Cannabis Infused Honey: Its Therapeutic Benefits. Cannabis honey is honey that contains marijuana.  However, many people are unaware of the relationship between bees and marijuana.  Colton O’Brien, published a study in Crossing Borders: Entomology in a Changing World in November 2018 about how bees began visiting hemp fields in Colorado.

According to this study, 23 species of bees living in the state were caught in traps set in marijuana fields in a single month (August). The researcher added that he experimented because he noticed a constant buzzing sound as he walked through the fields.  This research suggested that marijuana could be a ‘rescue’ crop for bees because it flowers during a period when other crops have finished their blooming periods that is between late July and early September.

Final Thoughts on Cannabis Honey

Bees should be valued more than we do because it is the only insect that creates food edible for humans.  It should be emphasized that Honey is believed to be the only known food source that contains all the water, enzymes, vitamins, and minerals to sustain life.  However, the catastrophic damage to the environment caused by humans is rapidly diminishing the world’s supply of animal and plant life including the decline of bees and other pollinators which must be classified as a huge concern because of their importance on our food supply. The therapeutic benefits of the honey produced by these bees have been known for centuries, the same for marijuana.
