Freezeing cannabis buds with liquid nitrogen

In the ever-evolving world of cannabis cultivation and consumption, enthusiasts and scientists alike are pushing the boundaries of innovation. One such groundbreaking technique gaining popularity is the use of liquid nitrogen to freeze cannabis. This process, known as cryopreservation, involves subjecting the plant material to ultra-low temperatures, typically around -196 degrees Celsius (-321 degrees Fahrenheit).

The primary motivation behind freezing cannabis with liquid nitrogen lies in preserving its delicate compounds, particularly cannabinoids and terpenes. These volatile molecules are responsible for the plant's unique effects and flavors, but they are also susceptible to degradation over time and exposure to heat or light. By freezing cannabis, enthusiasts hope to slow down the degradation process and maintain the potency and flavor profile of their favorite strains.

Liquid nitrogen's ultra-low temperature ensures rapid freezing, preventing the formation of ice crystals that could damage the delicate trichomes. Additionally, cryopreservation is believed to inhibit the activity of enzymes responsible for cannabinoid degradation. While this method may seem extreme, proponents argue that it offers a new frontier for preserving cannabis quality, catering to connoisseurs who seek the ultimate experience in flavor and potency.

As the cannabis industry continues to evolve, the use of liquid nitrogen adds a fascinating chapter to the book of cultivation techniques, inviting both skepticism and excitement among enthusiasts willing to explore the frigid frontier of cannabis preservation.

The Half-Legal Cannabis Trap - POLITICO

The Half-Legal Cannabis Trap - POLITICO LOS ANGELES — Everything about Kelvin’s job in a neighborhood southwest of downtown seemed like any other assignment, if not a little more exciting. The 40-year-old, who had previously worked as an electrician, had been employed since 2015 by a private security company that contracted him out to guard marijuana dispensaries. In 2019, he was protecting one of the thousand or so cannabis stores in California’s biggest city—part of an industry that has grown less and less underground since 1996, when the state first legalized medical marijuana. Kelvin, who asked not to be identified beyond his middle name to avoid professional retaliation, doesn’t smoke pot, but says the gig felt like the future. He grew up in a time when other Black people he knew in Los Angeles would go to jail for possessing even small amounts of the drug. Now, customers could walk into shops like the one he was guarding, many of which can be identified by green crosses on
