    In this weeks cannabis news we discuss the following stories: Macky: Cannabis smuggler knows most of his drugs mules 'will get caught' - BBC News  Smee: Strain Review Roundup What Worth Smoking in July 2026 Dr.Margaret: Heavy marijuana smoking may increase cancer risk, researchers warn | ScienceDaily   This week we discuss a BBC report featuring a convicted cannabis smuggler who admits that many of the people recruited as drug mules are expected to get caught, raising questions about organised crime and the people being exploited to carry out these operations. Smee joins us with his latest strain roundup, highlighting what's been impressing him and what's worth checking out this month. Dr. Margaret looks at new research investigating whether heavy, long-term cannabis use may be associated with an increased risk of certain cancers, and we discuss what the study actually found, its limitations, and why it's important to look beyond the headlines. We also have an interesting conversation about the future of cannabis reform in the UK, following reports that Andy Burnham has reached out to Gary Youds and his team for advice on cannabis policy. Could this signal a serious shift in the conversation around legalisation if Burnham becomes Britain's next Prime Minister? We share our thoughts on what it could mean for patients, home growers, and the wider cannabis community.

    Fungus Gnats, Soil vs Coco, Flowering Stress, £300 Grow Setup & Bringing Pollinated Plants Indoors | Listener Mail #6

    It's Listener Mail time once again, and this week's episode is packed with practical growing advice, community questions, and the usual dose of High on Home Grown banter! We kick things off by discussing one of the most common indoor growing pests: fungus gnats. The panel shares their favourite methods for preventing and controlling infestations, including biological controls like beneficial nematodes, and how to stop these annoying little pests before they become a real problem. We also dive into one of the biggest decisions new growers face: soil or coco? We compare the pros and cons of each medium, explain why coco often produces faster growth, and highlight the common mistakes growers make when switching from soil to coco for the first time. The conversation then turns to late-flower stress techniques, discussing whether methods like extended darkness, drought stress, or ice water actually increase resin production, or if they're simply long-standing grower myths. We also answer a great question about how we'd each spend £300 on a beginner grow setup, sharing what we'd prioritise, where we'd save money, and what we'd avoid. Finally, we tackle an important question about bringing a pollinated outdoor plant back indoors, explaining how long pollen remains viable and what precautions growers should take to avoid accidentally seeding the rest of their crop. As always, it's another relaxed episode full of useful growing knowledge, community questions, plenty of laughs, and even a philosophical discussion about just how much wood a woodchuck could chuck... 🌐 Website: https://highonhomegrown.com 💬 Discord: https://discord.gg/sqYGkF4xyQ 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/highonhomegrown

    Cal-Mag & LEDs, Transplanting Autos, Cleaning Grow Lights, Outdoor Stretch & Story Time? | Listener Mail #4

    It's Listener Mail time again, and this week the High on Home Grown community keeps the questions coming, covering everything from grow room troubleshooting to podcast ideas, with plenty of laughs in between! We kick things off by discussing whether LED grow lights really cause calcium and magnesium deficiencies, or if there's more to the story than growers often realise. We also answer questions about transplanting autoflowers, when (or if!) it's worth doing, and the best timing if you decide to give it a try. The panel also chats about electrical safety in the grow room, how much equipment can realistically be run from a single socket, and why modern LED lighting systems sometimes seem to come with enough cables to wire an entire house! We also discuss whether LED fixtures should be cleaned, how often, and the safest way to keep them running efficiently for years. Away from the grow room, we answer questions about when outdoor cannabis plants typically begin their stretch in northern climates, whether UK growers should be worried about potential changes to seed laws, and even discuss the possibility of introducing more of Margaret's much-loved story time episodes in the future. As always, it's another relaxed Listener Mail packed with practical growing advice, community questions, plenty of banter, and the usual dose of Lobby Lobster madness. 🌐 Website: https://highonhomegrown.com 💬 Discord: https://discord.gg/sqYGkF4xyQ 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/highonhomegrown
