Why does this blog exist? Why are you reading these words? Why do we do any of the things we do? Is there a point to existence other than to exist?
Well, perhaps I can make an attempt here at answering that first question. The other two, well, you’re on your own with those.
Current Cannabis Reviews Lack Personal Detail
The deeper I get into the wild and wonderful world of cannabis, the more questions I have, particularly about different strains, their flavor, smell, and the effect smoked.
However, whenever I would do a Google search to learn more about what I had just purchased or was considering purchasing, I was always left with a sense of disappointment.
For far too many strains, the published materials describing them are woefully inadequate.
“Uplifting, euphoric, calming”…I feel like these three words are used to describe 95% of cannabis for sale today. If most cannabis is only described with such a limited vocabulary, however, then how much are we really learning when we read these types of short, repeated descriptions?
The Hallowed Gram sets out to describe cannabis in more detail. It is my personal goal to introduce and explain cannabis to as many curious people as possible. Today’s cannabis descriptions are the equivalent of watching 720p television with blown-out speakers; you can’t discern shit.
The Hallowed Gram aims to deliver to you, the humble web searcher, a more high-definition description of these magical plants with which you have found yourself infatuated. We’re talking 4K with 3D immersive sound levels of description; that is the bar I’m aiming for here.
To Provide Additional Context
In addition to strain reviews, this website will explore peripheral topics such as culture, music, equipment, travel, food, edibles, activism, and the cannabis community.
The Hallowed Gram is designed to shed a bright clear light on the topic of cannabis to present it to a world that I firmly believe could stand to benefit significantly from opening their hearts and lungs to this transformative plant.
Not everything published on The Hallowed Gram will be educational. There will be plenty of recreational content as well as I attempt to draw lines connecting cannabis to other parts of life as it can augment a lot of different sensations and experiences.
To Connect Smokers
What am I looking to get out of publishing all of this? Well, ideally, I would like to help connect cannabis enthusiasts to one another and hopefully make a few friends along the way.
The more we can all share the innate positivity and comradery that cannabis brings, the more new converts we can invite into our community.
There will probably be more “why” motivators as this website grows and develops, but at least at the outset, the above-mentioned is what I’m focusing on.
