The 2020 Illinois High Times Cannabis Cup: People’s Choice Edition arrived at almost the exact moment Illinois cannabis entered a new era.

Knowing when an indoor cannabis plant has reached maturity is more complicated than counting days on a calendar. Seed catalogs, breeder descriptions, and cultivation references often give approximate flowering periods, but those estimates are only starting points. Genetics, phenotype, environmental conditions, plant health, lighting… Read more: How to Know When Indoor Cannabis Plants Are Mature and Approaching Harvest - Black Kush
Black Kush is a name that has been attached to several unrelated cannabis strains over the years, but the version covered here is the documented release from The Cali Connection. Its identity comes from a pairing of the breeder’s Girl Scout Cookies genetics with… Read more: Black Kush - Clementine Slush
Imagine cutting into a perfectly ripe clementine while a jar of old-school Kush sits open nearby, and the unusual character of Clementine Slush begins to make sense. Rather than pursuing the candy-heavy direction common to many modern marijuana hybrids, this strain puts bright citrus… Read more: Clementine Slush - Bellini
Bellini borrows its name from the peach-and-citrus cocktail, but the comparison works because the flower genuinely moves in that direction rather than simply wearing a fashionable dessert label. Fresh buds can release ripe peach, orange peel, soft citrus, and creamy sweetness before a quieter… Read more: Bellini - Mint Milano
Mint Milano is the kind of cannabis strain that makes more sense after the second smell than the first. Vanilla and sweet citrus provide an approachable introduction, but neither stays in control for long. Fresh mint begins cutting through the sweetness, followed by hash,… Read more: Mint Milano - Fruit Tree
Fruit Tree approaches the idea of “fruity cannabis” from a more complex direction than its name initially suggests. Open a jar and cherry may provide the first recognizable note, but it is quickly surrounded by lavender, sweet hash, floral perfume, ripe fruit, and a… Read more: Fruit Tree - Cherries Jubilee
Cherries Jubilee feels less like a modern candy strain and more like an old California dessert reinterpreted through cannabis. The first aroma can be bright and fruit-driven, with cherry and dark berries appearing immediately, yet that sweetness quickly sinks into chocolate, hash, musk, and… Read more: Cherries Jubilee - Strawberry Tiramisu
Strawberry Tiramisu sounds like a strain engineered around a dessert menu, yet its ancestry gives the flower considerably more depth than simple sweetness. Fresh strawberry and cream occupy the most obvious aromatic layer, but beneath them sit lemony OG, earthy hash, vanilla, pastry, and… Read more: Strawberry Tiramisu - Italian Ice
Italian Ice is a fitting name for cannabis that seems to move between fruit, cream, and something much darker as soon as the flowers are handled. At first, ripe blueberry and citrus can dominate, giving the impression of a sweet frozen dessert. Crush a… Read more: Italian Ice - Corleone Kush
Corleone Kush belongs to a period of California cannabis breeding when a powerful Kush did not need candy terpenes, elaborate color, or a six-strain pedigree to make an impression. Open a jar and the personality is immediate: sharp lemon cuts through an earthy, incense-heavy… Read more: Corleone Kush - Fruit Cup
Fruit Cup is a strain whose name only tells half the story. Fruit is certainly present, but the flower is far more interesting than a bowl of generic berry sweetness. Lavender drifts through bright citrus; cool mint appears beside chocolate and hash; floral notes… Read more: Fruit Cup - DEA Says No Marijuana Overdose Deaths Have Been Reported in Updated 2026 Drug Guide
The Drug Enforcement Administration has reaffirmed an unusual fact about marijuana in its updated 2026 drug education materials: the federal agency says no deaths from an overdose of marijuana have been reported. The statement appears in the marijuana section of the DEA’s Drugs of… Read more: DEA Says No Marijuana Overdose Deaths Have Been Reported in Updated 2026 Drug Guide - Passion Berry
Passion Berry does not smell much like the dark, jammy berry cannabis its name might suggest. The first impression is considerably more tropical: ripe mango, guava, fresh citrus, and soft fruit sweetness drift above a heavier base of hash, earth, and cocoa. That unusual… Read more: Passion Berry - Tiramisu
Tiramisu is one of the rare dessert-named cannabis strains whose flavor actually has a convincing relationship to the food on the label. Vanilla and creamy sweetness arrive first, but the flower does not stop at sugar. Cocoa, coffee-like bitterness, buttery richness, earth, and a… Read more: Tiramisu - Cannabis and Xarelto: What Research Says About Marijuana and Rivaroxaban
Xarelto has changed anticoagulation treatment by allowing many patients to prevent dangerous blood clots without the frequent INR testing associated with warfarin. Its active ingredient, rivaroxaban, is prescribed for conditions including atrial fibrillation, deep-vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, prevention of recurrent blood clots, and prevention… Read more: Cannabis and Xarelto: What Research Says About Marijuana and Rivaroxaban - Marijuana and Warfarin: What Research Says About Cannabis, INR, and Bleeding Risk
Warfarin is one of the medications for which seemingly small changes in drug metabolism can have serious consequences.

Cannabis use has become common enough that anesthesiologists increasingly encounter patients who smoke marijuana, use THC edibles, vape cannabis concentrates, take CBD products, or use prescription cannabinoid medications before surgery. For many patients, marijuana may seem unrelated to anesthesia, especially when it is used… Read more: Cannabis and Anesthesia: What Research Says About Marijuana Use Before Surgery - Sativex: What Research Says About the THC and CBD Prescription Cannabis Medicine
Sativex occupies an unusual place in the history of medical cannabis. Rather than being dried marijuana, a dispensary tincture, or a purified single cannabinoid, it is a standardized prescription medicine manufactured from extracts of Cannabis sativa. Also known by the generic name nabiximols, Sativex… Read more: Sativex: What Research Says About the THC and CBD Prescription Cannabis Medicine - Cannabis for Diabetic Nerve Pain: What Research Says About Marijuana and Diabetic Neuropathy
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy can transform ordinary sensations into persistent burning, stabbing, tingling, electric-shock-like pain, often beginning in the feet and becoming particularly troublesome at night. For some people, even the pressure of socks or bed sheets can become painful. The American Diabetes Association has… Read more: Cannabis for Diabetic Nerve Pain: What Research Says About Marijuana and Diabetic Neuropathy
