Cannamama Chats With Tiff

We love having a team full of parents on our team - such a wealth of support and commiseration on the good and the bad days. While most of us are still in the toddler and early-childhood days, Tiff’s experiences as a mom of teens gives us a light at the end of the tantrum tunnel (and absolutely terrifies us at the same time - the problems only seem to get more complicated!!) Read on to hear some of Tiffany’s thoughts on parenting, cannabis, and how she integrates the two.

Learning As We Grow: A Look at Innovative Cannabis Growing Techniques

There are a LOT of people out there growing great cannabis with drastically differing views on what will yield the healthiest, most desirable crops. This isn’t new. Humans have always competed with each other and with mother nature, trying to manipulate and cultivate the most fruitful possible outcome. Through all of this passionate disagreement around grow methods, there has never been a consensus reached. In some ways I hope there never is, because competition does breed some pretty amazing innovation. The best part is that, ultimately, this will always come down to each unique stoner, deciding their stance by what provides them with the experience they love.

Herbals for Menstruators

I believe that we need to support menstruators with a widened margin for care and love, and provide each other with the space to support our bodies in ways that feel right. A connection with the gifts of plants has been just one way that I have been able to experience this, but we can continually inspire new ways for menstruators to access care and create their own. A care that feels safe, understood, and even respected. Choosing to care for yourself during cycle highs and lows is a pathway towards global healing. 

And from this, ripples of care flow from menstruators to our community as a whole.

Exploring CBD

Cannabis plants are made up of multiple compounds that when broken down and consumed interact within our body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS). Second to THC, CBD is the most prevalent cannabinoid within cannabis plants (Jikomes., 2021). CBD and THC alike, are derived from the plant, therefore they’re called phytocannabinoids (Jikomes., 2021). Our body generates its own naturally occurring cannabinoids called endocannabinoids (Jikomes., 2021).
