Introducing Advocates
for Medical Cannabis’s “Green Star Review”. This is an opportunity to put the
“medical” back in cannabis in Washington
State
- Pesticides – Pesticides are a big deal for patients. In our review we will be looking at what pesticides are used and are they labeled clearly. Preferably, the products we review have no pesticides, but we do recognize the need for pesticides in some cases when producing cannabis.
- Potency and Terpene Profiles – Terpenes determine the effects of each cannabis strain. Our reviews will look at what terpenes are present, are they labeled? And the general potency and medical effect of each product.
- Finish – The finishing touches for cannabis really matter. The green Star Review will examine the flush, trim and cure of cannabis flower, as well as, the effectiveness of “gassing” for solvent based extracts.
- Advocacy – This won’t be discussed in every review, but when possible we’d like to recognize good things businesses are doing for the medical cannabis community in general. “Do they support home grows?”, “What sort of environmentally friendly practices do they embrace, sustainable packaging, water management and light energy use?”
Advocates for

consumers can nominate players in the I-502 market place they think deserve a
“Green Star”. If you have a favorite cannabis product you think puts the
“medical” in “medical cannabis”, send us an email to emailmmcws@gmail.com and let Advocates for Medical Cannabis know
about your favorite medical cannabis product.
