The California market is “budding” (pun intended), and there is a new player on the team; Laze Cannabis. As one of the latest products to hit the California recreational marijuana market, Laze is officially brought to you by Just Mary, Greenwood Distro, and entertainment mastermind, Hazey Taughtme™️. The parties came together to form the first childproof one ounce can with a patent-pending lid. Laze will offer consumers an inside look at making a black-owned cannabis brand through a web series to be announced in the upcoming weeks.

Better known as “Haze,” Steven Palmer is a builder, strategist, entrepreneur, and social justice advocate. He aims to expand the cannabis industry for people of color, creating a larger market share in one of the country’s fastest-growing sectors.

“I build brands. I connect the dots. I teach. I create.” Haze said.

Background on Haze

A native of York, Pennsylvania, Haze, otherwise known as Hazey Taughtme, is the CEO of Haze Ent. It is widely regarded as one of the nation’s leading brand managers. Haze is the founder/owner and the publicist for multiple companies, including Miracle Mile Studio, Black Cannabis Magazine, Laze Cannabis, and Royal Danks.

Haze has been instrumental in building the career of popular speaker and community activist Freeway Rick Ross. Like so many other clients, he has helped transform Freeway Rick Ross’ image from former drug kingpin to cannabis entrepreneur, motivational speaker, and community social justice advocate. Haze himself had experienced some of the pain Freeway Rick Ross had experienced, enduring prison and moving through the criminal justice system, and emerging as a new person. Haze helped manage Freeway Rick Ross’s image change, including speaking tours, book deals, film promotions, etc.

As a businessman, manager, and marketer, Haze has been at the forefront of creating opportunities for people of color in the cannabis industry. He works closely with the National Diversity & Inclusion Cannabis Alliance (NDICA) to increase aspiring entrepreneurs’ awareness and opportunities.

Haze has also worked closely in the entertainment industry. He’s been a music enthusiast since he was four years old, and he aspired to become an artist himself. At the age of 18, Haze wrote and sang with a group of three boys from the Harlem Boys Choir. Growing up, his father encouraged him, “If you want to pursue a music career, you also have to play an instrument.” Haze took to playing the piano and keyboards for several years. “Even today, knowing how to play an instrument gives you an advantage in the industry,” he explains.

Haze’s work ethic is the stuff of legend. He’s continuously serving his clients, partners, companies, and anyone else who’s actively working with him, working from 7 AM until midnight each day, and doing it all over again the next day. He claims he doesn’t have much of a personal life but is simply motivated to help create the most significant value and buzz for his clients that he possibly can. Before COVID-19 turned the year 2020 upside down, Haze put together a cannabis/CBD wellness experience for the Super Bowl party this past February for rapper and mogul Diddy.

The sky is the limit for Haze and Laze Cannabis and we look foward to watching this dynamic partnership come to life!

Things are Getting Seedy – New Cannabis App Coming Late 2020

2020 has been a wild ride so far, to say the least. There have been some downfalls, but there certainly hasn’t been a lack of innovation during these trying times. Many people, mainly serial entrepreneurs, have taken the time “away” from their regular routines and started focusing on other ventures to capitalize on new markets and areas of growth. Some in the cannabis and CBD world have put their marketing skills to the test by launching and promoting their own brands. Others have taken the time to build software and digital products to further amplify their reach.

Here at Plants Before Pills, we are no stranger to the latest cannabis, CBD, and Kratom trends. We review items such as CBD Oils all the way down to cannabis accessories, but this will be the first time we’ve learned about a new mobile app that looks to disrupt a very segmented space.

This new app is called Seedy.

Seedy Founder Thomas Lopez has a vision of an online marketplace designed for home cannabis growers by growers where information, equipment, and seeds are shared and where a like-minded community thrives. Set to launch in late 2020, Seedy is the world’s first digital eco-system where growers can connect and sell products, used and new equipment, and other essential growing products like “nutes” and heritage seed strains.

By identifying an emerging market for home cultivators focusing on wellness and producing naturally harvested Cannabis and CBD/CBG, Seedy will become synonymous with the home cultivation movement as legalization spreads, and experienced growers turn to digital platforms for equipment and information.

Founder Lopez’s Entrepreneurial spirit has led to him holding over twenty unique patents in multiple industries. His inspiration for Seedy comes from more than 3 decades of experience in brand development, product engineering, and marketing. Seedy is the next step in home cannabis cultivation. It allows users to connect on one central platform creating a space similar to Amazon, or Etsy where small vendors can reach thousands of potential buyers while creating a digital community.

As COVID has crippled the economy in many ways, the cannabis market has been on fire, with many cannabis stocks and companies seeing all-time highs (no pun intended). The Seedy mobile app looks to be a great way to further augment the cannabis industry and connect industry professionals, growers, cultivators, and the like. The cannabis mobile app scene has seen some “censoring” but this app looks to be one that could provide incredible value to its users.

We are primed and ready to try this new app out when it debuts later this year.
