Shutterstock More than two years after Michigan voters approved marijuana for adult use, residents convicted of many pot-related crimes that have now been legalized have an opportunity to expunge them from their records. Governor Gretchen Whitmer signed a sweeping clean slate package of bills in October that will automatically expunge some criminal records in 2023, while others have to be applied for. On Monday, Attorney General Dana Nessel announced a new website whereMichigan residents can learn about how to begin the process expunge the marijuana-related criminal records that require an application. Michiganders voted to legalize recreational marijuana use years ago, Nessel said in a statement. Residents should rightfully be able to eliminate convictions for actions that are no longer considered a crime in our state.
High Times is the oldest and probably most recognizable brand in marijuana.
High Times magazine has been around since 1974, when even talking about the stuff was pretty much forbidden, and blew minds by printing big, beautiful color pictures of trichome-laden buds. In addition to advocacy and culture, the magazine informed you how to produce stuff like what was in the pictures and where to get the equipment to do it. Now that marijuana is becoming more and more legal certainly aided by HT efforts the folks who brought you the pictures are now bringing you the real buds. High Times, now more than a magazine, is blowing minds again with its lines of top-shelf, limited edition weed that dropped last week in 22 Michigan dispensaries.

Short s Brewing has expanded its collaboration with Jolly Edibles to include a new line of cannabis-gummies inspired by its Moscow Mule-flavored Mule Beer.
Like a Moscow Mule or Short s Mule Beer, the Jolly gummies have strong lime and ginger flavors, using real fruit and sugar.
And like Jolly s other gummies, they contain a strong cannabis kick.
These use sativa cannabis, so expect a strong buzz, with 10 mg of THC per gummy. (Of course, if you re ever unsure of the dosage for you, you can always start with a small piece and wait about an hour to see how your body handles it.)
Rachel King. When Rachel King decided to expand her California-based cannabis-infused baked goods company Kaneh Co. to Michigan, she says she did it partially because of the Great Lakes State s huge marijuana market, which reported just under $1 billion in sales last year. There was another reason, too. Like seemingly everyone, she has a connection here. Michigan s also near and dear to my heart my husband s from Midland, she says. We go out to Michigan like once or twice a year . I jumped at the opportunity to be able to be somewhere that I could possibly visit family. King was a pastry chef in San Diego for about 10 years, where she earned kudos from
