THC-A Flower—How Do Processing & Handling Influence Its Chemical Structure? The chemical structure of THC-A flower is highly dependent on the conditions under which it is processed and handled. As a non-psychoactive precursor to THC, THC-A exists in a delicate form that can undergo molecular changes when exposed to factors such as heat, light, and […]
The rise of private jet travel with NetJets, FXJets, VistaJet and Wheels Up, from empty-leg efficiency to the boom in pet-inclusive flights and time-value spending.

High Times Is Back. Here’s What We Built in 5.5 Months
High Times officially turned the lights back on July 16, 2025.
We didn’t relaunch anything. We reopened the site and started publishing again.
And pretty quickly, it became clear that the thing still worked. When the doors open and the work is real, people show up. Writers. Readers. Artists. Growers. Longtime supporters and people discovering High Times for the first time.
Consider this a mid-flight check-in. Here’s what we’ve been working on, with you in the room.
The Work: Publishing Again, Every Day
A big part of this year was reopening the pipeline. Submissions, pitches, ideas, drafts. Some from longtime voices, some from people publishing with us for the first time.
The goal wasn’t volume. It was openness. Letting the work come in, reading everything, and publishing what felt honest and worth sharing.
Since reopening, High Times has published more than 500 articles from over 100 contributors.
That includes reporting, interviews, essays, cultural pieces, and commentary. Some fast. Some long. Some deeply researched. Some personal. The point wasn’t uniformity. It was getting the work out and letting it breathe.
We also brought back the idea of a daily digital cover story, treating the homepage like a front page again. Not everything had to be breaking news. Some days it was about context. Some days reflection. Some days just telling a story that felt worth telling.
That rhythm mattered. It gave the site a pulse again.
Print: Back Where It Belongs
The return of the print magazine was one of the most meaningful moments of the year.
The 50th Anniversary Issue wasn’t built as a nostalgia project. It was built to reconnect the dots between where this magazine came from and where it’s going. Legacy voices alongside new ones. Archive alongside original reporting. A magazine meant to be held, not skimmed.
Thousands of copies went directly to readers, without a retail push or ad campaign. That alone said a lot.
Print is staying central to what we do. The next issue is already in production, and 2026 will include at least four collectible print editions, one per quarter, each with its own identity and focus. You can get a full-year subscription here.
Community: Where This Really Lives
If there’s one thing that defined these past months, it’s participation.
Over 1,000 people applied for Editor-in-Kief
280+ joined our growing Contributor Network
More than 200 people sent us their Nug Shots
That kind of response only happens when people feel invited in.
Nug Shots, in particular, became something special. Even with social platforms limiting cannabis imagery, people kept submitting. That alone says a lot.
Alongside the site, we brought back the weekly email. You can subscribe here.
Simple by design. A snapshot of what we published, what we’re thinking about, and what’s worth your time. No algorithms. No noise. Just a direct line to the work.
It’s been a place for ideas, arguments, art, information, humor, and resistance. A place where culture could live without being sanitized or packaged for approval.
We came back because that still matters.
For the community. For the conversations. For the people who care enough to show up.
Five and a half months in, we’re proud of what’s been built.
The Real Challenge Facing Cannabis Businesses Isn’t Demand — It’s Access.
Cannabis businesses don’t struggle because the market isn’t there. They struggle because they’re forced to operate inside systems that weren’t built for them — especially when it comes to capital, banking, insurance, and long-term financial support. Licensed operators face: Limited access to traditional financing Higher operating and compliance costs Punitive tax structures like 280E Financial…
