less Cognition Decline Than Non Users | Hospital Access Wins for Terminal Patients | Grow Room Explosion Risks | Cannabis News 197

    In this week’s episode of High on Home Grown, we’re digging into some serious research, real-world consequences, and important policy movement: Macky opens with a study shared by Cromag on Discord, looking at cannabis use before and after legalisation in Canada and how it intersects with mental health status. Published in The Lancet Regional Health, it’s a data-heavy piece that adds much-needed context to an often oversimplified debate. Dr. Margaret follows with another fascinating study suggesting that lifetime cannabis use may be linked to greater cognitive performance in aging populations. Challenging long-held assumptions about long-term effects and brain health. We also look at reports that “High January” is fuelling a cannabis boom, while experts simultaneously flag potential health concerns. A reminder that growth, access, and responsibility all need to move forward together. John brings positive news from Mississippi, where lawmakers have approved a bill allowing medical marijuana use in hospitals for terminally ill patients. A meaningful step toward compassion-led healthcare. And Smee closes with a sobering story from The Independent, where a man suffered life-changing burns following an explosion at a suspected cannabis farm. Something that makes the panel sceptical of this claim! Another packed episode blending science, policy, progress, and the risks that still come with prohibition-era realities. 🌐 Website: https://highonhomegrown.com 💬 Discord: https://discord.gg/sqYGkF4xyQ 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/highonhomegrown

    The Mental Side of Growing – How Overthinking, Impatience & Comparison Sabotage Your Grow | Grow Guides Ep. 75

    In this week’s Grow Guides, we step away from nutrients, lights, and equipment and focus on something just as important: the mentality of growing. We talk about how obsessing over plants too much often causes more harm than good, and why overcorrecting problems that don’t actually exist is one of the fastest ways to stress a healthy grow into trouble. We also dig into Instagram and comparison bias. How scrolling perfect-looking grows can quietly wreck your confidence and decision-making. Impatience comes up at every stage, from germination to harvest, along with confirmation bias when diagnosing issues and the way a grower’s stress can transfer directly into how plants are treated. We also discuss the skill of learning when to leave plants alone, trusting the process, and remembering the real end goal — healthy plants and enjoyable results, not chasing perfection. This episode is all about mindset, restraint, and confidence. A must-listen if you’ve ever checked your tent ten times a day or talked yourself into fixing something that wasn’t broken.
