    FlowGardens Gorgeous CBD Flower w/Erich Maelzer & David Miller

    FlowGardens Gorgeous CBD Flower w/Erich Maelzer & David Miller

    Episode Notes
    This week I have the pleasure of bringing you Erich and David of FlowGardens, a Tennessee based company that is cultivating the widest variety and highest quality smokeable "hemp flower" I've ever come across. I use quotes because calling this hemp does not do it justice...this is potent, high quality cannabis. The flower they're growing is rich with terpenes, flavonoids, phytocannabinoids and all checks in under 0.3% THC. Best of all, it's all perfectly legal under the 2018 Farm Bill that allowed for "hemp" production and can be derived right to your home.

    We discuss:


    Tennessee laws, education and activism
    Cultivation practices - hydroponic vs soil
    Hunting for unique and quality phenotypes
    Exploring lesser known cannabinoids like CBC and CBG
    Runaway THC levels and the importance of cannabinoid balance

    How Clinical Research Is Done w/Christina DiArcangelo

    Episode Notes
    It is my honor to welcome Christina back onto the show for the third time. She's a serial entrepreneur, founding several different companies and non-profits, many of which directly contribute to furthering our knowledge about and access to medical cannabis. In this episode we discuss the under appreciated health benefits of terpenes, cannabinoids that help with Covid, and DiArc gives a solid overview of the many processes involved with conducting clinical research. Lots to learn here folks. Whenever Christina is around it's going to be fun!
