HEMP 2018-2025

A scorched field at dusk with small hemp plants growing behind yellow crime scene tape. The headline reads “HEMP 2018–2025.” Text explains that Congress is quietly criminalizing hemp-derived THC through changes in a spending bill that could eliminate delta 8, delta 10, and full-spectrum products. Pot Culture Magazine branding appears at the bottom.

Congress just buried hemp inside the 2025 spending bill, redefining the crop to outlaw hemp-derived THC products that built a $28 billion market. Farmers, brands, and workers face erasure without a vote or debate. Pot Culture Magazine exposes how lawmakers quietly re-criminalized hemp and why voices from Cheech & Chong to NORML say this fight is far from over.

The Last Prisoners of Weed

A Pot Culture Magazine feature image titled The Last Prisoners of Weed. The design shows a shadowed figure standing near a barred prison cell door under dim orange lighting. Large orange text reads: “The Last Prisoners of Weed.” Below, smaller white text reads: “Legal cannabis earns billions while thousands remain locked away for the same plant.” Branding along the bottom reads “PotCultureMagazine.com | ©2025PotCultureMagazine/ArtDept.

Legal cannabis earns billions while thousands remain locked away for the same plant. From Mississippi’s life term to Louisiana’s thirty five years to the federal forty year sentence in Texas, broken expungements and empty pardons keep prohibition alive. Pot Culture Magazine follows the names, numbers, and families still trapped behind America’s fake freedom.

The South’s Quiet Cannabis Rebellion

An American flag waves in front of a Southern-style government building at sunset, with a large cannabis leaf overlay in the foreground. The text reads “The South’s Quiet Cannabis Shift,” under the category tag “Politics.” The image represents shifting attitudes toward cannabis reform in southern U.S. states. PotCultureMagazine.com and ©2025PotCultureMagazine/ArtDept appear at the bottom.

Across Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama, quiet legalization is replacing old fear. Dispensaries open, hemp farms thrive, and police turn away from small possession. Lawmakers who once preached prohibition now profit from regulation. The Bible Belt’s cannabis rebellion is alive and growing, and the South is no longer waiting for Washington to catch up.

No One’s Giving Away $60 Gummies, Karen

A Halloween scene featuring a bowl of assorted candy on a porch, lit by a glowing jack-o’-lantern in the background. The image includes visible candy brands and a “Trick or Treat” sign. The warm lighting and fall atmosphere emphasize the message printed above: “No one’s giving away $60 gummies, Karen.” The Pot Culture Magazine logo and copyright credit appear at the bottom.

Each October, the same urban legend returns: strangers handing out weed candy. NORML and UVA Health say it’s pure fiction. No one’s giving away $60 gummies, but accidental ingestion is real, driven by bad packaging and lazy storage. The true Halloween threat isn’t monsters or dealers, it’s fear and ignorance disguised as public safety.

Stop Scaring Senior Stoners

Feature image showing an older woman outdoors at golden hour, peacefully smoking a joint with her eyes closed. The atmosphere is calm and warm, evoking relaxation and normalcy. The text reads “Stop Scaring Senior Stoners” with a copper-orange banner labeled “Health & Culture” at the top. The Pot Culture Magazine logo and copyright ©2025PotCultureMagazine/ArtDept appear at the bottom, along with PotCultureMagazine.com.

The San Francisco Chronicle’s new article warns that cannabis is dangerous for older adults, but the science says otherwise. Studies show benefits for pain, sleep, and muscle spasticity when used responsibly. The real risk comes from misinformation, fear, and the unregulated hemp market, not from seniors using cannabis with care.
