This year could be extremely interesting for the global cannabis opinion

If past performance is any indication of future performances, then this 2020 might be one year full of changes and advancements for the cannabis landscape. Even though is moving at a slower pace than expected, the culture around the plant continues to bring new and fresh ideas. Gathering information from experts and information on the web, these are five predictions for cannabis during this year from GrowthOp.

Not that their effects have been fully understood or discovered, but tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) might be getting a break since new cannabinoids might be getting more attention. Cannabinoids such as cannabigerol (CBG) or tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA), among others, are being identified as potential sources for other kinds of effects and medicinal uses.

With all the health issues and concerns that vaping devices faced during 2019, it is fair to think that extra effort will really take a big hit on this part of the industry. Even the FDA is working on slowing down the industry, though it doesn’t sound strong enough to kill it completely.

The third prediction is not that positive for CBD and is directed at its popularity. Sometimes a fast walk towards fame might also mean a fast walk out of the scenario. Having been advertised basically as a cure for everything, CBD might lose some followers as more studies will make people understand even though it helps a lot is not a miracle worker.

For 2020, more development is expected in the sense of creating more and new strains. This year will certainly be a crazy one in terms of flavors and new combinations, also coming with exotic names, which has been a fun part of it since the beginning. And lastly, for this year the prediction regarding prices is that they will fluctuate a lot this year, each state will handle different prices which benefits some but not all.
