Welcome to CannaQAwiki, an encyclopedia for Cannabis and hemp, and the scientific and regulatory aspects that surround them. Welcome to CannaQAWiki. This wiki continues to be a work in progress, but new content is slowly being added. For example, check out the latest third edition of our guide Past, Present, and Future of Cannabis Laboratory Testing and Regulation in the United States. Check back soon for additional content!

Get started New to CannaQAwiki? We're kind of new to this as well. In case you don't know where to begin, here are some starting points for you:   Our content so far... Our journal articles so far... Cannabis Cannabis (drug) Hemp Cannabinoid Terpene Seed-to-sale

Articles and reference works Our wiki is young and will take time to grow. However, here are some of our important topical articles and guides, as well as reference works like lists and tables (which specifically appear in the "RefWork" namespace):   Topical articles and guides: NEW: Past, Present, and Future of Cannabis Laboratory Testing and Regulation in the United States, Third Edition Starting a Cannabis Testing Laboratory Cannabis testing regulations in Canada Cannabis testing regulations in California Our reference works (so far): Known cannabis associations, organizations, and interest groups Known cannabis testing regulations in the United States Known licensed cannabis cultivators in North America Known licensed cannabis testing laboratories in North America Known vendors of cannabis testing instruments, software, and equipment

News and updates March 13, 2020: I'm pleased to announce that the third edition of Past, Present, and Future of Cannabis Laboratory Testing and Regulation in the United States is now complete. Started in 2017, the guide sought to provide a balanced look at the industry surrounding the Cannabis plant, particularly in the United States, with a strong focus on laboratory testing. As more U.S. states (and other countries) have legalized the plant's use, the cannabis industry continues to rapidly evolve in ways expected and unexpected. This third edition builds on previous material, adding more historical perspective on changing regulations, standards, and social impacts. It also adds timely topics such as how the insurance market is catering to cannabis companies, and it highlights new efforts to standardize not only laboratory testing but also accreditation of testing labs. One other major move: we've moved primary hosting to this wiki from LIMSwiki, a wiki similar in vein to this one but with a strong focus on laboratory informatics technology. Enjoy!

Most notable over the last month we've added a section for and created a "glossary" of sorts for listing most of the available wiki content. As new pages get added, they are getting categorized into the glossary, which is also now available as a "List of articles" link in the left-hand site navigation. Future plans include adding more encyclopedic content, journal articles, and self-developed research. Stay tuned! Shawn Douglas (talk) 21:26, 22 April 2019 (UTC) — Read more archived news —
