Tropical breezes, gorgeous weather, clean air, volcanic soil – these factors and more make the Island Nation of Hawaii an ideal stomping ground for marijuana cultivators and producers. Over the course of the great pot debate and a steaming green path of debate, the Aloha State joined the pro-cannabis front by legalizing medical-grade marijuana (although full recreational use of the drug is still up for debate). Needless to say, Hawaii seems like a tricky situation on the political front, being an island with limited access outside airplanes and ships. However, our 50th state has somehow managed to push ahead. Now, one dispensary on the Polynesian nation has produced a new marijuana bud for medical use. Let’s take a closer look at the Aloha Green Apothecary and find out about this new arrival.
Historical Relationship with Marijuana
Ultimately, historians (and the public for that matter) are not fully aware of when the little green plant first arrived on the shores of this Pacific island chain, but Hawaii has been the seat of the legend of the pakalolo (numbing leaf) for generations. Over the years, family members passed down the techniques for growing these plants to their youngsters and produced some of the most well-known pot strains on the market including Kona Gold, Puna Budder, and much more.
Island Apothecary
Nestled on the island of Oahu, the Aloha Green Apothecary (formerly part of the Dole Plantation) is operated by a team of loyal locals who are committed to producing high-quality, healthy materials. Furthermore, Aloha Green is also the first Hawaiian-licensed dispensary to use multiple greenhouses as part of floral growth (a big help, considering that the island produces some of the largest quantities of electricity in the U.S.). Processes like hand-trimming and wood chip insulation also provide a welcoming, nurturing environment for the little plants themselves. If you are going to resort to medical-grade cannabis as a form of medication, Aloha Green might be the one worth looking at (if you are willing to brave the more than 6-hour plane flight to get there).
