Liner notes

Live from the "Rosenthal Empire" in Oakland! We welcome the Guru of Ganja, Ed Rosenthal, and associate editor Greg Zeman to discuss their landmark book, "Beyond Buds: Next Generation." We dive deep into the technical evolution of concentrates-from the early days of open-blasting to the clinical precision of modern labs. Ed explains the "Outlaw Science" of why traditional curing might be ruining your buds, the rise of "sterile" triploid genetics, and the economics of the $500 pound. We also discuss the social impact of inexpensive cannabis, the shift from "Trash-to-Stash" to "Whole Plant Extraction," and why the next big thing in cannabis is personalized terpene profiles.
