As the largest consumer market, cannabis is ripe for female empowerment. Because females tend to be more familiar with cannabis, they are more likely to experiment with wholesale marijuana seeds and new products. The rise of female cannabis consumers will probably spur a boom in new products and disrupt the male-dominated cannabis industry. However, there are still many obstacles to overcome before the industry can truly benefit from female empowerment. To help women succeed in the industry, here are five ways to empower them.
CBD Full Spectrum Hemp Extract
Unlike the common misconception that CBD is a non-psychoactive chemical, Full Spectrum Hemp Extract contains a diverse mix of cannabinoids. These include terpenes, flavonoids, and CBD. They may also contain trace amounts of THC, which is perfectly legal per federal law. Full Spectrum Hemp Extract also contains multivitamins, antioxidants, and natural flavors derived from grape and elderberry juice concentrate.
Personalized Consultations
Personalized consultations are a new way for women in the cannabis industry to get access to the resources they need to succeed.

Kika's Cannabis Dispensary
The dispensary is an experiment in inclusivity and diversity. While marijuana has long been criminalized, women are still largely underrepresented in the cannabis industry. And a lack of female ownership in dispensaries can contribute to a culture of misogyny and sexism. The female-run Kika's dispensary aims to eliminate these issues, while also providing a welcoming environment for all patients.
