"SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) – A warming climate could boost the medicinal and psychoactive properties of plants including cannabis, that according to experts.
Lewis Ziska, a plant physiologist with the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Research Service, said his research shows that marijuana grown outdoors will likely become stronger and require less water to thrive.
...This all comes as the marijuana market becomes more and more crowded in Northern California and the state continues to deal with a drought. California’s so-called Emerald Triangle [marijuana growing counties of Mendocino, Humboldt, Trinity] has seen a doubling of pot production from 2009 to 2012, that according to a 2014 California Department of Fish and Wildlife study."
