It’s that time again, folks. ISMOKE weekly Roundup!
This week we have seen great growth on both our facebook and Instagram pages, which shows that we are getting the ISMOKE message out to more cannabis users in the UK and worldwide than ever before.
Thanks for the continued support! Check out some of the articles we posted this week across the ISMOKE network:
ISMOKE Interviews London Grow Gang
London Grow Gang is a Cannabis horticulturist who we had the pleasure of meeting recently at a Cannabis Social event in London.
He’s a passionate grower, ensuring upmost quality in his strains and also carrying the tagline ‘Highly Organic’, which we thought was great.
We also thought it would be great for our readers if we sat down to interview London Grow Gang to discuss Cannabis, the law and horticulture.
Medipen CBD Vape Pen Review
We have had a big focus on the benefits of CBD recently, and the plan is to eventually write a comprehensive guide for ISMOKE about buying Cannabidiol products in the UK, including best methods for consumption, which products to use, and ideal dosage, depending on requirements.
Although we have been using CBD supplements for the past couple of months, we haven’t tried vaping it, so we were excited to receive a CBD Vape Pen this week from Medipen.co

Cannabis Prices Are Falling Across the US Due to Legalisation
In 2015 experts predicted that cannabis prices would rise as a result of legalisation and taxation. Now it has become apparent that the opposite has happened, with cannabis prices dropping in America.
There were initial price hikes just after legalisation in the uncertain environment as businesses began to be set up around cannabis, but now overall the retail price of cannabis is going down across the States – as regulation replaces prohibition, the risks of growing cannabis are going down, and therefore so is the cost.
Responding to drug harms: Can the UK learn from Portugal?
I’m always on the look out for interesting things to film for Let Me Look TV. So when I stumbled across an event called “Responding to drug harms: Can the UK learn from Portugal?” I thought it might be worth checking out.
For pro-reform advocates like myself, Portugal is often cited as a shining example of how drugs reform works – it is the way forward. Personally, I still think they still need to fully legalise cannabis and regulate it in some way, but that’s a different discussion.
The thing that made me roll my eyes initially was way the title ‘Responding to drug harms’ seemed fairly suggestive, so my expectations weren’t that high at first glance. But after checking out the panellists, I saw it was going to be an interesting event for sure.
