Well, the cannabis that came out of it, though โ and this is one of the reasons a lot of the clinical stuff people have kind of been like, oh, I don't know how representative this is because it reflects cannabis that I would say is more from like the 70s or 80s. So it would be like 5% to 9% kind of THC cannabis. Now โ

when you put someone in a lab setting and you get them to smoke to level of intoxication, people would take, you know, whatever, eight tokes, let's say, something like that. And that's where they would stop. And so, you know, a lot of the labs that use this have always been like, our people who are regular cannabis users are getting high off of it.

It's not as potent as the stuff that's on the street, but they're clearly getting intoxicated from it and it's giving us reliable data. So when they started looking at the blood levels of THC that you achieve, it was around 100 nanograms per ml of THC, give or take. That seemed to be where it was. Now, because of the way that you can legally study cannabis in the States,

You couldn't just go down to a dispensary and buy the products that everyone on the street are using, which is kind of like it's been a weird thing for a lot of people because they're like, why wouldn't you study what we're using? But because of the legal aspects of this, you couldn't bring those products into the lab. They'd never been standardized.

No one knew exactly what was in them, pesticides, all this other stuff that could influence it. So from a safety perspective, it was always like, no, you use the cannabis that's sourced from NIDA.

So there's a group in Colorado, Kent Hutchinson and Angela Bryan and Cinnamon Bidwell have kind of, I would say, became very creative actually to figure out how to study cannabis that's being used, I call it, in the wild, like in kind of an ecological setting, let's say. And so they created what was called the Canavan.

And the Canavan was a way to study people using products on the street, but not have them come into a laboratory setting where it was complicated. And so what they would do is they would drive the Canavan to someone's house, but they'd be parked on the street.
