More Americans now consume cannabis than smoke ci******es.

According to a study published in the journal Addictive Behaviors analyzing federal NSDUH data, adult cannabis-only use climbed to 10.6%, officially overtaking cigarette-only use, which dropped to 8.8%.

Key findings from the report:
• Cannabis-only use saw a steady rise from 3.9% in 2015–2019 to 10.6% by 2023.
• Combustible cigarette use fell from 15% down to 8.8% over the same timeline.
• Dual use remained flat, suggesting consumers are actively substituting to***co with cannabis rather than using both.
• Gallup polling reflects a similar shift, reporting young adults are now over five times more likely to consume cannabis than smoke to***co.

As legalization expands and public perceptions shift, the data points to a lasting change in consumer habits nationwide.

In late September, the chief administrative law judge (ALJ) at the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), Derek C. Julius, paused the pending rulemaking proceedings to reschedule all ma*****na to Schedule III. The stay order delays the issuance of the ALJ’s recommendation to the agency while he considers whether to admit and receive briefing on a new U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) report concerning federal drug scheduling policies.

Importantly, this rescheduling rulemaking is distinct from the April 2026 final rule that rescheduled to Schedule III any Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved ma*****na drug products and ma*****na subject to a state medical ma*****na license. That partial rescheduling rule did not resolve the separate question of whether all ma*****na should move from Schedule I to Schedule III.

America’s $28 billion h**p-derived THC market—the industry responsible for popular Delta-8 gummies, farm-bill-compliant THC seltzers, and low-dose cannabis drinks—is facing a near-total federal ban that could wipe out over 200,000 jobs and billions in tax revenue almost overnight.

When lawmakers passed the 2018 Farm Bill to legalise industrial h**p, they created a legal loophole: products containing less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight were federally legal. Entrepreneurs quickly seized on this, extracting naturally occurring cannabinoids and chemically converting or concentrating them into potent, intoxicating products sold in mainstream grocery stores, smoke shops, and liquor retailers across the country.

Now, Congress is pushing to close that loophole. Key provisions added to federal funding legislation target impairing h**p compounds, placing thousands of small farms, beverage processors, labs, and retailers on a strict countdown to a nationwide ban.

Stepping into the world of cannabis entrepreneurship is an exciting, fast growing venture, but turning that vision into a reality requires serious strategy, starting with the all important licensing process.

Before you even fill out an application, the key is knowing your lane: whether you plan to cultivate, retail, manufacture, deliver, or run an ancillary service that does not handle the plant directly, each path comes with its own strict rules. Because regulations vary dramatically by state, county, and city, building a solid, comprehensive business plan first is non negotiable.

You will need rock solid Standard Operating Procedures (especially for security, compliance, and POS tracking), realistic financial models factoring in nuances like 280E tax codes, creative funding solutions, secured compliant real estate, and a reliable team.

While the application process is competitive and complex, you do not have to navigate the shifting landscape alone. Connecting with mentors, legal experts, and experienced operators at industry events like CannaCon can give you the real world roadmap needed to stay compliant, stand out, and launch with confidence

Virginia took a step toward launching its recreational ma*****na market this month after years of legislative limbo.

The Virginia Cannabis Control Authority released its first draft of regulations for prospective businesses, including registration fees, limits on customer purchases, and even how delivery operators would be permitted.

Virginia approved legislation legalizing retail ma*****na sales this year. The law allows up to 350 recreational ma*****na stores, 100 microbusinesses and five tier V cultivation facilities to open across the state.

Under the draft regulations, retail ma*****na stores will pay a $4,000 application fee, with initial authorization costing $20,000. Annual renewal and reinspection fees would cost $17,500. Medical dispensaries pay the same application fee, but an initial permit costs $40,000, with annual renewal and inspection fees totaling $35,000. A retail license only allows the sale of ma*****na products, not the ability to grow or process.
