Cannabis Now is a consumer cannabis magazine, published in print and online, covering the plant and the people around it.
Who they are
A national print and digital magazine written for the cannabis consumer, with named contributors handling distinct beats rather than an anonymous staff feed.
What they cover
Culture and the figures who shaped legalisation, cultivation from seed selection through harvest, cannabinoid and terpene science, edibles and infused cooking, product features, and the policy fights over hemp and federal law. Recipes, buying guides and profiles run alongside the reporting.
Format and cadence
Numbered print issues, now well past fifty, paired with a website that publishes continuously. A run of stories carries an in-the-magazine tag marking what appeared in the print edition first, so the archive reads as a magazine with a live front end attached.
Who it's for
Consumers and growers rather than executives. The tone assumes genuine interest in how cannabis is made and what it does, without needing a licence or a spreadsheet to follow along.
Where to find them
The website and the print edition, with subscriptions available for the magazine.
Background and significance
Founded in 2010, Cannabis Now developed as a consumer magazine spanning news, legislation, horticulture, medicine, culture and economic trends. Its publishing history bridges the medical-marijuana era, state adult-use expansion and the emergence of cannabis as a national consumer category.
Distinctive role
Cannabis Now retains the structure of an issue-based magazine while also maintaining a rolling website. That combination supports longer profiles, cultivation features and cultural essays alongside timely news.
